Following the last ZEST mission trip to India in January 2017, the Committee raised funds to assist a number of people with urgent medical needs they could not pay for. $15,791 was raised to assist 23 people needing a range of medical issues including cataract surgery, cancer surgery, a prosthetic leg, kidney stones, and skin disease. Pastor Ebenezer who heads the mission writes, “Thank you for your generous support to send people to the doctors and providing medication for the people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making a difference in people’s lives in this way” We still need to raise a further $5,600 to meet the needs identified.
