Monrovia Christian Community Hails Rev. Leo T. Mayson for His Anti-Gay Views, Defending Traditional Values.

• Tension broke out the United Methodist Church in New Georgia after a Reverend reportedly stood against the “New Regionalization Law” within the Methodist church.

• The Christian Community applauded Rev. Mayson for his stand against homosexuality.

The Christian community of Monrovia recently gathered to celebrate Rev. Leo T. Mayson of the New Georgia United Methodist Church, recognizing his firm stance against same-sex marriage and homosexuality. Known for being outspoken on the issue, Rev. Mayson has taken a hardline position within the church, aligning with traditional Christian values.

This event came in response to a decision made by the New Georgia United Methodist Church to halt the discussion of same-sex marriage, a move that has both supporters and critics talking. On one side, his supporters praise Rev. Mayson’s dedication to preserving what they see as biblical values. On the other, critics express concerns over discrimination and the exclusion of LGBTQ+ individuals from the church.

From a broader perspective, the conversation highlights the ongoing debate over LGBTQ+ rights in Liberia, especially as it intersects with religious teachings. Some argue that Rev. Mayson’s position is not just a matter of religious belief but is reinforced by Liberia’s laws, which prohibit same-sex marriage. “The Liberian Constitution supersedes all other laws in the country,” say those who believe the country’s legal framework backs Rev. Mayson’s stance.

At the gathering, Rev. Mayson was applauded by members of his congregation for standing firm in what they view as a necessary defense of traditional marriage. His leadership, they say, reflects a commitment to uphold both the laws of Liberia and the teachings of their faith.

Though the debate continues, it is clear that Rev. Mayson’s influence within his community remains strong. His supporters believe he is standing on the right side of both law and tradition, while others call for a more inclusive approach within the church.

The conversation about homosexuality, both in the church and in Liberia at large, is far from over. But for now, Rev. Leo T. Mayson remains a central figure in this ongoing cultural and legal battle.
