Every Friday, YWAM Mountain Province is providing free glucose and blood pressure testing for people in the Bontoc area. Weekly, we serve 30 - 50 at the clinic. In addition to the actual testing, we provide counselling on diabetes and hypertension management through healthy living. Prayer and open discussions of faith point patients to the One who can heal our bodies and our spirits.
Last week, a couple of the students from our Student Sponsorship Ministry assisted the YWAM staff that coordinates this ministry. One is a nursing student and the other is majoring in science, so it was beneficial for everyone. The students gained hands-on experiences related to their fields of study while at the same time learning to serve in mercy ministry. Patients and staff enjoyed the additional help to make the testing move a little faster.
