To foster the Gospel through sanitation venture, the Shincheonji Church of Jesus Liberia’s (SCJ) volunteers, recently sanitized Du-Port Road Market.
Du-Port Market, situated at the intersection of roads that lead to Rehab Community, Red-light, Du-Port Road Intersection and Waterside, is a hub of transactions. The market is also opposite Shincheonji Church of Jesus Liberia branch headquarters.
Shincheonji is a Korean word that means “New Heaven and New Earth”, and SCJ is a Korean Church in South Korea.
The “Clean Du-Port Road Market Campaign” launch was to reawaken the church’s previous sanitation program, which operated few years but closed for administrative reason. The previous sanitation campaign, which was on every last Saturday of each month, started in 2021 and lasted to 2024. It had an impact on the entire Du-Port Road community and beyond.
“The previous clean-up campaign was done every last Saturday in a month. It went on for years and stopped,” Evangelist Fedesco Freeman, National Director of Shincheonji Church of Liberia, said. “It was not limited to Du-Port Road Market, but touched every part of the community. Through that we won souls and recruited students.”
SCJ Liberia runs a free Bible School, “Zion Christian Mission Center”, which operates in Montserrado County and Nimba County, and has graduated several students. The Bible school is flooded with students at every center, who thirst for the Word of God, especially for the actuality of the Book of Revelation.
SCJ, founded 1960 in Korea by the Promised Pastor, has made South Korea one of the world’s greatest countries, and is making headway with the “revealed Word” worldwide, according to Evangelist Freeman. “Through this organization, we can collectively work together and make Liberia great as South Korea is,” he added.
There was a huge turnout of volunteer members of SCJ Liberia during the launch of the clean-up campaign of the Du-Port Road Market on the first Saturday of February 2026. Volunteers wore yellow T-shirts and were seen with brooms sweeping, raking and putting the garbage in wheelbarrows, and dumping it in large black polythene bags for disposal.
The marketers and SCJ’s sanitation team collectively worked and gave the market a facelift, as marketers praised the organization for the initiative and said it was their first time seeing a church or a Godly organization carrying out clean-up campaign in the market since it was constructed by former President George M. Weah.
SCJ Liberia and the Bible School are fully sponsored by South Korea, which is the headquarters of SCJ worldwide.
In a related development, the current first Saturday clean-up campaign launched for SCJ has gained momentum because it is a sanitation initiative proposal proffered by former Monrovia City Mayor Mary Broh during the administration of former President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf to give Monrovia and its environs a facelift. It is being implemented by Liberians and foreign nationals nationwide. However, SCJ uses the sanitation exercise for evangelism, publicity of the free Bible School enrollment, and so on.
Paynesville City, where SCJ is located, lacks a garbage disposal area, but according to Evangelist Freeman, SCJ often pays a community-based organization that disposes its garbage monthly.
Meanwhile, the regular clean-up campaign exercise will continue with evangelism, SCJ’s aim and goal for Liberia and the world at large, enrolment publicity of the Bible school and the execution of the adage, “cleanliness is next to godliness”.
