Photo: United Methodist Church, Partners Launch Life-Saving Campaign in Cote d'Ivoire
Date:11/12/2008

Measles Initiative, the government of Cote d'Ivoire, the UN Foundation and Nothing But Nets, the United Methodist Global Health Initiative, the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR), PSI, and many others.

"As United Methodists, we believe we are called not only to speak of God's love, but by our actions, demonstrate the love of God," Huie said at the launch. "We are grateful for Bishop Benjamin Boni [of Cote d'Ivoire], for this new partnership and new possibilities for life here in Cote d'Ivoire."

Rosanie Amoakoa Atta is one of more than 1,500 people at the launch who is grateful for those possibilities. Her 10-month old son Nanan Tikoihi, was the first to be vaccinated at Alepe. Although Nanan was crying, his mother was overjoyed.

"My heart is warm," Atta said. "I feel like hitting my chest. I am very happy, because you are protecting my child from a lot of diseases."
