Historia de la oficina:

Brother Eric-Samu and his church started to receive the books and tapes from VGR since the end of 1989. In that time, there were only two Message churches in Abidjan. In 1990, Brother Eric started organizing a small library in his assembly and designated a brother to take care of it. In 1992, Brother Eric started sharing books and tapes with two or three new assemblies. It was early into 1993 that Brother Joseph Branham sent a VGR representative to visit Ivory Coast for a second time. Brother Eric agreed to represent VGR in Ivory Coast. It was the official starting of VGR in this country. At this time, there were only six churches to share materials with. By the grace of God, today there are approximately 180. We can do nothing but only thank the Lord for His blessings.
