Our Ministry
What We Do
Pastoral training, Study Bibles, and evangelism across Liberia.
01
Pastoral Training
The Heartbeat of Our Ministry
Pastoral training is the heartbeat of our ministry. Most pastors in Liberia do not have the level of education common in America, yet they carry the responsibility of shepherding entire congregations.
We equip them with sound biblical teaching through visiting American pastors and professors, and through the leadership of Pastor Richelieu Reeves and his team.
Conferences at the Penuel Training Center
We hold 3–4 day conferences with 200–400 attendees at our Penuel Training Center, where pastors are fed, housed, and equipped with God’s Word. The center provides electricity, running water, and housing that allows pastors to focus fully on the teaching.
Smaller Regional Gatherings
Smaller conferences are held throughout the nation by Pastor Richelieu and his team. Occasionally, visiting American pastors also teach in these more remote settings, ensuring that leaders who cannot travel to the training center still receive vital biblical instruction.
BTCP
Bible Training Center for Pastors
Pastors who never had access to formal theological education undertake a 520‑hour, 10‑course curriculum through the BTCP program. Since the inception of Grace & Truth Liberia Ministry, Inc., more than 70 pastors have completed the BTCP curriculum through training efforts we have sponsored in partnership with several American organizations, visiting American pastors and professors, and Liberian pastors.
Graduation isn’t just a certificate — it’s a milestone of hope for pastors and their congregations.

Study Bibles Ministry
Putting God’s Word in every pastor’s hands
How It Began
In February 2022, after teaching 375 pastors at Monrovia Christian Fellowship, our team saw firsthand that many pastors did not even have a Bible — and almost none had a Study Bible. Some carried torn copies, some only a small New Testament, and many had nothing at all.
During a lunch afterward, Pastor “Duke” of the host church said something that shaped our direction:
You all are doing the most important work you can do in Liberia by teaching our people the Word of God. They need to know its doctrines and truth.
~Pastor Momolu Dukuly (Pastor Duke)
His words confirmed what we had witnessed, and right there at that table we committed to providing solid, doctrinally faithful Study Bibles to pastors across Liberia.
God’s Provision
Back in the United States, we began searching for ways to fund the project. Four hundred Study Bibles would cost at least $20,000. But God provided in a remarkable way: Ligonier Ministries donated all 400 ESV Reformed Study Bibles for free, asking only that we cover international shipping.
Getting the Bibles to Liberia
Shipping the Bibles by cargo ship took more than two months, but they arrived safely. All 400 were distributed to pastors across the country. Later, Ligonier donated another 200 Study Bibles, which are still being distributed today.
Lasting Impact
What began in 2022 as a simple realization — that hundreds of Liberian pastors were preaching without Bibles or any study tools — has grown into one of the most meaningful parts of our ministry. Pastors across Liberia received these Study Bibles with deep gratitude, some holding a Study Bible for the first time in their lives. These Bibles continue to strengthen churches today, equipping pastors with the tools they need to teach Scripture faithfully and confidently.

Evangelism
Real and Difficult Work
Evangelism in Liberia is not theoretical or convenient. It is real, physical, and often difficult work carried out in cities, villages, rural communities, the African bush, rain‑forest regions, schools, marketplaces, and remote mountain areas where people need to hear the truth of God’s Word.
We equip evangelism teams, train pastors, and go directly into communities where biblical teaching is scarce, false doctrine is common, and many have never heard a clear presentation of the Gospel.
Urban Outreach
Teams share the Gospel in Monrovia neighborhoods, showing the Jesus Film and witnessing door to door. In one outreach, 36 people received Christ — including two Muslims who heard the Gospel clearly for the first time. Our teams often minister in areas affected by drug addiction, theft, and spiritual darkness, bringing hope where it is most needed.

Rural & Remote Villages
Evangelists cross rivers and forest paths to reach towns where pastors lacked training. In Nimba County, dozens professed faith; in other villages, people repented after hearing the true Gospel for the first time. These journeys are long and difficult, but they bring light into places that have lived in spiritual darkness for generations.
Schools
Liberia’s schools welcome Christian teaching in a way that would be impossible in the United States. In 2025, our team reached more than a dozen schools in Careysburg and surrounding counties, sharing the Gospel with 2,400 students. Hundreds professed faith, discipleship classes formed, and baptisms followed. Large day conferences allowed us to reach even more students at once. With Liberia’s average age under 18, this movement among young people is one of the most strategic opportunities to shape the nation’s future for Christ.
