Dental Ministry reaching new communities – EIRENE MINISTRIES BI-MONTHLY DENTAL REPORT – MARCH/APRIL 2010
In order to better utilize the opportunities for service with our mobile dental unit and to seek to fulfill our mission statement, starting in March, we have begun to take the dental services to various communities of need. The idea is to provide services in communities where there is no dentist or to persons who otherwise could not afford the service.
During March, I went and worked at a Baptist church called “The Good Shepherd.” This church is located in the community of Santa Margarita in Zapopan. The pastor of the church, Jesús Hernandez, worked alongside of me in lining up patients and taking care of providing for anything I needed while operating the clinic. The clinic was available for anyone in the community and it was open for five days. During these five days, I was able to perform extractions, cleanings, fillings, as well as, other services.
During April, because of the two weeks off from school for Holy Weeks, we did not seek out a community to serve in. The clinic was open for normal service in Santa Ana, but because of vacations, the clinic saw fewer patients.
