A visit by JAF Ministries, Wheels For the World, mission team included Echoing Hills Founder and President, Rev. D. Cordell Brown in the mid 1990 s. He was challenged by the faith exhibited by those lives he shared during that trip. With assistance from the office of the President of Ghana and through the efforts of several mission teams, an abandoned collection of buildings has been transformed into an environment that sets an example for a dignified, respectable, secure, and productive quality of living for individuals with disabilities. The facility consists of dormitory style living for 16 male and 16 female residents, a vocational training facility and a diagnostic center. Currently we have 13 male and four female residents living at the facility.
Work is still in progress on the diagnostic center.
Future mission trips are being scheduled to complete this center. The program is pointed to, with pride, by Government and Tribal leaders alike. Each year we send an average of 20 individuals with special skills in building renovation, programming design and training, and evangelism. Capital Improvements require capital investment. We presently have to ship water into our facility daily, as no permanent water supply is available.
