Friends Of Kijabe

PAACS Part 1 Good morning and welcome to the first PAACS episode. PAACS stands for the Pan-African Academy of Christian Surgeons and on the next two episodes I’ll be sharing conversations with graduates and faculty in the PAACS training programs at mission hospitals in Kijabe and around Africa. Nothing done at Kijabe Hospital is in isolation. Surgeons have been training under the PAACS program at Kijabe for more than a decade, and I think the PAACS program develops some of the best Christian leaders on the planet – not just surgeons, but Christian leaders. Friends of Kijabe is a support organization – we support the work of Kijabe Hospital in general and we support the work of PAACS at Kijabe through infrastructure projects like the Operating Theatre Expansion or through needy patient funding. I’m excited to share these conversations because they paint a vision of what is possible.
