Medical Missions

Medical missions are advertised in the same manner as our vision clinics, and patients pass through the evangelism station on their way into the clinic. Once inside, each person sees a doctor or nurse for their issues and then pass on to the pharmacy, where appropriate meds are dispensed. Medical teams are also capable of treating one thousand in a day.

Cost: $2400 + air fare
Led by experienced team leaders
