Last week a team of us travelled 8 and a half hours south to a town called Egbe. Egbe is made up of mostly Yoruba people which are the third largest people group in Nigeria, next to the Hausa and Igbo's.
A few SIM missionaries are opening a Spring of Life in Yorubaland; they have their official opening in two weeks. They have already started doing HIV testing and counseling many of the nurses and staff at Egbe Hospital. The hope is that members from the community will come to get tested, and be more aware of the presence and danger of HIV/AIDS.
