Peter Faile is the son of George and Elisabeth Faile (22+ years of service at BMC). He and his wife Erin will work as volunteer coordinators which involves managing the volunteer schedule as well as overseeing volunteer transportation, housing, meal preparation, and vehicle maintenance. They provide a much needed service to the 80+ number of volunteers per year and provide the Faile Foundation with an ongoing person to person liaison with the staff at BMC.

Please pray for them as they serve in these demanding roles.

After nearly 25 years at Baptist Medical Centre, Dr. Hewitt and his family have moved to Richmond, VA. Dr. Hewitt and Mrs. Hewitt will be working at the IMB for the next couple of years.

The whole family, Earl, Mona, Emily, Abby and Benton will all be missed around the hospital, in Nalerigu and in the mission family.

The patients and staff at the hospital will miss Dr. Hewitt’s care and dedication. The countless volunteers will miss his teaching and advice in clinic and on the wards. And people in town will miss his greetings and visits.

The volunteers will also miss having Mona to help look after their needs and the great meals she fixed for so many. She will also be missed at NRU where she did Bible stories and in town where she shopped and visited.

Emily, Abby and Benton will be missed by all who go to Nalerigu and by the friends they made during their time there.

We wish them all the very best as they begin a new phase in their lives and ministry.

A group of volunteers recently met in Cartersville, Georgia to load another container of medical supplies for Baptist Medical Centre. Here are some pictures of the activities that day.

Many thanks to all who have made it possible to get this ready. Vickie Barnes and Cindy Shumpert have really put in a lot of hours to make this happen. But it would not have been possible without the donations, support and prayers of many others.

So, THANKS TO ALL WHO HAD A PART!!

Thanks to the generous support of donors to the George Faile Foundation, BMC now has a new vehicle for the public health department to use in village outreach ministry. For several years now the department has been in need of a good means of getting out to surrounding villages for preventive health services and evangelistic outreach.

It is often necessary to carry supplies and equipment so the car was ordered with a carrier. The roof rack came with the car, but was not put together and there were no instructions. Fortunately, Tommy Harrison was there to figure out how to put everything together properly.

Thanks to all who made it possible for Baptist Medical Centre to obtain such a nice and valuable addition to the ministry.
