With the help of Mexican translators and pastors, the medical teams set up clinics in the outlying areas of the community where medical attention is limited or absent. The medical clinics are based on Biblical holistic medical care and focus to build up disadvantaged individuals and communities by incorporating health care, evangelism, medicine, and health education into their daily lifestyles. A team of doctors, nurses, students are needed to conduct clinics in these communities. It is a great hands-on experience for nursing, physician assistant, and medical students. Non-medical participants are also welcome and can be used according to their gifts and abilities as well as add support to our medical team.
