"I'm happy to be here because the people need us. Sometimes you get there, there's no road — you have to create the road for yourself. … It's a kind of joy, you know."

—Holy Spirit Missionary Sr. Mary Nkrumah, quoted in "A long road to rural health care: Sisters serve Ghana's remote villages," published on Global Sisters Report
