In the above photo (viewable if you click the link to go online) Dr Vasyl shows me how his dental treatment room has been supplied by our shipments.
Approximately 6 years ago we were contacted by a dentist who told us he worked in caring for the general public population. His name was Dr. Vasyl. He showed me a small room in a wing of the Children’s Hospital that had been offered to him so he could set up a clinic. He had nothing and heard that the churches of Christ were sending dental equipment to help the public. He was offering his services free to the poor but he had no equipment and the small room needed total renovation.
Ever since that meeting he has been attending worship and Bible study assemblies with the congregation.
The men of the Ivano-Frankivsk church of Christ wanted to help get this free clinic started but the church had no money. So the men decided they would do the labor required in the renovation—plaster, tile, plumbing, electric, door, and window.
Through our shipments and Dr Ron’s assistance we were able to provide the necessary equipment and supplies for Dr. Vasyl to get the clinic functioning.
In the container we loaded out of Judsonia on July 30 were some supplies and instruments for Dr. Vasyl. Today as I visited his clinic he wanted me to thank all for their kindness in sending these items. He said “Thanks to God and churches of Christ I am able to help ease pain for some people!”
