Travel Challenges in Ghana

Travel is terrible in Ghana.  Because of you, there is a new facility at which I was able to participate in the Grand Opening and Dedication- but first, let me comment on the travel.

Executive Director, Bill Warren at the new Staff Housing of Kumdi Clinic, Ghana Christian Mission

What was bothersome and inconvenient for me, is daily life and could hinder the gospel for these amazing medical partners in Ghana  AND THE VERY REASON for this new facility.

On the trip around Ghana, we visited 5 of 7 clinics that have been established as outposts for the gospel by Ghana Christian Mission (which they call FAME GHANA)!  The one which had the new facility is in Kumdi!  This Clinic is dedicated to Quality Care and is open 24/7!

One day I went to bed encouraged because we were only traveling around 60 miles the next day.  Boy was I disappointed when IT TOOK US ALL DAY TO DRIVE SIXTY MILES!  The staff for these clinics travel these roads and are accustomed to HOW LONG it takes to travel distances we cover here in the USA in LESS THAN an hour!  Emergency Quality Care can’t wait for medical professionals to travel nearly a full day to come treat these patients!

  • In order to be open 24/7 and provide quality care, there must be quality staff.
  • In order to have quality staff, there needed to be quality housing.
  • In order to have quality housing; it needed to be built.
  • In order for quality housing to be built, extra funding needed to be raised.

                THAT’S WHERE YOU CAME IN!

This self-sustaining clinic, just needed a boost to keep the quality care staff employed, and housed!  You funded these housing units for critical clinic staff!

Here’s what is amazing about this Clinic, (which the government is considering an upgrade to its status from Clinic to Health Centre) this staff loves the Lord and shares the gospel!  Evangelism is the primary goal of this, as well as the 6 other clinics!

Your generosity is increasing the quality of the sharing of the gospel, by increasing the facilities that house the Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, and Medical Doctors who serve the people of Ghana.

This new facility will open the door for access to healthcare, and access to the gospel for thousands every year!  Churches are thriving, Christians are growing, and the gospel is spreading because of YOU!

Thank you for your partnership!! 

Bill Warren, Executive Director
