    Hi lovely people, thank you so much for your generous support of this project! Alongside local staff we were able to complete 116 operations in eight days at Luanza hospital, Katanga province, DRC. We worked with seven Congolese doctors and three nurses and we all learned heaps. We were able to take four medical ebooks to the doctors and I have sent the remaining $2400 you donated to the organisation as a contribution to the costs of the teaching campaign (the patients received the surgery for free).

    These committed, clever, hard working brothers and sisters continue their work serving their people, and your contribution has helped to equip them - thank you.

    For more information, feel free to get in touch with me ericamillar.nz@gmail.com. I'd love to hear from you xx Erica

  • Thank you

    Hey team, thank you so much for your generous support! I have enough now for the other half of my ticket ($1250) :) the rest of the funds raised will go towards getting ten text books (requested by the Medical Director in Congo) in digital format to be used by the medical students. If there is extra money it will be gifted to the Congolese team to go towards purchasing more Swahili Bibles, or whatever they deem to be the most pressing need. Praise God who equips us to do what he calls us to do :)
