Village Medical Team Outreach - 500 Glasses & 400 Teeth
One of our most exciting blessings this month was the opportunity to minister to the Tarahumara Indians in several remote villages. God used an evangelistic team of doctors, dentists and nurses to open doors in several ways. For many of the village people, it was their only opportunity to receive medical care. Not only did we have a chance to get personally involved with the people as we interpreted for the doctors, we also had the chance to witness and preach the Word of God.
We visited eight different towns in eight days. While it was physically challenging, it was also spiritually invigorating. It felt good to be used of God to make a difference for Christ both spiritually and physically. We were able to provide over 500 prescription eye glasses fitted to each recipient, pulled over 400 bad teeth and saw hundreds with general medical concerns, dispensing vitamins and medication to each.
We even fashioned a custom hearing aid for one elderly man. We also had the opportunity of leading many people to faith in Christ and laying the foundation for future ministry. In one village, we were invited us to come back and were offered the village hall to hold Bible services. We look forward to following up on the work God did that week and praise the Lord for the Christians who cared enough to come and serve the mountain people. It’s tremendous to see how God works!
