A note from Dick McCreight, coordinator:
What a crew! You guys are amazing. The Ramos campus looks fantastic and we got it done in record time with minimal rain. Words can't express how much I appreciate each and every one of you for coming out to make a difference for the Ramos kids.
Looking forward to next year!

A note from Dick McCreight with an update about our friends in Liberia
What a heartwarming story of God at work. In July a team of Asbury United Methodist Church members came together to pack medical supplies for Healthy Women, Health Liberia that were donated by Through These Hands. Those supplies have arrived safely in Liberia and are being distributed by our Community Health Workers in the Margibi County villages we serve. We just received these pictures of a remarkable man who was the recipient of one of the wheelchairs. As you can see, he does not have use of his legs and propels himself using flip-flops on his hands. Here he is receiving his wheelchair. That smile says it all. God is so good! What an honor it is to be a small part of this ministry changing lives in Liberia.
