Update- Under a $1

Just an update on the Centre de Santé Health Centres in Guinea. Thanks to the amazing generosity of many, we were able to present the Assemblies of God Church with $750 USD to further medical aid for local Guineans. I presented the money in cash to Jonathan (above), our contact and also a pastor of The Assemblies of God Church, at the day worker celebration in May. I was able to give him a few Aussie souvenirs as well. He was overjoyed and wanted me to express his thanks to the generous people of Australia! So well done guys!!

This is what you have achieved EITHER:
5,000 vaccinations OR
5,000 worm treatments OR
50,000 Paracetamol tablets OR
1,228 Malaria tests OR
2,000 Doctor's consultations OR
2,000 Prescriptions OR
2,000 Lab services
 
 Thanks for being a part of the vision and for furthering the work of the Centre de Santé. Before we departed Guinea, Jonathan delivered two thank you letters to the ship from the Assemblies of God Church board. The first letter is in reference to your kind donations and the second letter is in reference to repairs that Andrew was able to make on one of their land rovers that was originally donated by Mercy Ships ten years ago. Below is a translation of the letters as they are in French. Sorry I had to use Google translate so the translation is not perfect and the old saying that things are lost in translation, I’m sure applies!
