On behalf of the Deacons, Deaconesses, Ministers, Pastors, workers, and all members of Life of Christ Ministries, Nimba County, we take this special moment to celebrate and honor you, our Father, Mission Director, Mentor, and Coach, Rev. Elijah Marley Sumo, as your pre-birthday approaches on July 9, 2026.
Daddy, we love you deeply with the love of God. Your life continues to be a living testimony of sacrifice, obedience, and unwavering faith. Leading God’s people is never easy, and even more so when it requires laying aside personal dreams to answer a higher calling. Your decision to move to a different place to gather God’s sheep reflects the very heart of Christ—a heart full of compassion, courage, and purpose.
Indeed, crossing over to the other side was not a mistake. Lives have been molded, destinies have been shifted, and many have been transformed through you by the grace of God. Your commitment to training God’s people, guiding them toward their divine purpose, and restoring broken destinies is a work that heaven itself honors.
As it is written in Scripture, “And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.” (Jeremiah 3:15). You are truly one of those shepherds, chosen and equipped by God for such a time as this.
Your labor, your sacrifices, your prayers, and your dedication do not go unnoticed. Through your leadership, many have found direction, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose in Christ. You have stood as a pillar of strength, a voice of wisdom, and a vessel through which God continues to bless His people.
On behalf of SOR Nimba and the entire Life of Christ Ministries family, we honor and celebrate you as your birthday draws near. May the Lord continue to strengthen you, enlarge your territory, renew your vision, and reward you abundantly for your faithful service in His vineyard.
Happy Pre-Birthday, Daddy Rev. Elijah Marley Sumo. May your new year be filled with greater grace, and divine health.
