KCP Medical Camp...

Last week, we scheduled a medical camp for the children and their families. It was held at the Believers Centre Church. Jon, Dave, Dave and Steve were able to witness this first time process for the KCP. We had two nurses to do medical check ups on the children, their siblings and parents and then provided medication where it was necessary. We also provided fluoride treatments for the children's teeth.

It was a great day, and I've never heard children ask for medication like I did that day. Each child also took a deworming pill, which is now being done through the school every 3 months.

The majority of the children in the school were relatively healthy, largely due to the significant meals they are receiving. A large portion of the medication was given out to the siblings and parents. It has been incredible to see the difference in the children. The change in their bodies and energy isn't recognizable to when I met them 2 years ago.

The medical camp was a great success in large part due to the KCP staff, Pastor Isaiah, Believers Centre volunteers, and our nurses. We can thank God together for providing!
