Sarah Cooper’s Blog

Welcome!

Hello and thanks for checking out my blog. I’ve never attempted to have one of these, so we’ll see how I do. I am getting ready to go to Nalerigu, Ghana in Northwest Africa for 5 weeks. I leave on Dec. 30 and return to the states on February 5. I am going with a fellow medical student, Kristin Thornton, so check out her blog too. I will be working at the Baptist Medical Center. Here is the website for your reference: http://www.baptistmedicalcenter.org

Needless to say, I am very excited to go on this medical mission. I have had several experiences with international missions before and a couple of these were medical in nature. My previous trips were about 10 days in length, so I am excited for this first, longer trip. I am looking forward to being able to more completely immerse myself in the culture and hopefully have more to offer and learn in the longer time frame.

Merry Christmas!
