"For What It's Worth . . . "

Our friend, Dirk Helmling, from the US, is a missionary pastor to native Liberian pastors. He has committed his life to disciple these people so they in turn can spread the Good News of the Gospel to their own people! He travels to Liberia several times a year to minister to his group of Liberian pastors.

Dirk is in Liberia right now and was able to meet with Chris, our ground worker in Liberia. Hearts for Africa was able to send along with Dirk 2 suitcases of supplies for our sponsored kids as well as some gifts from their sponsoring families here in Canada. We also sent along some New Testament Bibles for the members of Chris's weekly Bible Study. For these people, it will be their first Bible ever that they are able to keep for themselves!! We praise God for this! We will post pictures of this distribution as soon as we get them from Chris.
What a blessing it was for Chris to receive this encouragement from Dirk as well as some Christian mentorship!! You can read more about Dirk's visit with Chris on his blog at:

HFA will be working more with Dirk in the future in not only humanitarian projects, but also in helping to feed the souls of these people with the Truth of the Gospel to transform their lives for eternity! Please pray with us as we move forward in this direction. We are very excited to see where God will lead in this way and will continue to keep you updated on future projects and events in Liberia!
