Minutemen/Minutewomen Alert

Your faithful response as WGM Minutemen/Minutewomen is needed.

New cases of COVID-19 are occurring every day in Kenya as the virus spreads. Most COVID-19 patients require oxygen as a key part of their medical care. As of June 10, 2020, Tenwek Hospital didn't have any cases of COVID-19, but the staff is seeking to prepare for the possibility of future cases. Oxygen will be given to these patients from portable oxygen tanks. When a tank becomes empty, it’s refilled by a large tank filler.

Currently, the hospital has the capability to store enough oxygen to fill four tanks a day. This is far less than the amount it needs. It recently bought a larger oxygen generator to help increase the supply. This generator doubled the amount of oxygen available to patients, but it isn’t enough.

Today you can ensure patients get the oxygen they need by helping purchase a larger capacity tank filler.

This new compressor, in combination with the oxygen generator, will fill twenty-eight tanks each day. This is enough oxygen for patients in the hospital as well as those in nearby isolation and quarantine units!

Your gift will help raise the $78,000 needed to buy the large oxygen tank filler. By giving, you can help patients recover from COVID-19. But most importantly, you can make it possible for them to experience the love of Christ.

As WGM Minutemen/Minutewomen, you provide life-transforming help to ministries all over the world. Each emergency is a new opportunity for you to help connect the lost to the heart of God. Thank you for your gifts that make it possible to reach them.

This work could not be done without you.
