Medical Mission
ROSA
MYSTICA
August 10-16, 2008
DAY 6: August 15
A grandiose finale for ACIM ASIA and Tradition
From mouth to ear, the news spread from mountain village to mountain village.
The wave became a tidal-wave almost incontrollable in spite of the generous help of five policemen trying in vain to prevent the practitioners from being drowned by the patients themselves and shaken by the noise arising from a compact crowd. Constant threats given in the microphone in various languages and dialects to stop the mission were sheer waste of time.
There was in that sole day nearly 1000 consultations. Each practitioner could only give 2-3 minutes to their patients.
There had to be an end. The governor’s representative decided to stop all care by 7.30 pm as night had just fallen. We were drained, but how delighted to have been able to come to the aid of the poorest. It must be added that most of our patients saw a doctor for the first time in their life.
ACIM ASIA will ensure the continuity of the medical care. Mabuhay! See you next time! And welcome in advance to the 2009 Volunteers!
