Liberian kids get a break the whole month of July for
vacation Bible school! Many are employed making
cement bricks or selling homemade meals, and don’t
attend any kind of school at all.
makeover. One man was particularly
moved. “Still on his own spiritual
journey,” says George, “it was clear that
he was willing to sense and see what
the Lord could do. He has wept over
what he’s seen God do with this ministry.
I told him God would make Himself
known to him,” says George, adding
that this man has a Christian wife.
“I believe God gave us this property
for a reason. His presence is very real.”
Immersion Outfitters also hosts an
annual men’s event called Man Up.
Originally, it consisted of bringing in
“dynamic speakers from all over,” as
George puts it.
“The last two years things have
changed,” George says. “We pray a lot
more now and give a
platform to local
pastors and ministries
to connect men
at the event with a
local person. We
also prayed over a
guy whose back was
injured. He had
needed surgery, but
he was healed.”
They also gather,
as did Nehemiah and
his people, and read
scripture.
Thank you NATURA for making this story possible to share.
One man at Man Up became a
Christian on the spot and was baptized
after seeing his friend baptized.
Immersion Outfitters also hosts
mission trips to its satellite ministry in
Liberia, partnering with Faith Comes
By Hearing. This audio Bible ministry
translates the scriptures into recordings.
“This chapter is really one that
changed our ministry,” George says.
“We visit remote areas. We sleep on the
floor in huts. Some of the villages we
visit have never heard the gospel.
Wherever the men go, the whole town
goes in that area of Africa.”
Another George, one named George
Monten Toe, leads the Liberian branch.
He serves orphans at Village of the
Americas, an old, abandoned U.S. air
base. They also do vacation Bible
school there for the children, so generational
change takes place.
“We teach them to read and write,”
George says. “Two members of ministry
live full-time with the kids to teach
them.”
George described himself as
“excited” by this upcoming trip since
he has ordered 40 new radios in five
new languages to be dispersed to
various tribes. “Simple obedience can
lead us to do things we never dreamt of
before. Then God shows up and you
experience His might and His power.”
Immersion has a simple biblical model
seeing lots of fruit: preach and teach
the Word. Disciple and then send them
out to serve. It looks a lot like what we
read about the early church in the book
of Acts.
