"One of the areas in which we can serve is that of the youth ministry. In our post civil war setting in Liberia, the youth are vulnerable. They are in need of formation. They are in need of moral direction and guidance. In the area of Education the Church in Liberia has for most part, offered a purely academic education. But during the civil war, she had to move to another level in order to serve the needs of youth."
