MONROVIA-Churches have started helping institutions instead of just waiting for offering from their members.
The Senior Pastor of GSA Road Church of Christ, Alfred Beyan is one person who has decided to give arms to institutions by donating.
Recently, the Church donated several begs of rice including assorted Covid-19 preventive materials to the Management of the Liberia Broadcasting System and members of his church.

He further disclosed that the GSA Road Church OF Christ has been identifying with other institutions in the fight against the COVID-19 Pandemic including with the recent been State Radio.
Pastor Beyah also used the event to call on other institutions to identify with the Liberia Broadcasting System as a means of motivating them to continual doing excellent job for the country.
He further told the media that members of his church also received such donation in line with the church continual support to the fight against the COVID-19.
According to him, there is a need for the Church to help people not only members the Church he is overseeing during these challenging times, but others who are not under his supervision.
