Why We Serve in Liberia

Liberia is the 4th poorest country in the world with 85% of its population surviving on less than $2 a day. So the needs of the country—and of ministry—are great. These include education, medical care, agriculture, disability, therapy, jobs and job training, and ministering to orphans and street children.

What We Strive to Provide to Every Child We Serve

Our belief in God and His grace in our lives energizes us for a specific work. With God’s help, every child we serve will be taught the gospel and how to be followers of Christ, not want for food, shelter, medical care, and clothing, receive a quality education to provide a foundation for their future, and have access to continued love and support while transitioning into adult living.

Key Areas of Ministry in Liberia

Discipleship

All of our children attend church on a regular basis, and many of the older children are directly involved in church activities, including singing in choir, playing musical instruments, teaching younger children, and being on the dance team. At our homes we have daily devotions, sometimes led by the older children. Additionally, caregivers, staff, and volunteers mentor the kids, encouraging them in their faith and helping them overcome challenge as they grow.

Education

Our ministry site has a school on campus which serves the resident children and children from surrounding communities. Our school follows the national school curriculum but has a Christian focus. This school provides education from pre-K through 12th grade. We also provide a feeding program so all students and staff can have a nutritious lunch.

Safe Homes

Around 76 children live in a group setting at our ministry site in Liberia. They range in age from 5 to 20 years old.  Lifesong Liberia provides food, clothing, education, and medical care for the children who live here. The children are divided into a girls and boys dorm and each dorm has resident caregivers who are responsible for the care and wellbeing of the children.

Vocational Training

We have a Vocational College for teenagers and young adults in the community. The Vocational College has two sites, and the resident teenagers, as well as every graduate we serve, can participate in vocational classes that will help them transition to independent living. Classes cover a variety of topics and provide hands-on experiences and training in computers, carpentry, cosmetology, catering, tailoring, electricity, interior design, and more.
