In Durham, Christians are engaged in providing health care to the poor at Samaritan Health Center.  Others are doing this work in Chicago, Nashville, Memphis, Los Angeles, Lancaster, Jellico, Orlando, San Antonio, Portland, Philadelphia and Bloomington.  Elizabeth Brill and I just got back from a CCHF (Christian Community Health Fellowship) annual conference where we personally met people from each of these places and heard about still more.  It was a good time of comparing notes and renewing vision. 

Jesus heals broken people.  Broken people like us know this from firsthand experience.  Staff and volunteers, when you work at SHC, he works through your hands and minds and words to bring healing to brokenness.  Thank you for being used in this way.  The work we are doing together at SHC is more powerful than our strength and more life giving than our best medicine would be alone.  Thank you for being a part of the work here at Samaritan Health Center.
