Caring For All Ages
// Heather Williams Katz
At our health center in Sosua, we minister to people across their lifespan.
Expectant moms come to our clinic for regular prenatal checks, and we care for them and their unborn child. After their baby is born, we continue to treat the mothers and their children as they grow and develop; the care continues into adulthood and advanced age. For many elderly people, the care we provide is invaluable to them. Most do not have any health insurance and traveling long distances to see a doctor is more difficult for them.
Some of our kindergarten students recently had an opportunity to visit our health center and meet the doctor.
Mr. Rafael Martinez is thankful for the care he receives at our health center and for the free medication.
One such person who has benefited from our services is Rafael Martinez. He is 77 years old and lives a short ten-minute walk from the health center. He suffers from diabetes and high blood pressure—both of which are treated at our health center. He has been coming to see us for more than 10 years. Every time he comes, he has a big smile on his face because he is grateful for the care and love he receives. We are thankful to be able to share God’s love with him and so many others through free medical care. ~Heather Williams Katz
