In 2023, missionary, Joe Risinger, contacted ORH about coming to his mission field of northwestern Uganda. Brother Risinger and his family are with Baptist World Mission in Decatur, AL. His board was gracious to recommend ORH for the purpose of reaching his field for Christ.

Brother Risinger wrote the following report about the ORH clinic.

"We praise God for the tremendous opportunity to host ORH in the West Nile region of Uganda for the very first time! It was such a blessing to see the team in practice, and see the love each team member showed to our local people. We prayed for fruit from this work, and got to see a total of 13 make the decision to put their faith in Christ! Most of these were Muslim; what a breakthrough! God has been good to us to provide ORH as a valuable partner in this work of advancing the gospel.

Sincerely,

Joe Risinger

Such kind words are always refreshing. It has always been the purpose of ORH to fulfill our motto of "Touching the Heart...Reaching the Soul."

If we help the body only, we fail the Gospel which heals the soul. We must touch the heart by the mercies of God and reach the soul with the Gospel of Christ.

Thank you, Baptist World Mission, Brother Risinger, and those who comprised the medical team. Thank all who give for the furtherance of the Gospel.
