Bishop Anthony R. F. Borwah of Gbarnga inaugurated the Fr. Paul Voisard Memorial African Mission Fund on March 1, 2026, at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish in Pickerington, Ohio.

During the ceremony, Bishop Borwah inducted a leadership team to manage the fund. Emmanuel Massaquoi will serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors, while S. Cooper Davay takes the role of Executive Director. The deputy executive directors include Larmie Molubah for administration, Mgenleh Dorliae for operations and projects, and Julius S. Gondoun for education and manpower development.

Bishop Borwah thanked the Bishop of Columbus, Earl Fernandes, and Fr. Boniface Tye for hosting the event. He also recognized the Liberian community and other African diaspora members for their ongoing support of families and communities in Africa.
