Holly* serves at Kijabe Hospital, Kenya. The national health insurance fund recently introduced a new system, which has had some initial problems, meaning people were unable to apply for funding for treatment, leaving many unable to access the care they need. Sadly, Holly* has seen at least one patient die as they avoided going to the hospital due to cost and their sickness progressed. Pray that the system will soon be changed to provide the necessary support for people needing care and that God will strengthen Holly and give her opportunities to share her hope in Jesus as the ultimate healer of bodies and souls. 

Pray with Holly* for a good return to the hospital, after home assignment, and a renewed ability to serve and teach here. Having transitioned from work with a UPG to Kenya, I still have a desire to at least visit back to the UPG location and would value prayer for guidance and opportunities in 2023.

Holly* is on a ministry assignment in Kijabe Hospital, Kenya. “I am grateful in 2022 for settling to life in the hospital and for some good relationships with the surgeons-in-training I work with. I celebrated 10 years on the field with some co-workers and I am thankful for the knowledge the Lord has kept and blessed me whilst learning to live and serve here in Africa.“
