Making disclosure of the project upon being inducted as Administrator of WAGOM on the weekend, Rev. Daniel B. McGee, described the project as a spiritual and investment in the future of Liberia and the wider region.
The WAGOM Administrator said the proposed project is grounded in the scriptural vision of citing Habakkuk 2:2: “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.”
“We thank God for our project manager who helped us conceptualize this vision. We are equally grateful to the architects and engineers who visualized what we believe the future of Christ’s Mercy Mission should look like,” Rev. McGee said.
“Church, we ask that you pray with us as we garner the resources to bring this concept to reality in the shortest possible time.”
According to Rev. McGee, the mission is not just about buildings, but about preparing Liberia for a shifting global order and empowering communities spiritually and socially. He urged believers to remain prayerful and steadfast, adding: “The world’s power centers are shifting. It is no longer just the United States dictating outcomes. Nations like China, India, and Brazil are influencing decisions on the ground. For us as a mission, it means we must look beyond borders and trust God to align us where His work is needed most.”
The proposed mission project is estimated at US$1,017,137, covering several key facilities designed to serve both spiritual and community needs.
The Engineer, who presented the architectural vision, described the project as a modern, purpose-driven facility: School – an eight-classroom block (20×20 ft each), with a computer lab (30×40 ft), a library (20×40 ft), and a cafeteria, built to meet modern academic standards. Estimated cost: US$425,165.55; a chapel with spacious worship center, complete with a counseling room for students and community members facing trauma. Cost: US$128,558 and a clinic – a community health facility valued at US$160,079, aimed at serving both students and residents.
The project would also include a guest house and conference facility – designed to host pastors, retreat participants, and visiting missionaries, with amenities surpassing existing models in the region at the cost of US$325,982 and parks and recreational spaces designed for rest, meditation, and fellowship.
“This is not just another mission school or church,” Engineer Grace explained. “Every element—from the counseling center in the chapel to the computer lab and clinic—has been designed to serve the community holistically. The investment is worth it, and with faith, we believe it will be realized,” the engineer added.
Rev. McGee among other things added that the project is both a faith step and a practical response to Liberia’s needs: “We should not look only at the cost but trust in the God who provides. This mission will raise up the foundations of many generations, becoming what Isaiah called “the repairer of the breach and the restorer of streets to dwell in.”
Meanwhile, others inducted into office for different leadership roles at WAGOM are; John Walker –Chairperson, Musa Brown, Co-Chair, Dennise Washburn-Secretary General, Martha McGill-Treasurer, Cllr. Jomah P. Karnley-Lawyer and Willie Sirleaf-Member.
