Medical Screening


This past Tuesday a medical team of 15 was flown up-country via a United Nations helicopter to Ganta. Ganta is near the Guinea border in Liberia. Upon arriving to Ganta hospital 200 people were in line to be screened by our team to assess if they are canidates for a surgery on board the Anastasis in Monrovia.

57 patients from Ganta were scheduled for surgery during our stay here in Liberia.

The bigger screening will take place tomorrow here in Monrovia. We hope to schedule the remaining slots for surgeries.

Please pray for all that will be involved in the screening tomorrow. That it will be peaceful and that God's plan for each person there will prevail. This is a country that has just been through a 14 year war, may God's peace and hope be evident even to the ones that we will not be able to help physically.
