February Trip Report

Wow-what a week! 72 men and women from 4 states (AL, GA, FL and MI) gave their time Feb 6-13 to serve the people of Belize. This was, by far, the largest group to ever go with Fishers of Men on a single trip. Once again, God provided!!

They met both medical and dental needs of over 2500 people in that week. There were 7 doctors who saw 1500 patients and 9 dentists saw approximately 1000 patients. The team worked in several villages, with the largest being the Valley of Peace.

However, the most important statistic of all is 24 persons placed their faith and trust in Christ and Christ alone!! Meeting the physical needs is only a means to reach people and let them know we care in order to meet the most important need of all--their need for a Savior!!

This trip, as with all, would not be possible without the prayer and financial support of many friends and family. Thank you to everyone who made this trip possible!!

Please continue to pray for Fishers of Men as we seek to follow God's leading in serving the people of Belize. We are humbled and honored that He would choose to use many of us, as we are well aware He can accomplish His work without us.

Please continue to check back for more updates--Exciting news will be coming from Fishers of Men in the next few months about expanded ministry opportunities, so be sure to check back soon.
