Medical Missions

The Good Samaritan Clinic located in Batey 7, Dominican Republic celebrated its 6th anniversary on June 16, 2009. It was begun in partnership with the Western North Carolina Conference. Over 4,000 patients have officially registered and sought clinical help two-three times a year. Focus is on the most needed people in the community who may not have employment, a steady income or work seasonal jobs. Many are children and widows. We (WNCC) are responsible for a minimum of $26,000 a year towards this ministry. This pays the doctor, nurse and other needed personnel along with basic medicines.
