Duazon, Margibi County – To support the local community, J&J Memorial Hospital and Harvest Intercontinental Duazon Church, in collaboration with Harvest Houston, USA, have embarked on a two-day medical mission in Duazon, Lower Margibi County. The initiative is providing free medical services to over 500 residents, offering essential care and surgical treatments to those in need.

The event is a joint effort commemorating the 50th birthday of Dr. Yatta Sackie Wapoe, the Director of J&J Memorial Hospital. According to Bishop Musa Korfeh, the Deputy Presiding Bishop of Harvest Intercontinental Church, and Rev. Joseph Redd Sr., the visionary of Harvest Duazon Church, the initiative serves as a way to give back to the community and help bridge the healthcare gap in Liberia.”The goal is to help address critical health needs while strengthening community well-being,” said Rev. Redd. “We believe it is essential to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of the people, reflecting Christ’s love for humanity.”

The two-day medical mission, which includes various treatments and surgeries, is estimated to cost approximately US $15,000. It features several surgical procedures, including myomectomy (removal of fibroids) and herniorrhaphy (hernia repair). According to officials from J&J Memorial Hospital, of the 500 individuals receiving treatment, 20 are undergoing surgeries.

In addition to these surgeries, the program also offers free testing and treatments for common health issues such as hypertension, diabetes, malaria, and other conditions. Notably, girls aged 9 to 14 are receiving free Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinations, which aim to protect them from genital warts and, more importantly, cervical cancer.

This health initiative is taking place alongside a five-day revival crusade, further demonstrating the church’s commitment to holistic care that addresses both physical and spiritual needs. In an interview with this paper, Rev. Joseph Redd emphasized the importance of addressing the physical health needs of the community. “In a country where over 70% of the population lives below the poverty line, providing medical services is crucial,” he explained. “While preaching the gospel is central to our mission, meeting people’s immediate health needs helps build trust and opens hearts to Christ’s message.”

Bishop Musa Korfeh, during the event’s opening, expressed deep gratitude for the support of J&J Memorial Hospital and international partners. “We are thankful to our donors, particularly our partners in the U.S., for their generous contributions. This initiative is an important step in tackling the challenges faced by Liberia’s healthcare system,” said Bishop Korfeh.

Ms. Lela Wapoe, Administrative Assistant at J&J Memorial Hospital, praised the partnership with Harvest Duazon Church in providing vital services to underserved communities. “It is heartening to be part of a program that offers not just medical services but also hope to those who otherwise might not have access to care.
J&J Memorial Hospital Administrative Assistant, Lela Wapoe in an interview with local media, “Too often, people die from treatable illnesses simply because they can’t afford the treatment,” she shared. “At J&J Memorial, we believe access to healthcare is essential for building a healthier Liberia.”

Residents expressed their gratitude for the services. Rafina Johnson, one of the beneficiaries, spoke about her experience. “I feel very good about the treatment. I was diagnosed with malaria and received medication. I initially came for fibroid treatment and was told to return for surgery tomorrow. I am so thankful for this opportunity,” she said.

The initiative is fully funded by Harvest Intercontinental Church, Houston, USA, with support from local and international partners.
