Thank you, Dr. Jim and Team

Thank you, Dr. Jim and Team
A big thanks to Dr. Jim Hines and Martha and the medical team who did exams on hundreds of orphans, including 325 Project Hope & Charité and Hand in Hand orphans. They spent two days doing exams on orphans in Bangui, then packed tents and supplies and headed north with the intention of doing exams on Hand in Hand children in the city of Bossangoa where there are 5 Hand in Hand schools.

Ginger Hock, GBIM staff Bangui writes, "God had other plans. We were unable to travel the dirt roads due to heavy rains. But the team was flexible, so we set up camp inside a church in Bossembele and spent the next 2 days seeing orphans from 3 different Hand in Hand schools in that area. The gospel of Christ was presented each day and several children made decisions for Christ, receiving healing spiritually as well as being treated medically. I am so grateful for the 3 doctors, 3 nurses, 1 lab technician and 3 helpers who worked so hard to make life a little better for these children."

Thanks: Jim, Martha, Grant, Karen, Tim, Sally, Connie, Titus, Joanna and Emily.
