Dear Friends,

If you are a reader of this newsletter, you have most likely prayed for or supported IHDN directly or indirectly. You may also have gone on a Ghana mission trip, or know someone who did.

It is with great gratitude that I write in this edition of the newsletter. I would like to specifically thank you for your involvement with IHDN. As a result of your support, we were able to commission the outpatient building of the IHDN Mission Hospital in Ghana on June 14, 2008. When fully built, this hospital will provide comprehensive medical care to a catchment area of 120,000 people in southeastern Ghana .

We thank Almighty God for helping us accomplish the first phase of this project. We thank Him for providing the material and human resources throughout the planning and development of the Hospital. Our faith has been strengthened and our lives have been blessed by this experience. In this edition of the newsletter, you will find articles and updates from team members and information on upcoming trips in 2009.

As we come to the end of another year, we pause to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. We also look ahead to the future for more opportunities to serve Him. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year .

God bless you and your family

Sincerely,
Dr. Edem Agamah
President,IHDN
