A few months ago, we told you about a “double-header” Medical Outreach we had planned for new locations in Ethiopia. We recently returned from these two back-to-back Clinics.

Because of you, we were able to conduct a five-day Clinic in Alamata, which is about 250 miles north of the capital city of Addis Ababa. We ...
