“Doctor” Ibrahim
In Zanzibar, Ibrahim arrived as a health worker rather than a pastor — a strategic choice that opened doors in a non‑Christian region. Through health programs, personal ministry, and the trusted reputation of the Adventist clinic, he helped grow the church from seven members to 160 before leaving the island. Today, more than 1,000 Adventists worship in Zanzibar, a legacy tied to the clinic’s ongoing mission.

Miracle Clinic

Nearly 40 years later, the clinic still serves the community, and this quarter’s Thirteenth Sabbath Offering will help replace its aging buildings with modern facilities.

Soccer, Spleen, and Salvation
In Kinshasa, 12‑year‑old Patrick needed emergency surgery after a soccer injury, but his family couldn’t afford hospital fees. At the Adventist Clinic of Kinshasa, doctors operated immediately without demanding payment, saving his life and leading his mother to give her heart to Jesus.
