Medical Missions

2024 Mission Team Makes a BIG Impact!



Video produced by Dr. Michelle Hurless


610 Patients, 29 Corrective Surgeries, 2 Orphanages Treated and 45 Volunteers!

Thank you to EVERYONE for their support, team attitude and generosity. When you see a mother cry because we were able to help her child walk without pain or get hugged by a man who was selected for surgery so he could work without pain for the first time in 15 years – it is all worth it!
