Malawi Medical Missions

Ryan and Sharlene Hayton are arriving at Malamulo September 29 and will be the new surgeon here at the hospital. They have set up a 501(c)3 and website with information on their work here. Follow along at http://www.malawimedicalmissions.org/

We have something close to "fruit basket upset" here at Malamulo with people coming and going.We are thankful though for the blessing of people willing to serve and make a difference! Keep checking back for more updates!

This week I am headed to Bloemfontein, South Africa for meetings with the General Conference and the World Health Organization. Part of their global health initiatives is related to maternal mortality rates (MMR). Malawi has one of the highest MMR in the world so there is potential for the WHO to partner with a teaching organization in Malawi. Please pray for the meetings and for guidance as to how and where this potential partnership could go. This is a huge opportunity for the SDA church as the WHO has never partnered with a faith based organization.
