An International Christian Organization named and styled the “Fourthman Foundation” has ended a three-day training of young adults on making positive decisions in life in the Paynesville suburb of Monrovia.
The Fourthman Foundation is a non-profit and charity foundation aimed at impacting life through charity programs, businesses, education, and building their spiritual lives.
The event, which was held under the theme, “Make Better Life Decision” was intended to give young adults another chance to rewrite their story, own their future, and live their dreams.
The occasion brought together several youths and young adults to help build their spiritual and moral lives thereby helping them financially through businesses and scholarships for education.
Speaking at the closing ceremony Sunday, July 2, 2023, the Foundation National Coordinator, Minister Wonders Musa Darblo noted that the training helps young adults or participants in the area of business, financial aid, education, moral values, and spiritual growth.
According to Minister Darblo, the program started last year in Liberia with several young people benefitting from scholarships, business grants, and other opportunities with additional three persons benefiting this through scholarship and entrepreneurship.
Darblo however urged young people and Liberians in general not to give up on their dreams, vision, or aspirations but wants them to take positive decisions and rewrite their stories.
The Liberian youthful minister believed that many young people are where they are due to wrong decisions they continue to make, something he observed is responsible for damaging their future.
“The decision you make will determine good or bad future, be disciplined in your vision, know what you spend your time on,” he said.
In remarks, the participants and beneficiaries of both business grants and scholarships thanked the organizers for such a life-changing and impactful initiative in Liberia.
They expressed commitment to doing their best in education and business that will help change their status in Life.
They however called on young people to always involve God in their decision-making and serve God as their Lord and personal savior.
Several of the speakers who spoke through live conversations from the USA challenged participants to make the right choices in their relationships, careers, and every life decision by acknowledging God, which they said will direct their paths.
According to them, making a decision must require investigation about areas of their interest and including God in making the right choices in Life.
They maintained that knowing what they want to do in life is very important to their survivability and the generation to come.
”This event is an annual event that is hosted in late June and early July for young adults in Liberia,” Minister Darblo explained.
