The Call that Changed
my Life
This inspiring story tells of the courage of a young Ghanaian boy who, having failed to achieve his aim to become a medical doctor by attending a university in Ghana or by virtue of a scholarship to the USSR, raised funds by working on a building site in Nigeria to pay for a daring one-way flight to East Berlin to become an asylum seeker in West Berlin—a route by which he realised his dreams and became a medical doctor in Germany.

The Call that Changed My Life is a Christian autobiographical
book by Robert Peprah-Gyamfi, who came from Ghana to become a medical
doctor in Germany. It is an inspiring testimony of how God called him to
be a doctor and led him to work in Europe. It is an uplifting and
encouraging book, showing how faith in God and a firm goal together with
perseverance will lead to success.
It was early on, when the author was still a struggling student in Ghana, that he received a powerful visual manifestation of his goal—a vision of himself and a friend meeting in a street in Europe—and it is this visual goal that spurred him on in overcoming countless hurdles, first as a construction worker in Nigeria, then as an asylum seeker in Berlin, and later as a medical student in Germany threatened with deportation! It is a powerful, heart-warming testimony written with a sincerity that flows from the author’s total commitment to his calling. About the author
