Faith Alive Hospital Team:
Today, the team served in Bakin Kogi and Kafanchan, two clinics of Faith Alive Hospital a few hours from Jos. The clinics were started in 2004 and the communities have seen a dramatic decrease in the rate of HIV/AIDS infection since. The team also attended and participated in a conference on children's rights. Specifically the conference focused on gender equality, a departure from traditional thinking. The team will stay in Bakin Kogi for the night before traveling back to Jos to serve at Faith Alive Hospital again tomorrow.
Anawim Home Team:
Anawim Home Team:
Today, the women returned to serve the commercial sex workers in their place of business. They prayed with them and listened to their stories. Upon returning to Anawim Home, Gin Gin, Tyler, Jess, Adrienne, and Kathi taught at the school, while Joey continued computer classes for the boys at Anawim. In the afternoon, the team traveled into Abuja for lunch and to visit the market. On the way back, they were caught in a 3 hour traffic jam - just another day in Abuja! The team will be serving at the school again tomorrow in preparation for graduation this weekend.
