Message from Carol

We are so very thankful for the opportunity to be a part of the Cien Fuegos medical mission.  The graduate students rocked!  Over 600 patients received care at the clinic.  Our hearts melted for the people.  Every night we fell into bed exhausted.  I can't say that we felt satisfied at the end of every day because we wanted to do so much more for the people.  Their poverty was overwhelming to us, yet they maintained a joyful spirit and expressed great appreciation for the most basic of care.

Plans are beginning for next spring.  The Pontificia Universidad Catolica Madre y Maestra would like to collaborate on a project in addition to our work with Barnabas Task.  What opportunities await the IPFW students and the Republica Dominicana students!
