FOL Members travel to Liberia


In  May, 27 FOL members traveled to Liberia for three weeks. For some, it was the first time since they were Peace Corps Volunteers or missionaries in the three decades before the civil war. Others have studied Liberia for their whole careers and spent several occasions living in Liberia, both before the war and since. Several of the FOL officers who planned the trip had been back directing projects since the war and were able to gauge the progress Liberia is making in rebuilding itself as a peaceful nation.
 
The group represented the largest number of FOL members traveling together since the 1997 election-monitoring delegation. Article continued
