We are overjoyed to receive the heartfelt photos sent by Archbishop Nathaniel Kpah Gbah of Jehovah Saints Church in Liberia, West Africa. These images showcase the children of Jehovah Saints Church, a vibrant and hopeful reminder of God’s blessings and the future of His kingdom.
Children: A Gift and Responsibility
Children are a precious gift from God, entrusted to us to love, nurture, and guide. They represent innocence, hope, and the continuation of faith across generations. Their joy, curiosity, and potential remind us of our responsibility to provide them with spiritual, emotional, and physical care.
Why Children Are Important in the World:
Future Leaders: Children are the leaders, innovators, and peacemakers of tomorrow.
Reflection of God’s Love: Their innocence and purity reflect God’s unconditional love.
Agents of Change: Empowered children can transform families, communities, and nations.
Faith Bearers: They carry forward the teachings of Christ and the mission of the Church.
Psalm 127:3: "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him."
Proverbs 22:6: "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."

The photos he shared highlight the smiles and spirits of the children who are part of the church community. These children are being raised in the knowledge of God’s love and the teachings of Jesus Christ, fostering a foundation of faith and purpose.
Matthew 19:14: "Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’"
Supporting the Children of Liberia
As a global family of faith, we are called to support the efforts of Archbishop Gbah and others like him who dedicate their lives to nurturing children. Whether through prayer, resources, or encouragement, our collective efforts can make a lasting impact.

Mark 9:37: "Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me."

Isaiah 54:13: "All your children will be taught by the Lord, and great will be their peace."
For Archbishop Gbah and His Ministry: That God may strengthen and guide him as he leads the church and cares for the children.
Galatians 6:9: "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
For the Global Church: That we may unite in our mission to uplift and support children worldwide.
Matthew 25:40: "The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’"
The children of Jehovah Saints Church in Liberia remind us of the beauty and importance of investing in the next generation. Let us continue to pray for their growth and well-being, and for the ministry of Archbishop Gbah as he faithfully serves his community.
Message from the Chief Archbishop Michael Hopkins
The Chief Archbishop welcomes you all with open arms and a heart full of love. Jehovah, Jesus, and the Holy Angels love you deeply and unconditionally. Their love is infinite and steadfast, guiding us through every step of our faith journey.
The Love of Jehovah, Jesus, and the Holy Angels
The love of Jehovah, Jesus, and the Holy Angels is a cornerstone of our faith. It is a love that surpasses all understanding, a divine gift that assures us of our worth and purpose in God’s plan. This love is not only for the righteous but for all who seek Him with a sincere heart.
Jeremiah 31:3: "The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying: ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.’"
Romans 8:38-39: "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
The Importance of Children in God’s Kingdom
In the Bible, Jesus teaches us about the value of children and their special place in God’s kingdom. Children are a reflection of purity, humility, and faith, qualities that we must all strive to embody.
Matthew 19:14: "Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’"
Mark 10:15: "Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."
Children are not only the future of the Church but also a reminder of the simplicity and trust we should have in our relationship with God. Their innocence and openness to love reflect the essence of God’s kingdom.
A Call to Embrace God’s Love
As we gather in faith and fellowship, let us open our hearts to the love of Jehovah, Jesus, and the Holy Angels. Let us also cherish and nurture the children among us, for they are the embodiment of God’s kingdom on earth.
Proverbs 22:6: "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
Psalm 127:3: "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him."
Closing Prayer
May the love of Jehovah, Jesus, and the Holy Angels fill your hearts and guide your paths. May we all strive to live as children of God, embracing His love and sharing it with the world.
