Visiting Mercy's new clinic in Manjama

Our team left in three SUV’s for the 20 minute drive out past the paved road at the edge of Bo. The town of Manjama is at a junction where upwards of 17 villages used to come for the medical clinic located there. The property was built over 70 years ago and has since been abandoned. HCW, the local Health Ministry and Mercy Hospital have begun efforts to form a partnership to revive the medical outreach and support to the community there. We met with the leaders, the families and the children of the area and discussed what it would look like for HCW to offer family support. The children sang for us and were excited to show us their school and village.
