“We are going to be addressing their most common ailments in our environments; malaria, diabetes, hypertension, ulcers, and others.
“We diagnose and treat them, and also use the opportunity to introduce them to what is the only guarantee to perfect health which is divine health because majority of illnesses for the most fact are as a result is the transgression of the law of God that we humans is knowingly or unknowingly, and when we do not know Satan surreptitiously brings us into sin that brings the consequences of sickness, particularly, the chronic illnesses, and this is why we are here to treat the people.
“Our General Superintendent, (GS), the Convener of GCK, Pastor (Dr) William Kumuyi, so this vision to employ our profession, which has to do with the preservation of life, we bring this to the people in the process reveal to them that we as doctors, nurses, pharmacists of the medical profession, we can indeed treat the people but healing is the exclusive preserve of God Almighty.
“The provision we have will attend to thousands of patients, we are not attending only to people around the Alpha Location but we are also going to the prisons, where we will attend to the inmates and workers there also. This is to bring hope to those there.

The GCK Medical Mission is like a forerunner to the GCK, and when we come we bring the awareness of the GCK, we sensitize them, and we give them expectation on what they will receive form the GCK in addition to attending to their health needs.
“Before we get to each location we do a survey of the area, and the cholera is a nationwide epidemic, and we have bigger consignments for the treatment of gastroenteritis, particularly targeting cholera. We are prepared to attend to 5,000 patients in Gwagwalada for these five days”.
