While Elio was in Canada, he phoned to inform me that it seems that there is interest by some groups in sponsoring a small medical center in one of the villages we are currently building. 
Nazareth is one of the villages we are presently working in and a medical clinic is something that is greatly needed. This clinic will not only be used to treat the sick but will also be used for teaching local villagers about hygiene, nutrition and overall healthcare. This is something we take so much for granted in Canada, USA and other developed countries but here, affordable if not usually free care is only something most can only dream for. In this picture Phil and I are measuring and discussing the possible ways of designing this clinic for not only maximum use of the property available but also on how it can be done in a most cost effective way. Phil is here with an organization he and his wife, Donna, have started called Servant’s Heart Ministries (http://www.servantsheartdr.org/). This clinic will service Nazareth and at least 3 other small villages also founded by the Samaritan Foundation. We hope to start digging the footings and start construction the third week of October with the completion sometime around the beginning of November.
