'Wheels for the World'








This week a team from the New Mexico branch of 'Joni and friends' joined a team gathered from churches here in Lima to give out wheelchairs and other equipment to those living with various physical disabilities. Once again I was translating and also once again I was convicted by God that this is where his heart is and that we need to minister and encourage these people.

The week of 22 - 26th November we are partnering with a physical therapy team from MMI, Mision Medical International, to provide therapy sessions and also give out wheelchairs and aids. People from MMi were able to meet with the Joni and friends coordinators to see how best we can work together in the future and serve more effectively combining areas of expertise and resources.
