BRIEF OVERVIEW OF
HCMI VIS A VIS THE SETTNG OF THE DESOLATED
NATION OF LIBERIA
Liberia is a small West
African nation with respect to surface area and population. She is the oldest
independent nation on the continent of Africa.
Hitherto, she was a great nation, renown and respected in the community of
nations especially in the role it played to bring independence to her sister
nations.
In the yesteryears,
she was a great leader and pacesetter, a generous donor and sympathizer with
the oppressed. Her role as a model in politics, Christianity, education,
health, social sciences economic development, agriculture and sports were
admired globally. Life was pleasant, flourishing, attractive
and rewarding, and she was able to cohabit merrily with visitors from all
backgrounds.
Somewhere in the late 1980s a civil conflict
arose and gradually degenerated into arms conflict that lasted for a period of
over fourteen years. During this period of strive and instability the nation of
Liberia which up till then, had been an enviable people, was completely
devastated and laid bare in desolation. The people became highly disoriented
and confused. morals were eroded and Godless practices became rampant.. Liberia a
mother nation on the African continent was metamorphosed into a crowing sick
baby. The giant donor country became a beggar. The pride of black Africa was transformed into the scorn. The civilized and
knowledgeable people were converted into a nation of highly illiterate and
ignorant people. Indeed the many years of misunderstandings are reminiscence of
shame, sorrow and affliction to persons who knew the former civilized nation of
Liberia
and can make a comparison with the present shameful degradation in its place.
Liberia is a very rich
nation, blessed with lots of natural and human resources much of which are
lying idle and unexploited. God had intended these resources to be a blessing
to the nation and people of Liberia
for generations. The wars have come and gone with the resource still in place.
God’s purpose for Liberia
has not changed. God has the power to do and undo. This is the commission that
God has given to HCMI. Let my people
repent and turn back unto me and then I will build for them a rich nation and
heritage out of the wasted land and wasted years (Psalm 107 all through).
HCMI intends to carry out her mission in Liberia, on a
platform of Christian and Scriptural Principles and practices, and on a non
denominational stand point. Her aims are simple and precise: rebuild the nation
of Liberia
through serenely interventions front less all round perspective. HCMI aspire for
the Nation of Liberia to be reoriented and reintegrated into the Comity of
Nations as the Old, subtle, Generous, Admired
and principled Mother of Africa, in all spheres and domains of operations and
life.
