East Ohio was blessed to have two visitors from Liberia, Shaffa Seward LAC UMVIM coordinator and Rev. Albert Barchue, ordained elder and district superintendent. Both were building relationships and making connections for the mission of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the development of Liberia.
Rev. Barchue preached at Celebration UMC in the North Coast District, toured the Nehemiah Mission, Flat Rock Home, and Canton Calvary Mission, North Coast District office, Church of the Savior Cleveland Heights, visited with the cabinet and Bishop Hopkins, and the Pedaling Parsons, and spoke at Faith UMC in North Canton, and then headed off to the Detroit Annual Conference.
Shaffa Seward worked to coordinate future UMVIM trips to Liberia. Shaffa spent time with Gay Street UMC, Faith UMC, Andover UMC, Macedonia UMC, Garfield UMC, Farmer to Farmer, and Pedaling Parsons. All of these groups are planning mission trips to Liberia in 2013! Stay tuned for more details and how you can be involved.
