Pictures- Joe, Esther, Newborns


This is part of a newly built wing of the hospital.
It is not finished yet, so it is not in use yet

Dr. Starke shows Katy around the new building

Brad and Dr. Starke were classmates in medical school. It's that connection
that helped us hear about, and travel to, Galmi

This is the foundation of a new radiology
building. It is being filled with dirt

The construction crew works long hours of manual
labor. The hospital is so grateful for their dedication

Here you can see that the foundation is almost completed

Chad, an ex-marine, is an SIM missionary and  construction
boss. 

He grew up in Nigeria as a missionary kid and has
served in Africa and Galmi for many years

Esther, the gynecologist, checks in with a patient
in the hospital



Esther personally checks in on her entire ward every day with an
entourage of nurses and that cart. This area is the overflow ward.
There is not enough rom for these patients in the hospital.

The OB Ultrasound machine is badly in need of replacement
due to its age

Healthy newborn!
