WE'RE RAISING THE ROOF!

Roofing has begun on the clinic building this week.  We are amazed at how fast work is being completed.  We will have our own space to work out of soon.  Now the task of raising the remainder of funds to complete the interior begins.

Celine Orji, our nurse midwife, has been very busy every Saturday seeing patients.  She averages 20-25 patients a week.  The community is very grateful for the help they are receiving.  Stewart has placed an order for drugs to resupply the clinic when we go in June.  Blessings International, the organization we get most of our discounted drugs from, is running a special in honor of World Malaria Day and we are able to get enough free malarial medication to treat 50 patients!!!  Since 70% of deaths from malaria occur in children under 5 treating it is a big part of our mission in Nguru Umuaro. 

Please keep Kennedy and Celine in your prayers as they minister to the people in Egbelu.  It is dangerous for them to travel back and forth and carry all the equipment and medications needed for Saturday clinics.  We are very grateful to them for their hard work on our behalf.

If you have a group you would like us to speak to please let us know.  We are still in need of almost $30,000 to complete the clinic building and open full time.  We are confident that our supporters will come through and make this dream a reality.
