We had a great week of medical and dental work with a team from Independent Presbyterian Church from Memphis, Tennessee. This team had several physicians, dentists, nurses, a nutritionist and a nurse practitioner student and others who were able to provide a variety of services to patients in need in and around the city. Monday we held the campaign in the neighborhood of Manuel Arevalo, Tuesday we worked in a small sugarcane farming community north of Trujillo called Mocollope. On Wednesday the campaign was held in Parque Industrial. Thursday we went out to Clementina, a small community on the outskirts of Wichanzao. Friday’s campaign was out in Hogar de Esperanza an orphanage that the mission has been working with.
The team was able to provide medical and dental services to hundreds of folks in one week! These communities are in serious need of the physical healing and medicine that short term teams bring, and these campaigns always open doors for long term relationships with both Peruvian and American pastors and missionaries. We always enjoy working with this team and look forward to seeing them again next year!
