Medical Team Takes Flight

Well, the Dayton International Airport has felt like a home away from home the last few weeks. On July 30th we welcomed Julie Mitchell home from a 3 month stay in Swaziland. On August 7th we welcomed Chris Kavcsak home from a 6 week stay in Swaziland. And today - August 13th - we said good bye to the eight members of our Medical Team who are leaving for a 14 day trip to Swaziland.

The members of our team include:

Phyllis Brown, RN
Angela Long-Prentice, M.D.
Kathy Lovely-Marshall, RN
Faye McNerney, PT
Jim McNerney, D.O.
Sarah Miller
Niles Syska, DDS
Jenna Weaver

Once in Swaziland, the Medical Team will be serving with The Luke Commission. TLC is a Christian medical mission serving remote regions in southern Africa. They take their mobile medical clinic to rural villages, schools, churches, chief's kraals, and orphan care points and offer free medical care, free medications, free HIV testing and counseling, free vision care, free eyeglasses, free Bibles and the Hope of the Gospel. Their current efforts are concentrated in the bush of Swaziland, which made them a logical partner for CLC. This is our first partnership with the Luke Commission and, with God's blessing, we look foward to sending additional teams in the future. You can learn more about The Luke Commission at http://www.lukecommission.org.



CLC's Medical Team was commissioned during the weekend services on August 7th &
8th ....






.....and they were covered in prayer again at the airport.












We ask that you continue to remember this team in prayer until their return on August 26th. Please pray as well for the communities that will be serviced when the team is there. Very large crowds are expected at all the locations.

Thanks to all the family members who supported their loved ones in going on this trip. May God keep you safe, provide for your needs and keep you united in spirit until your family member returns.
