“Let us do good.....”
The Central Africa Medical Mission serves as a supportive arm to the Gospel mission of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) by providing humanitarian aid to the people of Malawi and Zambia.
Welcome to the Central Africa Medical Mission, a 50-year legacy of healthcare in Zambia and Malawi. The volunteers and national staff see many faces and have been a light of Jesus to many people. Their work is one of humility, patience, commitment, and sacrifice for people that they may never see again. It is leaving a place of comfort and entering one that brings constant reminders of pain, disease, sorrow, and loneliness. Yet, it also brings the blessings of new friendships, lessons in perseverance and character, and a strengthened faith in the One who sustains, cares for, and loves all people.
The Medical Mission is a program in which WELS or ELS health care professionals can use their God-given abilities to spread His love in a different area of the world. This ministry is a tremendous benefit to the Lutheran Church of Central Africa and our fellow sisters and brothers in Jesus.
Your Christian sisters,
The Central Africa Medical Mission Committee

Putting all your eggs in one basket
Shuffling through the pile of mail today, a smile comes across my face. Ever receive an envelope from someone and you know it has good news in it just by looking at the address? Usually I only find marketing brochures or bills, but today a familiar envelope arrives.

Greetings,
I hope this letter finds each of you doing well. We are nearing the end of “Rainy Season”. The maize is very tall. The pumpkins that are planted throughout the maize fields are ripe; tobacco is being harvested. The roadsides on the way to our clinic at Suzi are lined with both pink and orange flowers. The poinsettias in our yard are turning bright red. We’ve been enjoying eating avocado, sweet potatoes, guava, pineapple, pumpkins and roasted maize. The evening temperatures are turning cooler. It’s a beautiful time of year in Malawi.
