Remembering Merle Watts, DVM

We mourn the loss of Dr. Merle Watts of Tucson, AZ. He passed away December 27, 2011 at age 85. Following his two-year service in the US Marine Corps, he attended and graduated from Kansas State College in 1953 with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree.

Shortly after Merle married Louie Kitchen, the couple moved to Colorado Springs where he built the Fillmore Veterinary Hospital, specializing in the care of dogs and cats. For 35 years, he appreciated relationships with his…

"It All Started With a Sick Sheep"

How do you serve people who don’t trust you? For Medsend grant recipient Barry Schwenk, DVM, the answer came in the form of an “old woman” and a little girl. Almost four years ago, the Schwenks went to Northwest Ethiopia to serve the Gumuz, former slaves who live in clans and eke out a living by hunting and farming. But the Gumuz are deeply suspicious of outsiders and initially resisted the Schwenks’ ministry, which includes…

Thank you for the kind invitation to add God's Creatures Ministry to your Professional forum. We help people with veterinarian services across the USA.
We are a very small group, and always in need to help others. We also have a 'Walk a Mile' form for anyone to use to raise funds either for themselves or for our general fund. The simple forms are available per request (and for personal use, after screening with vet info). Jan, President - Godscre@msn.com

Hi, thanks, sounds great! I'll check it out. Me and my family are alright, nothing happened to our house or anything, we we're really blessed. It was really scary for all of us though. It's been hard for the country, there's a lot of people affected down in the south. Thanks for asking!

Thank you Diana for this koinonia social network and apologies for this belated response.
I got the Autumn 2009 of CHRISTIAN VETERINARIAN, a few days ago plus the newsletters of the longterm missionaries that usually accompanies the package. I spent the weekend going through. Everytime I receive the package, there is a renewed stirring in my spirit towards veterinary mission. This time around it was more than a renewed stirring, it was a gush in my spirit. It coincided with the Mission Week of my local Church here in Ibadan, Nigeria, where I renewed commitment to missions, (to follow up an earlier commitment a month earlier during the Mission Sunday of my prayer partners' church I attended a month ago).
EVERYBODY PRAY FOR ME PLEASE. I strongly feel I am about to enter the next phase of my calling in missions, particularly veterinary missions. Incidentally, 11th November 2009 marks the 23rd anniversary of the date I heard distinctively from the Holy Spirit that I am called post-DVM graduation to use my profession to facilitate missions. I spent the 1st 11 years after the call (1987-1998) to use my veterinary profession facilitate the opening of missionary fields among five unreached tribes in Niger state Nigeria (including the Kamberi, Dukkawa and Fulani tribes). During that period, I was also led to do my Masters and PhD.
Then I have spent the last 11 years (March 1999 to date), being in academics. During this period, by His grace and in conjuction with Prof R.O. Arowolo, we were able to start off and provide leadership to Christian Veterinarians Nigeria CVN; for which I was foundation Secretary between 2002-2008. My 2-year tenure as Head of Department in my academic workplace; and CVN Editor-in -Chief/Publicity Secretary, ends in August 2010. Please pray along with me that I get clear understanding, adequate preparation and proper equipping for my next phase of calling and invovlement in Veteriary Missions, which seems to me to be at international level. PLEASE PRAY ALONG WITH ME
Waoh!...what a long comment!!

My CVM has come a long way in many ways and I guess communications has to be one of greatest change. In 1976 after going to the Domincan Republic I invited a group of vets to view my slides of my time in the DR and I thought that was sophisticated communications! Look how far we have come. The Lord has provided us with a most useful tool. Thanks for setting it upl
