David and Josie Skavdahl
Bongolo, Gabon - Christian Health Service Corps
Drs. David and Josie Skavdahl have wanted to serve in resource-poor medical settings since they met. After completing medical training, they adopted 4 children to join this adventure: Noa, Maria, Micah, and Anica. They now live, work, and play at Bongolo Hospital in Gabon, west Africa.
David is operating and training the next generation of Christian African surgeons. Josie is training new midwives and taking care of newborns. They are grateful to be a part of Bongolo Hospital, to see God glorified as people are healed, saved, equipped, and sent.
