Meet Dr. Mark Jacobson
from Plaster House to Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre

Video

Part of our Phase 1 2020 Vision Capital Campaign was given to support health ministry to children in Arusha, Tanzania. Our original plan was to help build a permanent home for a "Plaster House" related to Selian Hospital.

The crash of the world economy put that project on hold. So we channeled our funds in a similar direction: operations on children at the newly built "daughter" of Selian Hospital, the Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre.

The person behind both Selian Hospital and the new Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre is Dr. Mark Jacobson, ELCA missionary and medical doctor.

Click here (or on the "Video" link above) to see a recent video on the new Centre.

The video also contains scenes shot at the "Plaster House," still in its old facilities, as well as a good over view of Selian Hospital itself.
