Mission Team to Liberia
Timothy Cummings, Aliza Cummings, Mother Isabel Karnga, Peggy Seals’ Marsais Broadway and W. Coleman Foster
The ministry is set out to serve as a catalyst in transforming the mindset of the Liberian believer. The format consists of radio teaching on discipleship, prayer, and general mentoring, with a focus on the believer’s purpose, which is to manage God’s creation in relation to advancing his kingdom for the benefit of all. In addition, the ministry supports Kingdom work that will help strengthen the objectives of the ministry: (i.e. children’s feeding programs, women’s literacy, and young adult evangelistic programs).

About Us
Our History
God’s Love Center, Inc (GLC). is a product of many prayer sessions, beginning in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA, in the late 1980s with Olivia Karnga Ockner (now deceased) and Missionary Peggy Seals of Oklahoma, praying for Liberia. Olivia is the older sister of Mother Isabel Karnga, who is the Founder and Coordinator of GLC.
The Ministry was incorporated in Atlanta, Georgia and in 2010 introduced and incorporated in Liberia by a mission team consisting of Missionary Peggy Seals, Evangelist and Intercessor Diane Van Antwerp, Counselor W. Coleman Foster, and Mother Isabel Karnga. Coleman Foster is grandson of Mother Isabel.
The mission team held two prayer breakfasts to introduce the ministry to Liberian leaders of churches, schools, family associations and government. The team also held workshops for young pastors of “start-up” churches. The workshops highlighted the need to include discipleship as a part of the structured program of the Church.
Breakfast Meetings
Prayer Breakfast with Church and Civic Leaders and the Public in General.
The team was invited to a breakfast meeting by the President to talk about the work of GLC in Liberia. The team informed the President that the ministry’s mission was to plant seeds that would transform the mindset of Liberian believers through discipleship and prayer. The biblical bases of the ministry’s goal are Genesis 22:17-18 (through Abraham’s Seed would all the nations of the earth be blessed); and Matthew 28: 19-20 (go and make disciples of all the nations). Accordingly, the ministry’s action plan for reaching its goal is radio teaching on discipleship and prayer, and one-on-one discipleship. The team’s mission at the time was to inform church, civic, governmental leaders and believers in general about the ministry; secure reliable liaison on the ground to carry out the work and incorporate the ministry in Liberia. The team would also look into identifying land for the work.
The President thanked the team for their commitment to the rebuilding efforts of Liberia and blessed the work of the ministry. The team then presented the President with a gift of a hand-painted pomegranate silk mantle.
Breakfast was served. The team then thanked the President for her time with them. The intercessors prayed for her and her family; for the government and people of Liberia. They also covered her in prayer for a safe trip to Cote d’Ivoire and a positive and fruitful meeting with the Ivorian President. President Sirleaf again blessed the team, indicated her appreciation for updates on the ministry’s work in Liberia, and departed to the airport.

God’s Love Center Rice Awards Program
Not having a way to measure the effectiveness of the ministry’s radio teaching, GLC decided to establish and connect a rice awards program to the weekly teaching broadcast on discipleship and prayer. The awards program would reveal, not numbers necessarily, but who the listeners are and the extent of their interest in the teaching broadcasts. The fourth or last broadcast of the month will include five questions based on the teaching material of the month. A local telephone number will be included in the broadcast for use of those participating in the program. The first ten person who call in correct answers to two of the five questions will be awarded a 50 pound bag of rice. The awards program continues in 2024 with a focus on making the teaching material more in-depth and interesting toward developing a greater listener audience.
The ministry is also making plans to launch a Prayer Invasion of Liberia – county by county – in 2024. The Prayer Invasion is a Word from the Lord through one of the ministry’s intercessors. A preparatory Zoom meeting regarding the Invastion is scheduled for April 21st 2024. Details will be forthcoming.

The Story Started
About Our Founder.
The founder of God’s Love Center (GLC), Mother Isabel Karnga, is a national of Monrovia, Liberia. Isabel grew up with her parents in Monrovia who were of the Episcopal Faith. She completed high school in Liberia and college in the United States – an alumnus of Howard University in Washington, DC. Isabel married Othello Coleman, also a Liberian national and an Episcopalian. They have three children (daughters), Kathleen, Saundra and Kym.
Isabel always had a keen interest in, and sought, the deeper things of the Gospel and the Kingdom of God. She attended and became president of the women of St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Monrovia. Later on her journey, Isabel decided to satisfy her thirst to explore the mysteries and deeper meaning of life – its purpose and expectations in relation to the Gospel and God’s Kingdom. She resigned from an enviable position as the first female Division Chief of the African Development Bank. The bank, a regional development bank, serves as an executing agent for development projects funded by the UN. She then enrolled in a school of biblical studies, Victory Bible Institute in Tulsa, Oklahoma. After graduation, she and a prayer partner, Missionary Intercessor, Margaret (Peggy) Seals of Oklahoma, ran a publication for a couple of years, “God’s Love Letter” which they developed into a ministry, “God’s Love Center, Inc.”
Isabel was the first to establish a Well Baby Clinic In Liberia that was sponsored by LAMCO, a mining company. She also served as director of the first anti-corruption agency of the government of Liberia. Isabel’s career includes international and government positions, having worked in the offices of the Secretary General of the UN and in the offices of the president of Liberia.
In her nineties, Isabel continues to have a thirst for that which is of eternal substance. She has dedicated the rest of her journey to continually help to advance God’s Kingdom, focusing on the importance of fruitful Christian stewardship through discipleship and prayer.
