In the old
days, people were very much opposed to western religions such as
Christendom but now even those who are not baptised, admit that the
Christian faith is not a bad thing.
In fact, it is through
evangelization that this country has experienced development. It was
the missionaries who introduced formal education, modern farming
methods, medical facilities and laid the foundation for the current
improved communication systems.

The gospel
has helped to unite various indigenous people who in the past were
divided by community conflicts and tribal differences. Nowadays,
people from all walks of life worship together as one as the church
keeps growing to reach even more brethren.
Besides, Church-owned schools were
the foundations of modern days educated people and experts serving
the country.

Evangelization
has helped to wipe out some rather bad customs that were being
practised in the early days while at the same time assisted in
cultivating peaceful co-existence between different ethnic groups.
Churches are also at the helm when
it comes to development projects in the community.
