He was born and raised in Liberia during a time of severe Civil War. He hid in the bush to avoid getting drafted into what were later called The Lost Boys, children forced to be soldiers. Ultimately, he and his family fled Liberia becoming refugees. But through it all, God had a plan for this young boy. This Refugee would become a Rescuer, sharing God’s love and salvation across the continent of Africa. And today, he works with numerous organizations whose mission is to communicate the Good News Gospel Message of Christ to the lost. Hear his powerful story this weekend on Missions Today!
