The love of our parents, has made us determined to fulfill their final wishes. We hope you also join us on this wonderful ministry experience, to help bring hope and healing to the Children of Liberia by resourcing their parents, spiritual leaders, and community leaders.

“As we grow into our golden years, we age with pride knowing that we raised you well. We will not always be with you, but we ask you to carry on the one thing that mattered most to us. This teaching of Christ, love one another as I have loved you. Even though our means are limited, that should not stop you from helping others. Therefore, we charge you our children to use your God's given talents and gifts, to form a vehicle for which our family can show love to the children of Liberia.”
