Really the Last Blog from Ghana

I almost forgot...HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!!!!

Last Blog from Ghana

Hello again!

The team is leaving in just a little while. Yesterday was a great day of discussion and debriefing. We also had a farewell ceremony thrown for us by the Manna Mission staff. It was very nice of them. The staff at Manna have been such servants and have been a pleasure to do ministry along-side. We will miss them dearly.

During the trip the SMI team has made some estimates of the medical work that was preformed:

- Doctors, nurses and med. students saw around 1,000 patients
- There were around 12 surgeries preformed
- Around 10 babies were delivered
- 500 glasses were given out at the traveling eye-clinic
- Dozens of people have given their lives to Christ

And 48 people will forever be changed in how they view the relationship between healing, medicine and Christ.

Once again, as I have personally experienced myself before, I feel that I have been blessed by the Ghanains I have worked with far more than I could have blessed them by being there.

It was a great trip!

Last Day in Ghana

After three strong days of traveling clinics this week, the team will be wrapping up our stay at Manna Mission today. We will be debriefing and preparing to return home throughout the day. There will be many good-byes.

Thank you for supporting our team and taking time to read this blog.

Take time to ask a team member about their time in Ghana when they return.

God Bless.
