A team of nine medical professionals provided:

• Health checkups and treatment for common illnesses

• Free medicines

• Eye care, including free lenses

• Education on how to prevent diseases

The team also shared the message of Christ, offering counselling and spiritual care to everyone who attended.

The Results

The outreach had a big impact:

• Total reached: 618 people

• New believers: 123 people, including 37 Muslims

• Holy Spirit baptism: 21 people

• Counseling sessions: 297 individuals

Despite challenges like heavy rain, the outreach ended well. People shared stories of healing and joy, thanking the team for their support.

Thank You

We want to thank everyone who helped—organizers, donors, and prayer partners. Your support made this possible. The local people were deeply touched, and lives were changed both physically and spiritually.

We encourage everyone to keep supporting missions like this. Together, we can bring help and hope to more neglected areas in need of both healthcare and the Gospel.

Thank you, and may God bless you!

REPORT: Successful 2024 Hohoe Medical Outreach

Learners showing their toothbrushes and pastes after an encounter with the outreach team

The 2024 Hohoe Medical Outreach, organized by the Christian Missions Resource Foundation (CMRF) in collaboration with Tesano Baptist Church (TBC), E3 Partners, Lakepointe Church-USA, Biblical, CEF, and the Hohoe Local Council of Churches, was a great success. The mission provided free medical care, including general consultations, eye services, dental care, and counseling, to over 1,900 people across five communities in Hohoe.

Preparation for the Outreach

The planning process began in May 2024, led by Dr. Francis Osei from E3 Partners. After an initial survey conducted by the CMRF team, a small committee was formed, including key leaders from the partnering organizations, to ensure that everything was in order for the mission. Essential medical supplies and equipment were delivered to Tesano Baptist Church on July 12, 2024. The following day, on July 13, a team of 17 volunteers embarked on their journey to Hohoe, arriving safely despite a slight delay caused by road conditions.

A Week of Service

Upon arrival, the team settled into the Leisure Cozy Hotel in Hohoe, and the outreach began with an opening ceremony. The following day, all volunteers gathered for a meeting to plan the week ahead. This meeting established a positive tone for a successful mission, as participants from CMRF, Tesano, Lakepointe, and CEF came together to strategize and prepare.

The medical outreach covered five communities: Liati Teikrom, Fodome Amele, Paloma Hohoe, Avegah Hohoe, and Galikofe Hohoe. Over the course of five days, the team provided medical care to a total of 1,965 individuals, which included 655 males and 1,310 females.

Key Services Provided

• Dental Clinic: A total of 132 dental treatments were provided, including extractions, scaling and polishing, fillings, and other dental procedures.

• Counseling: 1,576 people received counseling, with 253 accepting Christ.

• Eye Clinic: A total of 1,238 people were served, receiving eye glasses, eye drops, and surgeries.

• Children’s Ministry: Over 1,500 children received salvation, and essential health items like toothpaste, toothbrushes, and deworming tablets were distributed.

The Closing Ceremony and Reflection

On July 19, after the final day of work, the outreach team held an exit meeting to reflect on the successes and challenges of the mission. A closing ceremony followed, with prayers, songs of thanksgiving, and recognition for the outstanding efforts of volunteers.

Afterwards, the team returned to Accra, with the mission marked as a significant achievement for all involved.

Looking Ahead

The success of this outreach was possible because of the generous contributions and teamwork of all partners. However, there are a few recommendations for future missions, including improving the planning timeline, ensuring sufficient counselors, and enhancing rest and meal provisions for the volunteers.

We express our heartfelt gratitude to God, our partners, and all the volunteers who made this outreach possible. This mission served as a powerful reminder of the importance of coming together to serve others. Thank you for your support, and may God continue to bless our work in His name.

DEDICATION AND COMMISSIONING OF A NEW DENTAL UNIT

Last year, we reached out with a heartfelt appeal for support to raise eighteen thousand Ghana cedis (GHC 18,000.00) towards purchasing a mobile dental chair unit. Your response was overwhelming. By God’s grace and through your incredible generosity, twenty-one thousand five hundred Ghana cedis (GHC 21,500.00) was raised—exceeding our expectations!

Today, we are overjoyed to announce that the dental chair has been delivered and is already making a difference in the lives of many. It is currently in active use at Lingbinsi-Daboya, serving those who need it most and bringing relief to countless individuals. The new dental chair was dedicated by Rev. Dr. Wuni, Rev. Joseph Azure, and Rev. Asibu-Yartey, whose prayers and blessings have sanctified it for this important mission.

We extend our deepest gratitude to the 20 individuals, families, groups, and the church community who contributed selflessly to this mission. Your support has turned a vision into reality.

May the Lord richly bless you and remember your act of love and kindness every time this device is used to provide care. May He reward you abundantly and ensure that your labour of love is never forgotten. May the Lord bless this work in the name of Jesus, and may it continue to bring healing and hope to all who receive care. Amen.

This is more than just a dental chair—it is a symbol of compassion, a tool of mercy, and a reflection of the great things we can achieve together in His name. May God continue to bless the work of our hands and the hearts that make it all possible. In Jesus' name, Amen.

KBC 2024 MEDICAL OUTREACH WAS A SUCCESS

The Koinonia Baptist Church (KBC), in partnership with Shalom Baptist Church (SBC), Lakepointe Church in Texas, and the Christian Missions Resource Foundation (CMRF), organised a five-day medical outreach to selected communities in Tamale in the Northern region of Ghana from March 9 to 16, 2024. This initiative was a demonstration of the ministry of mercy. It provided free medical care to those in need. At the same time, it shared the love of Christ. This was done in practical and meaningful ways.

Preparations for the outreach began with a Sunday worship service at KBC, where Pastor Jacob Kwame Opata delivered an inspiring sermon based on Matthew 28:18–20. He encouraged everyone to reach out to others with the Gospel, no matter where they are. Following the service, volunteers participated in a training session, after which departments held breakout meetings to strategise and plan for the mission.

Daboya Lingbinsi

On the first day of the outreach, the team served the community of Daboya Lingbinsi. The advance team faced several challenges, including a flat tyre that delayed their journey. The rest of the team had to cross a river to reach the destination. Despite these difficulties, we all arrived safely.

A significant moment of the day was the dedication of a new dental chair by Rev. Dr. Wuni, Rev. Joseph Azure, and Rev. Asibu-Yartey. The team provided medical services to 263 beneficiaries, including 30 dental patients (with 18 extractions) and 58 individuals receiving eye care, with 29 glasses dispensed.

Zugu in Tarikpa

On the second day, the mission moved to Zugu in Tarikpa, where 496 beneficiaries were attended to. The dental team treated 35 patients, performing 23 extractions and addressing 12 other cases, while the eye clinic served 98 individuals, dispensing 53 glasses and managing 45 other cases. Volunteers worked tirelessly to meet the community's needs.

Yilikpani

On the third day, the team arrived in Yilikpani, where they served a total of 405 individuals, comprising 75 men, 167 women, and 163 children. The dental team conducted 7 extractions, while the eye clinic treated 41 patients, dispensing 19 pairs of glasses and addressing 22 additional cases. The community warmly welcomed the team. They created a supportive environment for effective ministry..

Gbanyamni

The outreach continued on the fourth day in Gbanyamni, where the team was met with gratitude and enthusiasm from the local chief and residents. A total of 392 beneficiaries were served, including 46 men, 205 women, and 141 children. The dental team treated 15 patients, while the eye clinic attended to 72 individuals, dispensing 37 glasses and managing 35 other cases.

Dungu
On the final day, the mission took place in Dungu, marking the culmination of the week-long outreach. A closing ceremony was held, during which Rev. Dr. Wuni expressed gratitude to everyone who contributed to the mission's success. Pastor Jacob Opata extended appreciation on behalf of the CMRF President. He highlighted the support from KBC and the generosity of Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Wuni in purchasing the dental unit. In Dungu, the team served 328 beneficiaries. This included 60 men, 154 women, and 114 children. The dental team treated 17 patients. Meanwhile, the eye clinic attended to 78 individuals. They dispensed 47 glasses and addressed 31 other cases.

Throughout the outreach, volunteers demonstrated exceptional teamwork and enthusiasm. Each community expressed profound gratitude for the services provided. The mission's impact extended beyond medical care. It brought hope, healing, and the love of Christ to underserved communities.

The 2024 KBC Medical Outreach was a significant success. It positively impacted 1,884 individuals across five communities. The initiative showcased the transformative power of the Ministry of Mercy. It left a lasting legacy of compassion and care. Special thanks are extended to all the volunteers, sponsors, and partners who made this mission possible. May the love of God continue to inspire and empower such acts of service in the future.

REV. LEWIS FIADJOE CELEBRATES 60TH BIRTHDAY WITH ACTS OF COMPASSION FOR THE VULNERABLE

Rev. Lewis Fiadjoe, the Director of Missions for the Christian Missions Resource Foundation (CMRF) and Regional Overseer of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) for Northern Ghana, celebrated his 60th birthday in an inspiring way. With the support of CMRF and other partner organisations, he organised impactful outreach activities to bring hope and relief to the less privileged, including inmates of the Tamale Central Prison and vulnerable groups in surrounding communities.

In Sang, Mion District, Rev. Fiadjoe visited the Nazareth Home for God's Children, where he treated children to a special feast. He also distributed clothing and other essential items to approximately 110 widows in the Savelugu Municipality.

At the Tamale Central Prison, he provided food supplies and facilitated a comprehensive medical screening for the inmates. The medical outreach at the prison helped 272 people, including 222 male inmates, 10 female inmates, and 40 officers. The services included general check-ups, checking vital signs, eye tests, free medicines, and counselling.

Speaking during the outreach at the prison, Rev. Fiadjoe shared his motivation for the acts of kindness, saying it was his way of reflecting God’s love and expressing gratitude for the grace that has shaped his life. He explained that his commitment to helping the poor and marginalized stems from biblical principles, particularly the teachings of Matthew 25:35, which emphasise care for the vulnerable.

Rev. Fiadjoe further remarked that God had placed it strongly on his heart to demonstrate love to those in need as part of his 60th birthday celebration. He expressed that his life has been enriched by God’s unmerited favour, and giving back was the most meaningful way to honour that blessing.

Superintendent David Kwame Afatsawu, the Northern Regional Public Relations Officer of the Ghana Prisons Service, praised Rev. Fiadjoe for his thoughtful intervention. He highlighted the significant challenges the prison faces, including a lack of learning materials, health services, and water due to a broken pumping system. He expressed hope that more philanthropic individuals and organisations would emulate such charitable efforts to address these pressing needs.

CELEBRATING 60 YEARS OF GOD'S FAITHFULNESS: The Journey of Rev. Lewis Fiadjoe

Rev Lewis Fiadjoe, CMRF Missions Director

A popular quote by Maya Angelou states, “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.” In this profound statement, Angelou reminds us that the essence of life goes beyond mere existence or survival. A truly fulfilling life is measured by the quality of experiences that move us deeply, inspire us, and leave us in awe. In this sense, our lives should be filled with moments that bring meaning, ignite passion, and create unforgettable memories.

As I celebrate my 60th birthday on Sunday, 25th February 2024, I wholeheartedly agree with Angelou's assertion. My life has been rich with moments of passion and filled with wonderful, unforgettable memories.

My call to full-time ministry began in 1998. I resigned from my job with the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) and ventured into the mission field in Builsa. This area is located in the Upper East Region of Ghana. My primary assignment was church planting. I pursued this through medical missions and by sharing the gospel using the Jesus Film in various communities.

In 2003, I transitioned from the field to serve as the Missions Director at the Christian Missions Resource Foundation (CMRF). At that time, over 20 churches had been established in the Builsa District alone.

My work with CMRF came with significant exposure. My responsibilities as Missions Director expanded significantly. These included scouting and mapping mission sites. I worked with churches and other parachurch organisations to spread the gospel. I also led mission teams across Ghana and extended the work to parts of Togo, Benin, Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, the Philippines, and Jamaica. During this time, I had the honour of serving under Group Captain Dr Sam Annankra, the founder and first President of CMRF.

In 2010, I became the Coordinator of the Faith Comes by Hearing project at the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC). Two years later, in August 2012, I was appointed the Missions Director for ICGC. In this role, I had the opportunity to instil a missions-oriented mindset among church leadership, which ultimately led to a significant drive for church planting.

Following this, in May 2018, I was appointed Regional Overseer for the ICGC Northern Region. This role involves overseeing 48 churches and numerous preaching posts across the five northern regions of Ghana.

As I consider my life, I see God’s guidance, faithfulness, preservation, and divine provision. In light of this, and inspired by the words of Jesus in Matthew 25:32–36, I have decided to commemorate this milestone by visiting orphanages and prisons. I have decided to share my birthday with the less privileged. Through these visits, I hope to share the love of Christ. I also aim to bring joy to the vulnerable in society and minister the Word of God.

Join us on the 24th of February 2024 for this celebration. It is my prayer that this celebration will glorify God. May it also reflect His compassion for humanity.
