Mobile Medical Disaster Relief Team Needs Items Donated

An MMDR Team leaves on Saturday, June 25th for Ghana.  They will hold medical clinics on remote islands in the Lake Volta region where an estimated 7000 slave children reside.  On their last mission in April, they were able to aid in the release of 6 children. In addition to the medical clinics, they will hold workshops on how to make fuel efficient, low smoke cook stoves and initiate a clean water project on one island. Please pray for this team of 19 as they travel and work.  

We are collecting gifts to take back to the Village of Life Children's home in Kete Krachi, Ghana.  There are 28 children (20 from 13-18 yrs old, and eight (8) 5-7 yr olds).  If you would like to donate any of these items, please bring them to Mobile Medical Disaster Relief (833-3002) by June 23rd.
