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.

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.
