Chad | Catherine's Chat

https://catgrier.bodbaptist.org.uk/chad

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. Chad is a central African land-locked country, which became independent from France in 1960. It is 16.3 times the size of Scotland but has only twice the population and 27% urbanisation. As a result, many people never have access to health care or education. Only 14% of births are attended by a trained attendant and as a result, the maternal mortality is one of the highest in the world. Seulement 14% des naissances sont suivies par quelqu’un qual...

Sitting on a mat | Catherine's Chat

https://catgrier.bodbaptist.org.uk/2012/05/30/sitting-on-a-mat

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. Sitting on a mat. Here in Bebalem, some of the most important, refreshing, energising and fun moments are had by sitting with friends on mats under trees. I have had no outgoing e-mail for weeks, as the reception has not been strong enough, so please be patient with me if you have sent me an e-mail and I have not answered. Sometimes ‘snail mail’ is faster here than waiting for the reception to be strong enough to send or receive an e-mail. I was ...

Meningitis, malnutrition and ‘muru’ moments. | Catherine's Chat

https://catgrier.bodbaptist.org.uk/2012/02/25/meningitis-malnutrition-and-muru-moments

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. Meningitis, malnutrition and ‘muru’ moments. I hate meningitis. The statistics for meningitis speak of a third of people dying, a third recovering and a third being left with long-term consequences. The statistics are more harrowing when you see the families and patients affected. In the middle of the stresses of dealing with meningitis and malnutrition, I am always thankful for the ‘muru’ moments. L’orientation au Kenya. Sitting on a mat. You ar...

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. I arrived safely in N’Djamena, Chad, on 11 August and am now language learning and getting used to the heat. This morning it is only 27*C, but with 84% humidity! I’m settling in well and looking forward to travelling out to the town that I’ll be living in on Saturday. I’ve nearly finished the meetings and studying in Europe and will be flying back to Chad on 11th August, God-willing. Back in the UK for a while. So now I’m back in UK and trying to...

Ambulance Driver | Catherine's Chat

https://catgrier.bodbaptist.org.uk/2014/03/30/ambulance-driver

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. Sometimes when the hospital drivers are busy or away or sick, I have been asked to drive the ambulance. I love driving, but this adds new challenges, as it is difficult not to jolt a patient while driving in thick sand! Graduation of nursing students. World Cup in Chad. Mar 30, 2014. Don’t forget to change the tyre pressure for sand (and set it back for black top). Safe journeys, Mike. Mar 31, 2014. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

I left Chad on 26th August after a miracle with a replacement passport arriving the morning before the day I was due to fly, leaving only 36 hours to get a Chadian visa into it. But during those 2 days I saw many unbelievable things and saw that God was in it all. World Cup in Chad. Feb 03, 2015. I am contacting you on behalf of my daughter, who would like to spend some time in Chad this summer....

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. World Cup in Chad. So in most other countries of the world, there is electricity. But here in Chad, not many places have electricity. And even fewer have televisions. In big towns, there are ‘cinemas’ that project onto a wall in a courtyard and have benches or seats, and even here in the village, there is a cinema.

Catherine Grier is working in Chad with AIM International. Now to start mopping up the dust. Sent from Windows Mail. Rice fields and a rest. Having just worked non-stop for the 14 days since I got back from conference, it was nice to have a rest last weekend and get out to see the rice fields. Please pray for strength, for wisdom and that I’ll know when to study, when to spend time in the hospital, when to rest and when to be out socialising. Socialising gets me into interesting conversations with pe...
