“I met a little boy and his mother who had both suffered a terrible amount of abuse and misfortune in their lives while on this trip. I am not a doctor, but just being present and supporting the effort to create a treatment plan for the little boy and generally giving him and his mother emotional support felt like some of the most important things I have ever done. This trip also inspired my decision to go to med school, so hopefully I myself can create lasting change later.” – Anonymous . .

#Repost @hjmsprague Over the last two weeks I have had the opportunity to scrub in on and observe surgeries in the OR here in Alfonso Lista. God is truly using these doctors and the team to bring the people here the gospel and to brighten the quality of life for the people here. It has been a humbling privilege to see! #MMI #IHM
Jonathan was born blind with bilateral congenital cataracts – and in his country of Colombia, his life expectancy was significantly reduced. At five years old, Jonathan and his mother came to the Medical Ministry International vision clinic in Riohacha in hopes that the ophthalmologists could do something to help Jonathan. After an examination, Jonathan received surgery on both of his eyes. When his eyepatches were taken off the next day, Jonathan and his mother were filled with joy upon realizing that Jonathan could see for the very first time in his life! The optical team fitted Jonathan with reading glasses to improve his vision even further, and this mother and son duo returned home - their lives changed forever.

“I initially decided to go on this trip to gain experience in a hospital environment and, in particular, expand my knowledge in medicine. I did not anticipate leaving the country with some of the most valuable memories of my college career. During those two weeks, not only did I learn more about medicine, but, I also had the opportunity to grow under the guidance of some of the most caring medical professionals, develop a passion for surgery, and gain a deeper understanding of what it truly means to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus Christ. This trip has undoubtedly left a mark on my life and the values I plan to execute throughout my pursuit of becoming a true healer.” . . Alyse Delcambre is an undergraduate student studying biology at Texas State University. Last summer, she served as a surgical team member in the Dominican Republic. This June, she'll be returning to the DR to serve again! If you'd like to serve on a medical trip with us, check out the link in our bio.
