Is God calling you to serve Him?

We need people who want to serve God with their medical skills. In the past year God has called several doctors and nurses to join the team here and they have come or are preparing to come. Others can serve in maintenance, construction and other modes.

One family was sent by their church and other supporters to help us finish the major construction project of the maternity complex.

We are open to self supported workers from the CMA or other evangelical groups joining with us in the work of the Koutiala Women’s and Children’s Hospital. Workers coming through the CMA follow a simplified appointment process. Workers coming from other groups work in cooperation with the CMA under a Memorandum of understanding (MOU) that is worked out between those involved.

We are currently considering the next step God has for us. We are praying for God to send us a dentist and an ophthalmologist. The need is huge! These would need to be self funded (it could well be someone who is retired), who would be willing to learn French and then give 3-4 years here setting up dental and eye clinics training Malians to man them.

Afterwards, they could return periodically for short visits to troubleshoot and do further training.

Value of one child

As we turn off her baby’s oxygen, Isa’s mother runs outside so that she can hide her tears. Isa’s dad sits stone-faced. Knowing his baby will die within an hour, he says that they are leaving regardless of what we say.  They have no more money for medical care.

Sadly this is life in Mali, having to let your child die due to lack of funds, even when the price of oxygen is just $2 per day, hospital care an additional $1. Can you even imagine having to put a monetary value on your child's life?!
