Medical Outreach

Above: Random street.

So. Medical outreach. Our YWAM base here in Juarez does it every year to help the community in a real and practical way, and next week, my team gets to be a part of it! Professional doctors and medics from the U.S. have been invited, and other lay-people will come as well to help with logistics and coordinating. Health stations will be set up around the city where the public can come to receive free health care. In the process, they get free vaccines, medicine for common health ailments (which many of them cannot afford), vitamins, and products especially for women. They can also get answers to any health questions they might have.

We're looking forward to being a part of it and blessing our community through it. Our base undertakes this big event twice a year, and as far as my team goes, our role will be to step in wherever we are needed.

I hope this gives you an idea for the kind of hands-on experience that I am receiving here. In other words, I am not just studying and attending class, but am also participating in outreach events that involve meeting actual needs in a practical way. And it's a great combination, because we get to stretch our minds, but also be active in applying the convictions that first propagated our studies!
