arrow icon. A Full and Integrated Response to HIV/AIDS: Maua Methodist Hospital in Kenya
(Left) Doreen Kananu, 16, and her sister Ruth, 26.

In 1928, British Methodist missionaries founded Maua Methodist Hospital (MMH) in Maua, Kenya--about a five-hour drive northeast of Nairobi. As the only full-service hospital in the region, today this 275-bed facility serves a population of 700,000. My husband, Bill, and I are United Methodist missionaries assigned to the hospital. Bill provides technical support, and I work with quality management. For many reasons, we are thankful to be part of the ministry here. Mindful of Matthew 25:35-40, the hospital seeks to serve Jesus by caring for neighbors in need.

arrow icon. Finding the Road 
The road out of poverty is not always obvious or well-marked. As our cover story points out, sometimes the road out isn't even a road, it's a runway. The story of missionary pilots, Gaston Ntambo, Jacques Umembudi, and Rukang Chicomb of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, illustrates the church's will to empower individuals and communities to grow in their knowledge and skill as well as in their faith

Jerri Savuto dancing with AIDS orphans' grandmothers during a children's day celebration. A few weeks ago during lunchtime, my husband and I heard what sounded like a marching band. We literally jumped to our feet and ran to the compound fence, and there indeed was a band of twelve men and one woman playing trumpets, saxophones, tubas, and drums as they walked down the dusty dirt road. Behind them were two groups of traditionally dressed dancers moving to the beat of the music. In seven years of serving at Maua Methodist Hospital in Maua, Kenya, we had never seen or heard a band.
