Early January Medical Team 2010

This week my church, Zion Tabernacle, borrowed my farm and held a medical clinic and at the same time gave away childrens shoes and toys. Also they gave away food donated from the United States, sorted, packaged and moved by the local church here in Honduras.

The group of volunteers from the church pray before beginning the clinic.

Locals from the community wait in line to be seen. 100+ kids and over 50 families from the community were represented and received free care.

Before, during and after the brigades there is always time to have fun!

July 12 2009 Wheelchair Giveaway At Zion Tabernacle

Today at church I was able to give away two wheelchairs. It was a sad giveaway for me because there was a young girl who was shot in the head during cross fire between gangs. She was on her school bus riding home innocently sitting in her seat when gang members started shooting at each other across the street, her bus was between the two gangs and she was shot. She is recovering ever so slowly.

The other woman who received a chair has been an invalid since birth. Her mother brought her to church in order to have a chair gifted to her.

Both left very pleased with their new chairs.
