Each conference costs include administrative items, food for participants, gasoline for generators, and lodging for visitors.
Funding Opportunities
Pastor's Children's Education FundOne of the impediments to significant participation of the Church in all aspects of the reconstruction of post-conflict Liberia is the practical education of children. Pastors especially suffer from this as they, more than most, understand the need for education as a way of breaking the bondage of the past and the destructive and dark spiritual legacy of the bush culture. Currently, there are no public schools provided by the government and so each family must try to send their children to the few private schools available at a cost of approximately $250 US per year. With the average pastor’s salary being in the neighborhood of $50-100/month, you can see that this presents a hardship that drives many of them to devote more and more of their time to secular activities to try to pay for this education. This de-focusing of those God has given a heart for and a calling to ministry is discouraging.
The goal of the fund is to create a reservoir of money that can go to pastors on the basis of financial need, ministry performance, and strategic position to accomplish Jesus’ mission. Each scholarship will be overseen by a board who will accept applications, review the needs and set priorities. Accountability, documentation, and child performance will all be required as a way of insuring the highest level of stewardship of this program.
