Association of Bible Churches staged its one-week community dental outreach from last Monday March 11. The programme ended on Friday at the Overwinning Bible Church, Overwinning Greater New Amsterdam Berbice.
Founder and president of the association, Pastor Andy Girwarnauth, said that more than 100 persons received dental care every day over the five days. The medical team comprised 31 volunteers from the US.
Pastor Girwarnauth added that he is reaching out to his fellow Berbicians in the name of the Lord and for the love of persons.
The association would bring a medical team twice yearly to offer ophthalmology and dental care but uses a different venue at every commencement. According to Pastor Girwarnauth there are seventeen bible churches across East and West Berbice.
He said that he has never faced any challenges with the authorities or ministries in getting his team here to Guyana. And he commended the government for its timely response.
He said that the expense of getting the team here along with medicines and materials are all at the Association’s expense.
Overwinning Bible Church covers the Region six area which is home to the New Amsterdam Public Hospital. Doctors and nurses from the hospital were seen accessing this very compatible service of the US medical team.
Persons also traveled from Region Five to get dental care. Pastor Girwarnauth said there were also persons from Georgetown.
The dental care included cleaning of teeth, flossing, polishing, filling, and extraction. Scores of persons could be seen at the church gate from 05:00 hrs every morning as the word got around.
