First Presbyterian Church of Magnolia, Arkansas
First Presbyterian Church of Magnolia has established a fund for The Guy Njewel Medical Center in memory and honor of Dr. Guy Martial Njewel.
The objective is to build and equip a clinic in the village near Guy’s final resting place in NkooKomb, Cameroon. This will help facilitate much needed medical access and assistance at no cost to an underserved rural population. Many people in this area spend years without access to a doctor, medication, and other medical supplies. Providing access to medical care was very near and dear to Guy’s heart. Guy was inspired years ago to meet this need after seeing what First Presbyterian Church of Magnolia and Dr. Barnett and wife Corey did during a medical mission trip to Cameroon. Guy had continued to help provide medical access to the area, and had future hopes of expanding to a full free medical clinic.
Approximately $130,000 is needed to build the clinic. The clinic will also need talented health care professionals to volunteer of their time. Commitments to assistant with medical care on an annual basis or more have been received from Dr. Marie Stella Tanje (Cleaveland), Dr. Mimo Lemdja (Magnolia), Dr. Kon Njewel (Chicago), and Dr. Serge Yick (Little Rock).

Anyone wishing to donate in support of this mission may do so by contacting the church office or by making a gift online through First Presbyterian Church of Magnolia website. Please designate the gift to the GUY NJEWEL MEDICAL CENTER. This clinic will be such a blessing to the area and such a wonderful way to honor Guy’s legacy while spreading Christ’s love.
Next Steps...
The Guy Njewel Medical Center officially opened and was dedicated in May 2026. During the opening weekend, the Medical Center provided care to more than 200 patients from the surrounding community.
A special presentation and update on the Medical Center will be held on Wednesday, September 16. Everyone is invited to attend and hear more about the clinic, its opening, and the work being done to provide much-needed medical care in Cameroon. A light meal will be served.
