JUSTIN ALBERTOS COLE

We are pleased to introduce to you another ABC Alumni, Justin Cole, who operates Radio Bomi covering 3 counties of Liberia. We thank God for his influence for Christ through the powerful vehicle of radio. It only affirms the importance of the Bible/Communications major offered at ABC University.

Dr. Del Chinchen
President, ABCU Liberia

Speaking of his time at ABC, Mr. Cole fondly recalls, "My days at ABCU from 1985 — 1989 were great. Football was my main sport. I played the six position for all the games in those years.

Communication was my minor, which is today my primary job. I am serving as Station Manager in my home town of Tubmanburg, Bomi County. I use the Radio to reach many people from three counties: Bomi, Cape Mount and Gbapolu. My listening audience includes about 150,000 people."

The Communications Minor Has Served Mr. Cole VERY Well

"As a Manager, I [personally broadcast] ... on the radio only on Sunday nights. I challange my audience through a program called Search the Scripture. Questions are asked from the Bible to the audience." The first person to find the answer is instructed to call "077777989 ... for a prize donated by community members."

FUN & GAMES are not the extent of Mr. Cole's Ministry. He is interacting with the youth of his community both on and off the air. Furthermore, until moving to Tubmanburg, he was preaching and heding the Sunday School department at his home church in Monrovia, Bridgeway Baptist Church.

Mr. Cole with the 'Plan Liberia Kids'
These children have a program on 'Radio Bomi' every Saturday at 10 a.m. sponsored by Plan Liberia and Nokia.

Mr. Cole is more than just a radio broadcaster, station manager, former church leader or active community member. He is a proud father and dependable son.

Below is Mr. Cole, pictured with his family, whom he holds dear. The three older children (Jusnita, Joshua and Jeremiah) are his and the younger ones belong to his cousin (also in the picture). Justin Cole's second daughter, Shilley, is not pictured.

Concerning his three children, Mr Cole states "I want them all to attend the ABCU by the help of God."

Biblical Chemistry?
Mr. Cole urges ABCU students to remember the primary formula of Biblical Chemistry.
