The Bible club, which is designed specifically for kids, wanted to give its “graduates” a surprise send-off. The event took place on the 20th of June at the chapel. Many were involved and participated in a big way. Marylynn, the group’s founder, brought in snacks. Ken Isige, student council chairman, was the speaker for the event. The invited guest was Rev. Kivanguli, dean of community life, who brought books for the graduates in English and Kiswahili. David Rowbory played the keyboard.
Others who have been a big part of Bible club and made appearance on that day were Rose Siboi, Alemseged Ketema, Peter Kamande, Fortuna Tioye, Noo Alemeseged, Foluke Bosedi Ola, Winnie Muli, Catherine Nongnide and Rachel Kisyula.

Matthew, you graduated from NEGST with a Master’s in missions in 2007. What have you been doing since then?
I serve as the resident pastor of the Evangelical Free Church of Monrovia located in the predominantly Muslim community of Kende, outside of Monrovia. The town of 1,000 is populated mostly by youths and children.
Today many of the youths, women and children attend our church. We give God the glory! My desire and passion is to see the church empower and equip people to reach the unreached and unchurched with the gospel of Christ. My focus is Muslims in West Africa, beginning with my country—Liberia.
Wow! Your ministry sounds attractive. Can you give us some specifics?
I lead a six-member team of our church in a ministry to homeless and Read more »
