First Clinic Day

We opened the doors to a new clinic in Eluwaktini and were able to see 173 patients.  We treated all sorts of disease states and saved several people.

One 95-year-old gogo came in complaining of knee pain and wanted a new cane.  After she received a new cane, she was still worried about her pain, so several people prayed a great deal more for her.  She gave us her old walking stick and started to dance!  It was an incredible testament to the attention of our team and the power of prayer!


Hey guys it's Tania!  My first day in the clinic was an exceptional one.  I met an epileptic, HIV positive woman, who recently lost both of her parents and was saved today.  It was an extremely overwhelming experience to see how God moved through this woman and how thankful she was to have us there.
