![]() On ELWA compound From September 2020 Newsletter - Subscribe For nearly three years now, the Evangelical Churches of Liberia (ECOL) have been slowly building the International Church of Monrovia (ICM) on ELWA Campus. Every week for years, the local congregation has been collecting their small funds to build a church. In a country where daily wages are $2-$5 dollars a day, this small congregations accomplishment is amazing. When completed, this new church will serve the large community around ELWA on Sundays and throughout the week with adult and youth programs. Moses Paye, the president of the 103 Evangelical Churches of Liberia (ECOL) says, "this new church will also be the central gathering place for ECOL pastor conferences. Pastors outside of the ECOL churches are also invited to attend." The conferences are attended by hundreds of church leaders throughout Liberia. Currently, conferences are held outdoors. One American pastor who has spoken as past conferences remembered a time when it started raining during the conference and he immediately stood and started looking for shelter but then noticed that none of the attendees were moving. He realized they came to hear the word of God (many from remote villages) and rain wasn't going to stop them. Humbled, he sat back down and joined the pastors in worship to God. ELWA Ministries Association USA has been watching the congregations faithful giving and building progress for years now and we would love to bless their sacrificial giving with a donation to their building fund. It will cost about $45,000 to get this building under roof with doors and windows. We would love to raise this amount for the exterior while they continue to sacrificially give to complete the interior. We believe this will be a huge encouragement for them without diminishing all that they have done. Donate Comments are closed.
