ORIGINS
In 2016, the Rev. Rufus Kahn (Liberia) began making plans to reach across the border to Sierra Leone. By 2017, he had his contact, Mbawa, a church planter and pastor. Mbawa returned to Sierra Leone in 2018 after working for years in Liberia. Pastor Rufus began visiting Sierra Leone as Mbawa established a small network of pastors. Work formally opened in 2019. Now, leadership has been passed to Pastor Koroma, a graduate of the Wesley Missionary Institute.
