Today we are watching the dream of a Medical Clinic on the grounds of the Village of Hope become a reality!

Today, in this year of 2011, we are watching the walls go up quickly as we also begin the process of registering Hope Community Medical Clinic that will serve our children and our community. God be praised for making this a possibility!

How did we get here?

God raised up a young girl from a small town in Ontario, Canada. When she heard about the Village of Hope, she had deep compassion for the children and the medical care they would need as they grew.

Carrie Anne started a project she called ‘Bracelets of Hope’, and in 2 ½ years, raised the funds necessary to establish a building to house the Medical Clinic by creating and selling beautiful glass beaded bracelets! She has been an inspiration not only in her Canadian community, but to adults and children alike at the Village of Hope and around Zimbabwe, and an example to us all of what God can do with the life of a child! She has also fulfilled a dream that children would begin ministering to children.

In March, 2009 we had the honour of hosting Carrie Anne, her family and a missions team from their home church who came to visit the project.

We honoured her with a ground turning ceremony (pictured below) and she spoke in school assemblies and services while she was here, inspiring other children and adults alike to ‘dream big’.

We will need ongoing support and funds to get the clinic registered & running and provide supplies & salaries to staff it. Can you help?
