Medical Mission
ROSA
MYSTICA
August 10-16, 2008
DAY 3: August 12
The whole world is turned towards the Philippines
Thanks to ACIM, the Philippines are not forgotten from the rest of the
world. Volunteers, medical teams, doctors and religious from all horizons
join the mission. They are Malaysian, South Koreans, Canadians, Filipinos
but also French, Polish or even New Zealanders or Americans.
They all have one goal: to heal! To heal bodily wounds for the ones, to heal spiritual wounds for the others. For more than 10 hours, dentists (they were 14 today!) pediatricians, general practicioners, pharmacists and nurses bandage wounds, extracted teeth. The young Bethanians were catechizing, the priests were blessing, confessing, offering the Holy Mass. Thanks to ACIM's network, the grievous cases were referred to local specialists who will take care of them freely.
The continuity of medical care is guaranteed.
14 dentists worked non-stop.
All took refuge under the mantle of Our Lady of Mount Carmel
What
anxiety in the eyes of this mother who,
like so many others, see the doctor for the first time!
How many months before reaching this stage?
More photos to be added as the mission advances....
