Missionary Dr. Cameron Gongwer has served in Ghana for the past 14 years. Dr. Gongwer and other health care professionals have recently launched Crosspoint Global Health (CGH) to address health care needs in underserved areas.

CGH is organized to work alongside local churches for transforming communities into healthier places to live. They enlist Christian health professionals with a vision for healthy communities to serve with CGH. Functioning at the grassroots level, Dr. Cameron Gongwer and other professionals team up with community health workers, health facilities, and churches in underserved areas. Additionally, CGH contributes to healthcare staff development and translation of public health research into effective community health action. These joint efforts are designed to strengthen the capability of each local health service. Currently, outreaches are focused on communities in Ghana and Sierra Leone.

The two primary goals of CGH are to improve the quality and reach of community health services and to improve the performance capability of healthcare providers. CGH does this through health assessments and mobile medical clinics, community health outreach programs, public health and clinical care training, and global health internships. CGH workers also do child health assessments, particularly for malnutrition, malaria, and anemia, which are all significant health concerns in Africa.

CGH facilitates collaboration with local Ghanaian healthcare staff from the Ghana Health Service and Christian Health Association of Ghana to reach people in underserved areas with healthcare and the gospel. In the end, relationships are developed, churches are planted, and healthcare needs are met through integration with local services.
