Theovision International has concluded its 2024 medical outreach with a donation of medicines worth several thousand cedis to the Jomoro District Health Directorate.

These items are intended to establish a CHPS (Community-based Health Planning and Services) compound for the Nzolenzu community.

At a brief ceremony in Half Assini, Rev. Eric Wussah, leader of the Theovision Medical Outreach Team, explained that the commissioning of the CHPS compound has been delayed for a few months.

This he said is to allow the Nzolenzu community to complete the necessary infrastructure. He expressed optimism that the facility would be ready for commissioning by October this year.

Mr. Gabriel Yengliere, the Municipal Health Coordinator for the Jomoro District, received the donation on behalf of the Nzolenzu community.

He expressed gratitude to Theovision, noting that the lack of funds had long delayed efforts to provide a CHPS compound for the community.

“We are grateful to Theovision for this intervention. We hope this marks the beginning of many more life-saving initiatives,” Mr. Yengliere said.

The week-long outreach took place in Nzolenzu, Nuba, and Jaway, all located in the Jomoro District of the Western Region.

A team of doctors, laboratory technicians, counsellors, and support staff treated 2,431 cases in total.

Among these, over 300 emergency cases were reported, and 479 people were enrolled in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS).

In addition, 1,108 children were treated, and 218 sanitary pads were distributed. To the glory of God, 460 individuals gave their lives to Christ during the outreach.

The annual medical outreach is part of Theovision International’s corporate social responsibility and mission to demonstrate God’s love through service.

In addition to its core mission of spreading the Gospel using audio Bibles in indigenous languages, Theovision provides quality healthcare to people in remote areas who otherwise lack access to medical services.

During this year's outreach, community members in Nzolenzu, Nuba, and Jaway received treatment for various ailments, including malaria, typhoid, fever, high blood pressure, diabetes, and wounds, as well as counselling and prayer.

Theovision International continues to make a significant impact across Africa, having recorded the audio Bible in 473 languages in 36 countries, reaching millions of people with the Gospel.
