Brian is
the Field Director of FIM-Ghana, which has adopted a
three-pronged focus for ministry: orphan care, medical care, and
church planting. In addition to leading FIM-Ghana, Brian & Debbie
will be heading up the orphan ministry. They have recently opened the House of
Mercy (HOMe) Children's Home, an infant / hospice children's home in
nearby Ogbojo; they also have two abandoned, abused, or ill children in
their own home with them. The HOMe in Ogbojo is being staffed by
Pastor William and Priscilla Deku at the Echoing Hills Community.
FIM-Ghana has commissioned Pastor Kofi Gaisie, a Ghanaian pastor, to head up the church planting ministry; he will also pastor Frafraha Baptist Church as their full-time pastor.
