Wheelchair Event


Once again @Wheels for the World@ came to Peru to donate wheelchairs to many children, young people and elderly, who are unable to get about due to disabilities, accidents and medical conditions. I was helping out during the week translating and with the medical team.












The wheelchairs waiting for their new owners









With Walter one our group from Villa Maria who has made great progress despite his disability. He regulary attends church and goes out and about in his neighbourhood.
Maria who is blind and unable to walk very much accompanied by her husband. They are also from the group in Villa Maria.
Please conitue to pray for all those who recieved their wheelchairs and walking frames, that they will make a difference to their lives. I give thanks for the opportunity to pray with all those who came, some struggling in their situations others with a strong faith which enables them to have hope for the future. Pray for those with limited resources who are unable to keep up with medication, especially those with epilepsy or diabetis. Pray for improved health care in Peru so that these conditions are covered and catered for within the healthcare system.
