In most third world countries modern medicines are not readily available, so when a medical clinic was offered in Benin the people did not hesitate to come. Colin and Teena Ovenell (our future colleagues) were able to host a group from the states that put on an eight day medical clinic. In those eight days they saw over 1000 people come for treatment. The exciting part for us is that many of them were Fulani, the people group that we desire to reach. Throughout the medical work people received a clear presentation of the gospel, some more than once. Please pray for the Gospel message to take root in their hearts.
We are also excited about current discussion regarding plans to develop a permanent, local medical clinic. The land has been promised and there are national believers ready to staff the facility. This is a vital need and would open the doors to meet both physical and spiritual needs! Please pray with us that God will lead and bless as His path is followed.
