Nicaragua Mission 2009

Dear Sponsors:

I can't begin to thank you enough for your support of our Mission to Nicaragua this year. We could not have accomplished all that we did without your generous contributions.

From June 20-27, our team of 19 traveled to the western highlands of Nicaragua. We brought medical, dental, and health and comfort care to hundreds of inhabitants of the remote villages of the area. We are the only dentists that will visit these folks this year and perhaps one of very few medical teams. Our dentists performed hundreds of extractions and restorations. Our doctor, nurse and pharmacist examined and provided prescription pharmaceuticals for hundreds of men, women, and children. We provided reading glasses, flip-flops, deodorant, soap, vitamins, sanitary pads, and toys from the 1900 pounds of supplies that your generosity made possible. Our teachers provided a structured educational experience for hundreds of children. We even showed the love we had for these beautiful people through a foot washing and pedicure service for the women.

You made this all possible. I have posted photos of our activities that you may view.

May God bless all of you,

Dr. Mark Davis
