Trip Description

Zambia is a landlocked country in south central Africa. Our medical team will be staying in a guesthouse in Copperbelt Province, about 100* miles north of Lusaka, and working with national pastors. We leave the USA on Friday to arrive by Sunday morning. Sunday we will prepare the pharmacy. Monday to Friday we will hold simple clinics in local churches. Saturday, after some tourist shopping, we will start the trip back to the USA to arrive by Sunday.

A key component of each clinic is taking patient histories, which is done in partnership with bilingual nationals. After taking the histories, which are given to the doctors, the history takers then present the gospel to those who have given them permission. At the end of each day, we take time to debrief and pray for the next day's activities.
