| The
Medical Team -
An effort to reach
people in need, in remote mountain communities, was accomplished by
establishing a temporary facility in a school house and churches, then
opening the doors to everyone. Doctors and nurses from the Nicaragua
Christian Doctors Association and Dr. Gabriela Castillo of Costa Rica
joined doctors, nurses and volunteers from the U.S.A. to work with H.O.W.
to meet the many needs encountered. |

Jinotega, Nicaragua
Medical services to communities
of Tierra Caliente and Chaguite Grande and Bello Amanecer were provided.
One community had never received "out of the area" aid of any kind from any
organization. This was a first. H.O.W. was honored to share with
them our talents that day.
This one week operation
included medical, dental, and optical services free of charge to the
communities. The Lions Club provided eyeglasses toward this effort.
|
H.O.W. provided the pharmaceuticals from the U.S.A. by funds
donated. It was received as a total blessing by the people served.
Thank you. Parasites, dental decay, fungus infections
are common issues in these areas. Ministry was made available to each person and 147 people accepted Jesus as Lord
in his or her life as the medical team worked on the physical needs.
