Shisong Heart Call: Merry Christmas

I returned from Shisong on December 4 and will return there early in 2016. We were able to complete 12 open heart surgeries in addition to those congenital operations performed by the San Donato Mission in November. Our patient population remains extremely dependent on external sponsorship to make surgery available for poor patients. I am particularly grateful to Fr. Herald Brock of Franciscan Mission Outreach and the team from Mi-Do for their commitment to fundraising to sponsor patients who need non-congenital heart surgery. Please see below for our current group of patients awaiting funding and if you are among my readers who pray, pray for us and these patients.
