Health Month in Ghana: Promoting Wellness at Trinity Foundation

Trinity Foundation: Global Servants in West Africa

In West Africa, Global Servants is known locally as Trinity Foundation, a ministry that has been serving communities in Ghana for decades through education, evangelism, and community development. At Trinity Foundation Anwomaso in Kumasi, health and wellness are not just annual concerns—they are a vital part of ministry and service to others.


The Birth of Health Month

A few years ago, the church aligned with a national health initiative and expanded it into what is now known as Health Month—a dedicated time each year to focus on physical well-being, preventive care, and education for church members and the surrounding community.


Early Efforts: Screenings That Saved Lives

Over the past few years, Health Month has grown into a comprehensive outreach program addressing multiple aspects of health. It began with breast cancer screenings for women from Trinity Foundation Anwomaso, Trinity Foundation Duase Prospect, and the general public. These screenings have helped identify early-stage conditions, and those diagnosed with lumps or other concerns received support and assistance through surgery—providing both medical help and hope.

People gathered indoors, seated at tables, some looking at fabric; some are talking.

Expanding Care and Community Outreach

Building on that success, the program expanded to include eye and Ear-Nose-Throat (ENT) screenings, ensuring that members and local residents had access to quality preventive care. Once again, individuals needing further medical attention or surgical procedures were guided and supported throughout their treatment process.


Health Month 2025: Education, Prevention, and Access

This year’s 2025 Health Month continued that tradition with a strong emphasis on education and accessibility. The month began with a series of health talks covering topics such as dietary wellness for the working class, eye health, and the causes and prevention of heart attacks. These sessions provided practical knowledge to empower participants to make healthier daily choices.

Expanding Access Through National Health Insurance

To conclude the month’s activities, Trinity Foundation partnered with local health officials to assist community members in renewing or enrolling in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS). This vital government program provides access to healthcare services across Ghana, and through this initiative, those whose insurance had expired—and even those who had never registered—were signed up to receive coverage.


Serving the Whole Community

The event was open to the entire community and drew an encouraging turnout from both church members and local residents. With each year, Health Month continues to strengthen the bond between Trinity Foundation and the surrounding communities, demonstrating the love of Christ through compassion, education, and service.

As one volunteer shared,


“Caring for the body is also part of caring for the soul. Through these health outreaches, we are showing God’s love in a tangible way.”

A Note from Travis Rutland


Health Month is a wonderful example of how Global Servants and our partners in Ghana are meeting both physical and spiritual needs. When we help people gain access to medical care, health insurance, and education, we’re not just improving lives—we’re sharing the hope of Christ in practical and lasting ways. I am so proud of the Trinity Foundation team for serving their community with such compassion and excellence.

At one of our Trinity Foundation churches outside of Kumasi, Pastor Peter Antwi knows this challenge well. Each Sunday, families from several surrounding villages want to attend church, but distance and lack of transportation often stand in the way. Some walk miles to get there. Others stay home because they simply have no way to come. The Challenge of Reaching Everyone For years, Pastor Peter and his team have done everything possible to make church accessible. They’ve borrowed vehicles when they could, or used small taxis to pick up a few people at a time. But each week, dozens are still left behind—not because they don’t want to come, but because they can’t get there. A dependable church van would change everything. It would allow Pastor Peter to gather children for Sunday school, bring elderly members safely to worship, and make it possible for entire families to attend together. It would also help the church reach nearby villages, providing transportation for outreach events, youth gatherings, and special services. More Than a Vehicle — It’s a Way to Bring People Together In Ghana, a church van is more than transportation—it’s ministry in motion. It represents belonging, opportunity, and connection. Each trip to pick up a family is a reminder that the church isn’t just a building—it’s people coming together to worship, learn, and grow in faith. When Global Servants provides a van, we’re not just giving a vehicle—we’re helping make church possible for people who otherwise couldn’t come. Every mile driven carries people closer to God and closer to one another. The Road Doesn’t End at $20,000 This year, our Giving Tuesday goal is to raise $20,000 to purchase a new van for Pastor Peter Antwi’s church in Ghana. But the road doesn’t end at $20,000. Every dollar given beyond that goal will help fund our Clean Water Projects—digging new wells and providing water filter kits for families across Ghana. $10,000 can build a new well that provides clean water for an entire village $50 provides a water filter kit for a family Together, we can help Pastor Peter bring more people to church and bring clean water to their communities.
