23 Apr Help for Mattru Hospital

Here’s an encouraging update regarding the Mattru Hospital in Sierra Leone. Billy Simbo writes:

The First Lady of Sierra Leone came through on the promised help from the Nigerian Embassy (High Commision). The Nigerians recently did an on-site visit and will be sending us 1 doctor and 2 midwives with a possible aaditional doctor in the near future. The hospital is responsible for providing accommodation and things like fridge, stove etc. for the house. They are supposed to come the first week in May. We are going to temporarily lodge them in the guest house used by the Medical Team whilst we work on getting Baker house ready. This will be a tremendous boost for the hospital.

This past week, Mrs. Sia Nyama Koroma, the First Lady of Sierra Leone, attended (with the vice president’s wife) the USA Doctors Summit in Los Angeles. They also met with Rick and Kay Warren at Saddleback Church.
