Dear Prayer Partners,
We are glad to share with you God’s faithfulness for His work in Ojali, Nigeria.
In the month of April, Raymond and his family, alongside some IOI team members, travelled to Otukpo, Benue State from Jos, for a two-day medical medical outreach in Ojali, a town near Otukpo. This mercy mission touched the lives of over 800 patients, who received free medical consultations, diagnoses, and life-saving medications that addressed various health needs. Furthermore, six sight-restoring eye surgeries were performed by professional medical doctors. In a tangible demonstration of God’s love, wheelchairs were distributed to those with physical challenges, offering them newfound mobility.
Beyond physical healing, the Gospel was powerfully preached as the revered king,Elaigwu Odogbo John, the Och’Idoma of the Idoma kingdom graced the occasion and also delivered a message of salvation to all in attendance. To God’s glory, the two-day event marked the official commissioning of the Ojali clinic, a fruit of IOI’s 2023 Gospel outreach. This clinic will serve as a place of hope, providing essential medical care and demonstration of the love of God to the Ojali community, and surrounding towns where access to medical care was once a distant hope.
There was a graduation of nine students who enrolled and completed the Emmaus Bible courses. As we give praise to God for the great things He has done in thecommunity of Ojali, we invite you to join us in prayer that:
- he seed of God’s Word sown in the hearts of all those who were in attendancewill take root, and they will grow in faith and obedience.
- God will graciously grant healing and restoration to all those who received medical treatment and surgeries
- The Gospel will continue to prevail in the Ojali community and its surrounding villages.
Thank you for your continuous prayers and support.
Serving till He comes.
