I’m surrounded. That may be an overstatement, but I feel like the conversations I have every week here in the States include at least one “knee replacement” surgery of someone I know. Even among the FAME staff, there are close connections to knee replacement surgeries this month!
And we have good shoes, cars, safe environments, and GREAT medical care options including follow-up care!
One FAME shipping partner serves in Ecuador doing orthopedic surgeries on people who would never have such an opportunity! This ministry started by two orthopedic surgeons from Alabama now has treated thousands of patients for nearly 40 years.
But most moving is the work they do with children. These children and their families have been able to not only receive the hope that comes after such a surgery…but they have heard the good news of the gospel. This surgery center shares the gospel to those people who otherwise have no hope to correct their musculoskeletal conditions.
Another shipping partner is arriving today to pick up walkers and other mobility equipment from your FAME Indianapolis warehouse. But even more shocking to me was when one ministry partner had such a need, that they were able to have FAME ship 434 walkers to their global workers!
Thank you for your partnership in Medical Evangelism!
