The mission of Jesus; “not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance” (2 Pet 3:9 NIV), is also our mission.
Some highlights of the month
We are missing Pa Isaac: Isaac Glady one of our powerful, sacrificial, committed field leaders for years died from an unknown illness. We grieve. His testimony was that WSL found him as a womanizing alcoholic destined for Hell. With us he received his salvation, was baptized and married his wife on our compound. His family like most Liberian families struggle for a daily meal and housing. We are committed to our sacrificial leaders. We are covering the medical and funeral expenses. We have also committed to providing his widow and their children with food and their children’s school fees for one year. Be in prayer for those he has left behind.
Society Devils: Another masked devil leader has repented and is trying to leave the society. Leaving can be fatal.

My heart dropped: Well funded Muslim missionaries from Pakistan are in Liberia. Their mission: a mosque in every town. Before the Liberian war there were 7 mosques in Monrovia, the capital city, now there are over 100. Throughout Europe and Africa Muslims are gaining rapidly. Remember the Bible book Ephesus? That city and country, now Turkey, was Christian and is now 98% Muslim. There is a fierce spiritual war waging let us not sleep or be unaware. Do not be confused, Islam is a tool of Satan and is powerfully evil.
Wordsower Bible Institute: 23 completed the level 1 two week class. They have been sent out. We are now receiving calls for supplies. Praise God for our press shop! We printed over 29,000 pages of training material in January.

6,000: That is the number of additional Bibles we acquired in January.
National Armed forces of Liberia: The main army troop base of Liberia is forcefully advancing. We have done several trainings there. The army of our Lord, in the barracks, is armed, organized and going from house to house as Christ and His original disciples did. They are distributing 1,000 lessons each week, one in each home. The lessons teach about salvation, faith, repentance, forgiveness, sin and how to live the Christian life. The army is prepared to disciple those who will present themselves. From great sowing will come a great harvest.
A Modern Paul? About 6 months ago Wordsower started to have regular “services” in a bar. Some were converted, baptized, and trained. They are now doing the same with their friends. One from the bar, Prince, was a persecutor and harasser of the new converts. He was a violent leader. A few times he and his friends would beat them and rob them. He hated them and me.
To our relief he left town. While away he became deathly sick. He panicked and in his spirit felt he had to come find me. When he returned to Zwedru he had a dream. In the dream an angel told him to find Kim, that Kim had the solution to his problem. He truly gave himself to Christ, completed our Bible marking, is evangelizing and teaching others. Those he once persecuted are now the ones training him and the persecutor has become the persecuted.
He has changed so much it is hard to recognize him. He was full of drunkenness, arrogance, disrespect and hatred. You could see it in his face. Now he is full of humility, kindness and love. This can also be seen in his face. This is what spiritual transformation looks like.
He is now on his way to Monrovia, the capital, to get treatment. Remember him in your prayers.

| PTP Refugee Camp |
PTP Refugee Camp: It is the largest refugee camp in West Africa. There are approximately 13,000 there now. The camp is just a 30 minute bike trip away. (Solo Refugee camp is another camp we work in that is also about 30 minutes away). We have been working in them for 2 years. This month we will have a level 1 two week training with them in our Bible Institute in French. Other refugees will attend another two week class in April. After the class we want to put translated lessons in each home as we are doing in the army barracks. We want to train and send an army of Christian warriors back into Ivory Coast. WSL has plans on entering it with them this year.

January, 2014 Ministry Expense Report
$2,369 – Pens, folders, Bibles, mission trips feeding, etc. We acquired 6,000 Bibles this month.
$1,056 – Motor bike gas and repair, we have 10 bikes. We buy gas in bulk at about $5.00 a gallon.
$444 - Print Shop: This includes all expenses for printing Bible training material
$10 - Audio Lessons: Recording and distributing audio lessons for the illiterate
$794 - Bible Institute classes: 24 students completed a two week class. This includes housing, feeding, transportation, etc.
$729 – Humanitarian assistance: This includes food (average cost is $1.50 a day for food) rent, home repair, etc. Most of this fund assists our sacrificial leaders that live in extreme poverty.
$52 – Medical expenses (average treatment cost per person is $1.00 - $10.00).
$1,380 – Food and house supplies (close estimate). Our core team consists of 13 adults and 17 children. That averages out to $1.53 a day per person to cover, clothes, food, batteries, soap etc. Really, our team uses less than that per day because we feed visitors every day from the interior, refugees, and locals from our house funds.
$375 – Vacation pay. We give each of our full time leaders $125 and a two week vacation each year. This covered 3 leaders vacations for 2013. They worked all year but still get the bonus.
