We Can't Do This Alone

We feel we have been called to serve for 6 months at the Hopital Baptiste Biblique in Togo, West Africa.

Christine will be working at the hospital.  Derek will be helping out wherever a hand is required.  The three boys will be a (hopefully) welcome distraction for both the locals and the missionaries and medical staff on the grounds.  We've gone through the application process with the mission agency ABWE.  We have been approved by our home church.  We have committed to a time frame from April to September 2016.

We have a great church that has offered to support us financially.  We have friends, family and a church that are all willing to pray for us - to get us there, and to cover us while we're in Togo.

We'd love to have more people praying for us.  Really, really love it!  If you'd like to join with us - we'd be glad to have you join with us.  We know we'll need the support and intercession.  We covet your prayers for our time there, that we will be successful in completing our mission.

If you want to do more than pray, there is the opportunity to support our mission financially.  We are hoping to be able to take some medical equipment over with us to make the work there more effective.  Specifically, we are looking to purchase a couple of BiPAP and CPAP machines and the required tubing and masks to make the whole system work.  We want to take these with us.
You can give a one-time gift or sign up for monthly donations.

This is a BiPAP machine.  Two of these would be so nice to have.

This is a full-face mask for use with both CPAP and BiPAP machines

Almost half of our expenses will be in airfare to get there and to come back.  We have been given a target number of $27,000.  That sounds like a lot - and it is, but with our personal contributions and with the assistance of the church and other individuals we've got confidence that we can reach or surpass the goal!


Here is a map from Google Earth to show the distance we need to cover to get to Togo from our home in London, Ontario.
