At OCMM, prayer is the heartbeat of our mission. It fuels our dedication, guides our steps, and strengthens our resolve as we deliver essential healthcare to those in need. We believe that through prayer, we are not only guided but also uplifted, allowing us to make a meaningful impact in the lives of the underprivileged. Thank you for your prayers and support—together, we are making a difference. #ocmm #FaithInAction #Healthcare

Information alone is not enough. What good is it to inform a community about an illness if we don't also empower them with the tools and knowledge to combat it? At OCMM, we believe in doing more than just raising awareness. We dedicate time to train local residents, ensuring they can continue the fight long after we've gone. But there's so much more to be done. Countless underserved communities are still waiting for our help. Let's do more together! #OCMM #Empowering Communities #HealthForAll

Ever feel like the weight of the world is pulling you down? Psalm 34:5 promises that when we look up to God, we will NEVER be put to shame. At OCMM, we believe that in His light, we will always be radiant. Let’s look up to God this new week and His beautiful face will shine upon our lives and all that concerns us. #hope #newweekencouragement #ocmm

At #ocmm , we are committed to conducting thorough Needs Assessments to ensure our interventions directly address the most pressing challenges in the communities we serve. Recently, we partnered with @UNICEF through the BERWASSA (Benue State Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Agency) WaSH program to carry out a Needs Assessment in Mbagwaza, Ushongo LGA of Benue State. The experience was eye-opening, revealing the severe conditions that persist in today’s world. It’s a stark reminder that, despite the progress made, there is still so much more to be done to improve the health and well-being of rural communities in developing countries like Nigeria. The photo below shows an OCMM field worker inspecting one of the village’s pit latrines—remarkably one of the most decent facilities available, as open defecation is still common among the community members.

In the 25 years of our being, #OCMM has seen the help of God in carrying out surgeries in the local communities where we have worked. There hasn’t been a single patient complication or death resulting from a surgical procedure, even where the environment is less than ideal. These surgeries range from minor surgeries like appendectomies to more complicated procedures like myomectomies. OCMM caters to the health needs of persons in underserved or rural communities, providing the much needed medical help where none would otherwise exist. Interested in the work we do?

In moments of challenges, this verse reminds us that we are supported by His limitless resources.Our work is a testament to God’s faithfulness in meeting every need. Today, may you also be rest assured in His ultimate provision for your daily needs and strength. #HealthcareForAll #FaithInAction #GivingHope #DivineProvision #ServingCommunities #OCMM
