Friends of Nexus raised over $14000 that provided Dr. Ibanda Moses at his rural clinic with a portable ultrasound machine. This tool will improve prenatal care for many mothers in remote areas and positively impact mother and infant mortality rates.
UPDATE: The UltraSound machine is working perfectly, and both Moses and Monica have now been trained in its use. Here is a list of ways it helped last Saturday. Moses sent this report: “I wanted to inform you that the UltraSound machine started working today without any complications. We were able to work on 6 expecting mothers and their progress was normal and those with Diabetes and Hypertension were 4. I wanted to let you know about that progress and we cant thank you enough. May God richly bless you.“
The latest mission trip included one week in Kenya in collaboration with Unmerited Favor Ministries and two weeks in Uganda for teaching, graduations, leadership summits, and more!
