Thursday through Saturday, March 15 – 17
- The Salt Covenant Conference started around 10 AM with sensational singing and dancing by our Liberian Christian friends. Brother Ron Miller, leader of the global Salt Covenant Network, served as the main speaker for each session of the conference. He explained that the “salt covenant” is much more than the loyalty pack that Easterners make by mixing and exchanging salt. Brother Ron showed in the Scriptures that “salt” is a symbol of personal holiness that preserves integrity in the true believer while creating thirst in the unbeliever for God and the things of God. “You are the salt of the earth,” Jesus told His disciples. Parallel to Christians being “the salt of the earth”, Jesus called Himself “the bread of life” (John 6:35,48). The “bread” speaks of God's grace by which we are given eternal life in Christ. Thus the climax point of the Salt Covenant is that Christians should balance the grace of God (the bread) with personal holiness (the salt) in our covenant relationship with the Lord and with one another.
- We issued over 100 certificates to attendees of the Salt Covenant Conference. Each recipient also got a copy of Bro. Ron Miller's book, “Walking in the Covenant of Salt”.
- Charlotte Nichols, assisted by Heather Hodges, along with their Liberian helpers (Florence Nagbe, Patience Corlon, Patricia Armah, and Moses Kollie) conducted a dental clinic from about 10 AM to 1 PM. After lunch they reopened the clinic from 3:30 PM to 5 PM. Over these three days they listed 65 persons. Of those persons, 52 were cleaning and extractions (pulling teeth … literally), and 13 were cleaning only.
- Revival service began around 6 or 7 PM each evening, and lasted till 9 or 9:30 PM, sometimes 10 PM. Every night there was exuberant singing, dancing, praying. The altar was constantly crowded every night after Bro. Ron's powerful preaching and altar calls. Preachers and congregants alike cried and cried out, pleading with the Lord to bring true revival to post-war Liberia. ~End Blog 8~
