Day 15

Today is our third Sunday in Liberia. We are all so blessed to be able to be here and visiting with our friends. The morning started like most days with breakfast, oatmeal today, and coffee. Because we were visiting another one of CBC’s missionaries, Pastor Titus Namen, we were going to travel to the church. The church is about a 30 minute drive from Emmanuel’s home. Titus Pastor’s the United Liberian Inland Church in the Sinkor community. He’s been at this church since October of 2024. This congregation is new to all of us from CBC. It was good to meet the people from this church. Here are a few pictures of our visit to their church as well as a short video of the choir. Reminded me of the movie ’Sister Act’.

Since I was preaching today, my view was from the pulpit area.
It was my privilege to preach today.
You can see Renee and Leo sitting to the right of the flag.

After the service we headed outside and Renee said she was a little tired, so we made plans to drop her off at Emmanuel’s home so she could rest and Leo and I would got to Titus and Mercy’s for lunch. We were able to get a picture before we headed out.

We got back to Emmanuel’s, Renee went to lie down and I changed into shorts and flip flops. We then headed to Titus’s home. Leo and I enjoyed a lunch with them and we got a few pictures from around their home.

Titus’s house now, with nice shade trees growing around now.
We enjoyed a visit in the shade.
Titus and Mercy now have a car they can use from their church.
All but little Titus around for the picture.
Everyone around during our visit. Typical Liberian home.

We then decided to stop and visit a friend we’ve known for 10 years. Elizabeth Mulbah has a home close to Titus and Mercy. She is trying to make things work, but life is pretty hard sometimes. She would like to build a home someday. She said for $8000 she could build. We pray along with her for something to work out someday. Elizabeth is a mom of 8 (2 daughters live with her and one granddaughter) and a grandmother of 4.

After a short visit with Elizabeth we headed back to Emmanuel’s. Titus and Mercy followed because they wanted to see Renee. It was sweet of Mercy and Yeitoyee to stay with her awhile. It was also nice to see two of our missionaries together, visiting and catching up with each other’s life.
