Africa, Help is on the Way!

This past Sunday we had special prayer at Hillcrest Church for Jean-Aimee Gifford, a young lady who leaves soon for Africa. Jean-Aimme has been an AIDS nurse here in Dallas, has been to Africa, and seen the great need. Now, she is moving to South Africa to work with AIDS patients and their families.

As is my Sunday afternoon tradition, I read the Dallas Morning News. The cover article was about the health care crisis in Africa: A War Short On Warriors. There are many generous and kind-hearted people who give finances to this effort, but the primary need is medical workers. How amazing!! At the very time that the need is great, we at Hillcrest are sending Jean-Aimee, who can help many people physically, but spiritually as well. We will have a speical time of blessing her this Sunday, May 27th.

If you would like to contact Jean-Aimee directly, her e-mail address is: jeanaimee@worldinview.org If you want to find out more about the type of ministry she will be doing in Africa, here is two web addresses: www.handsatwork.org and www.masoyi.org. To support her, contact www.worldinview.org.

We love Jean-Aimee, and are thankful (and proud!) to send her out in the name of Jesus.
