Bishop  Hopkins has said about Camphor, "The mission cares for the whole person - body, mind and spirit - with a church, a medical clinic and a school. Thus, the 3Cs mission project includes Churches, Clinics and Classrooms." The Lead Missionary of the station is Kathy Dickriede of Mentor UMC.  Due to September being the rainy portion of the year, we will be asked to focus on working within the clinic and classrooms at Camphor Mission.  Camphor Mission is addressing the needs in rural Liberia for Christian spirituality, education, health, clean water, and agriculture. We can be in partnership with other United Methodist Churches  around the world.  Estimated cost per person would be approximately $3000 per person for the  travel, meals, and transportation. Contact Stanley Wertz about joining the team at cwertz1@neo.rr.com or by phone (419) 892-3539. Group orientation and training are in process so be in contact ASAP!
