Pastor Wesley called me from Liberia
yesterday morning to announce that the Radio
Station had just broadcast its first test.
He says the signal is strong and sounds very
excited. An old contact, Pastor Sawyer (from
Queens, NY) helped when he heard the news
about the fire. I am grateful for that sign
of support. May God bless this endeavor as
Pastor Wesley continues to work while its
day. This is a non-profit station so they
are not able to sell advertisements. The
generator that Service to Servants installed
onsite runs on fuel oil. That is how they
are able to produce electricity for the
studio and transmitter.
Pastor Wesley says that the local church has
about 85 people in Sunday attendance and
that everyone is working together. I hope to
one day return to Liberia and see all that
has happened.
I came to the church this morning to open
the doors for those who will commemorate the
life and ministry of Dr. Louis Hertz. Dr.
Hertz apparently was a great friend to those
who have struggled with drug and alcohol
addiction.
A friend that I met through the Union Gospel
Mission (Leonard from Lincoln) asked if they
could host the Memorial Service for Dr.
Hertz here. The folks are just starting to
arrive.
Leonard introduced me to Pastor Charles Kellar
who is participating in the Memorial. Pastor Kellar once was an Interim Pastor here at
Bell Road.
