LIBERIA WORK 

In August 1951, Rev. Timothy Oshokoya was asked to visit  correspondents in Liberia including Apostolic Faith Church in Monrovia  founded by one Mr Williams, a black man. By the time he got there, Mr  Williams had passed away and the group had ceased to function. But he  was introduced to President Tubman of Liberia who offered him a  motorcycle to take him around. Manley and other Apostolic Faith Church  Assemblies of Africa in Liberia affiliated with the Apostolic Faith of  Portland, Oregon. 

On his second visit to the Portland annual Camp meeting in 1955,

REV. TIMOTHY IN LIBERIA

he was instructed to visit Liberia on his return to Nigeria. He wrote: “In  Liberia, I met Brother Peter Zacheaus Manley. Brother Manley has  established an Apostolic Faith Church in Manley Village, near Roberts  Field Airport, Liberia. I held two revival and evangelistic services with  them before I continued my flight to Nigeria. But we kept up contact after  that.” 

Towards the end of 1958, five ministers came to Lagos from  Liberia with Brother Manley. They spent some time with Lagos brethren,  honing their writing and reading skills. They attended Christmas activities  and revival programmes. They went back to Liberia laden with rich  spiritual blessings.
