Medical Mission The last Saturday of September, we participated in a medical mission with Christian doctors, nurses, and volunteers from Danang Churches. LOVE’s volunteer, Thanh Trinh, also went and had this to say: “A few weeks ago I had an opportunity to participate in helping the medical team of Christians provide free medical care and medicine. There were many people who come to get care. Most of them are very old. Doctors, nurses and other volunteers were very friendly. Besides Vietnamese doctors, there was a Korean eye doctor. Although there was a little problem, thank God that everything worked out well. Everybody really felt happy when finished because each person was cared for.” |
