Everyone needs a place where they can feel calm. Our Jesus Healing Center is considered a “haven of peace” for all those who are in need, all those who cannot get to other hospitals for treatment, and all those who are in terror because of the activities of armed gangs who are killing, stealing, and raping people on the road.
Some disguise themselves as “madmen” in order to cross gang areas unseen to arrive at our Clinic. The Jesus Healing Center is considered the best place where the poor can take refuge. Today we welcomed 133 patients, and they came from many different areas of Haiti… They came by foot, by tap tap, by donkey, or any way they could. They came there with the assurance that they would find the best doctors, the best medicines, and the care that their case requires.
At first, the Jesus Healing Center was housed in a small building. But now, with God’s help, we have a big clinic (people call it a “hospital”) that serves thousands of people. Our Clinic includes a large modern laboratory, a pharmacy, a huge emergency room, seven (7) consultation rooms, a room to vaccinate newborns, and an ambulance to transfer patients if necessary.
In Haiti, food, medicines, medical care, and security are four crucial elements they need. Unfortunately, the latter are so rare. Despite the fact that the times are difficult, that does not prevent us from taking care of many of those who are in need with love, respect, and the dignity of the poor, because this is our mission and our passion.
God bless our wonderful partners for making this possible.
