"A man’s mind plans his way but the Lord directs his steps" (Prov 16:9)
Our mission statement reflects our vision, i.e., to build teaching hospitals across sub-Saharan Africa. We are relying on God to direct our steps. CEF feels that the Lord has indeed directed our steps to N’Djamena, Chad. It is there that we are now building our first Chad hospital. Construction has started on Phase One which includes the first building within the hospital complex . You can see, in the yellow highlighted section of the drawing to the right, the area that Phase One covers in the overall plan for the Guinebor II Hospital in Chad.
This phase includes the security wall, a water well & tower, sewer system, electrical, and the clinic building. With the generous support of our donors, the security wall is in place and the pre-fabricated clinic building is paid for and should arrive from the States in the very near future. However, before the clinic doors can open there is much to be done: a foundation for the building, installing electrical and sewer, digging a permanent well, assembling the building and equipping it with furniture, fixtures and medical equipment.

This begins the first hospital project as we start out to accomplish of our mission of building teaching hospitals across sub-Saharan Africa in order to bring spiritual and medical healing to the people .
We have designed ordered, and paid for the clinic building which will be the first structure of the hospital complex. This building was fabricated in the United States. The various components have been loaded in a shipping container and are onboard a container ship heading to
