Sierra Leone 2024 Recap
Growing the Kingdom and Providing Life – Changing Medical Care in Sierra Leone.
More than 8 million people in Sierra Leone don’t have access to critical healthcare or medical education.
This has caused:
The 3rd highest infant mortality rate in the world
An average life expectancy of just 56 years old
High mortality rate connected to malaria
To make matters worse, people in Sierra Leone communities often live their whole lives without knowing Jesus or the gospel.
Our Mission In Sierra Leone:
Objective 1
Sierra Leone was a record trip with more than 1000 people hearing the gospel!
Objective 2
Provide Life-saving Medical Care
Our team visited four different villages and treated medical needs of nearly 1800 patients.
Objective 3
Our Team
In March of 2024, our team of 10 volunteers traveled from Chicago, Detroit, and Dulles to meet up together in Sierra Leone in the early days of March. Our list of volunteers included two registered nurses, two nurse practitioners, one physician, one physician assistant, and three non-medical professionals.
Thank you to Barb, Bill, Kim, Mitchell, Randy, Rosemary, Jen, Tammy, and Toshie for your service to the people of Sierra Leone!
Highlights From The Trip
Salvation, medical care, and other answers to prayer.
Highlight 1
The boy on the far left came to our free medical clinic unable to hear. Randy immediately took the issue to the Lord in prayer. Miraculously, the boy was healed and recovered full ability to hear! Our team is still praising God over this.
Highlight 2
When we began serving in Sierra Leone, Rosemary prayed to God to reveal those who needed healing the most. She had a clear image come to mind of a man with a deformed arm. Days later, she spotted that exact man and was able to pray over him!
Highlight 3
One of the greatest parts of serving on a Mission Partners For Christ medical team is the sense of unity that always seems to happen amongst all of our team members. The team spirit is still going strong and we’re all talking with one another every day!
Thank you to all who support this trip through prayer and financial support!
