Upon This Rock Medical Center, Ozu Abam, Nigeria

April 2013, from Project SAVE Director Janice Walker: We have spoken many times about the clinic/hospital in Nigeria that Project SAVE helped to fill and we were so delighted that Janet Peck was able to go and be our representative the opening week.  

The attachment is a letter written from James Umekwe who built the clinic, sharing his side of the story and many photos as well.  I thought you all might enjoy seeing the "fruit of all your labors!"  

Thanks to each of you for your part in providing health care to Ozu Abam community in Nigeria. Another team from Mission to Heal will be returning the end of May to continue their efforts in helping the needy.
 

James Umekwe's touching story of the history behind his "Upon This Rock Medical Center" in Oza Abam, Nigeria
