THREE'S

GOOD news comes in three's sometimes

May 2024 ministry included a wonderful training opportunity in Liberia, West Africa. This was a long overdue visit to the Marshall city where the VOX Radio station was installed about 19 miles East of the capital City of Monrovia on Thanksgiving Day 2017. Changes that week required us to purchase and install the station in a 40 foot shipping container where they have operated the station for six long years.
They have moved into their excellent new building (still under construction) where they enjoy a state of the art on-air studio. This past year with a new 100 foot tower with a four bay antenna their audience expanded exponentially. The next week  their signal was sent to the 200 foot tower of the international broadcasting station ELWA (Eternal Love Winning Africa) for a listening of audience of 1.7 million people. 

ONE Following four lectures, a few of the staff attended the session that used the principles of Developing and Managing Projects to establish a NewService to be hosted by the VOX 97.5 FM station for the benefit of other Christian format radio stations in Africa.

TWO On Sunday afternoon a ceremony was held honoring David & Sharon Kealy by naming the MUSIC PRODUCTION STUDIO at the newly opened station building. It will be used to encourage young people to write and record music enabling them to use their God given talents that can provide a music career. Their music will be played on the radio station and distributed throughout the area. It was an encouragement when five local pastors attended the ceremony and while standing in the sweltering room one of the pastors said, "my church will provide air conditioning for this studio!" What a wonderful gift from a local church.

THREE In November 2023 Joseph N. Boakai, Sr. was elected President of Liberia. His campaign was to encourage international development of Liberian businesses to grow the financial strength of the country. His catch phrase was for businesses to THINKING LIBERIA, LOVING LIBERIA AND BUILDING LIBERIA. This is exactly what VOX Liberia, with their radio station, and Reaching People far from God are accomplishing in the country. 

An opportunity presented itself for David and Joseph Kebbie, founder, CEO of VOX Radio to be invited to present an INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIP AWARD to the President.

Actually there was a number FOUR on the schedule. During the scheduling of the meeting with the President, the founder of the BBI University, Luther Tarpeh, invited me to lecture to the Media department of the school. Overnight I meshed the four lectures that were being presented to the Vox Radio staff into a one-hour lecture. What a privilege and joy for me to spend this time with future leaders in Liberia. Every one of the lectures are presented with a Christian DNA that encourages them to Think, Love and Build Liberia to a nation that will honor God.
