First Aid Supplies Desperately Needed

Posted by

First aid supplies are desperately needed for two of our partner villages in West Africa. Please help by donating to the cause.

Seven years ago while on a mission trip to Burkina Faso in West Africa, I had the chance to stay in two villages: Dakoro and Karankasso Vigue.Β  While there I witnessed the lack of medical supplies and first aid.Β  In Dakoro I stayed with Pastor Alfonse and learned that the way he shares his faith in Jesus Christ is by giving out medical aid because he is the only medical presence in his small village.Β  His village is almost completely Muslim so this is a true God-sized task. His first aid supplies are a vital tool in sharing the gospel in his village.

The second village, Karankasso Vigue, has a small clinic but is very limited in medical supplies.Β  I was able to provide basic first aid treatment on many of the young children in this village.

Medical supplies in these villages are about more than physical health. They are also an avenue to open the door to share the good news of Jesus Christ. When you send medical supplies to Burkina Faso, you are spreading the gospel. Both of these villages are in need of additional medical supplies.

Help us to spread the gospel by joining us in raising $2,400, which will supply basic first aid needs to the two clinics in Dakoro and Karankasso Vigue. You can donate by clicking here or mail a check to CSMA, 3617 Wentworth Dr., Arlington, TX 76001.

It is a more efficient use of our money to gather money and buy in bulk than to accept physical supply donations. However, if the only way you can donate is to give physical supplies, please see the list below or download it from our website.

The ministry and impact of CSMA is growing around the world and we are honored that you are a part of it. Thank you for your support of the gospel in Africa.

Serving Him,

Paul Waller, L.A.T.
