That’s why medical missions is opening gospel doors in West Africa. Hôpital Baptiste Biblique (HBB), or Karolyn Kempton Memorial Christian Hospital, is a 40-bed, full-service hospital serving as a platform for ABWE missionaries since 1985.
In addition to the Togolese themselves, unreached people groups including the Kotokoli, Fulani, Zarmas, and Hausas are all within ministry distance of the hospital. Since the ministry’s founding, more than 50 churches have been planted as a result of discipleship relationships formed through healthcare, and more than 80 percent of the congregations are now in the hands of national pastors and leaders.
