Nancy Fayia Medical Clinic began as a Pacific Southwest Schools ‘Hearts for Jesus’ Project, later supplemented by Faith Community Lutheran Church for the 2nd fl...oor and then brought into full completion by Trinity Lutheran of Walnut Creek, CA for medical assistance to indigent patients. Today we dedicated the clinic in Jesus’ Name. It took thousands of people to complete this project but that is only half the story. The other story are the great people sacrificing on this side of the Atlantic. The ELCLS and their love, prayers and integrity, the awesome HCC and clinic staff, Felecia ST Nyanfor the OIC who has been treating our kids from her home since we moved into the community, our contractors who build with honor and reduced cost as a gift to the ministry, our esteemed covering Dr Kollie who has been consulting since the beginning, even the ministry of health who gave free trainings for our staff. God has put so many people in our pathway to get from here to the promised land of accessible quality healthcare to anyone in need. We thank you Jesus for every person in this journey! See more
