Dr. Mark Howarter, owner of The Chiropractic Experience Wellness Center, Lawrence, is preparing to leave for Ghana, where he and other health care professionals soon will be on a mission to heal the sick and provide spiritual guidance.

During the trip – set for June 21 to July 1 – Howarter and his colleagues expect to care for 15,000 to 30,000 people. Services will range from providing chiropractic adjustments, preaching in churches and small groups, praying with families in their homes and otherwise visiting the sick.

Staying in Lawrence while Howarter is away will be Shelby McDaniel, chiropractic assistant; Leah Henderson, office manager; and Lisa Lahm and Mary Glasgow, massage therapists.
