You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

Africa 2010
As we are all aware, Africa is a war-torn continent with many needs. Amongst the various organizations that provide help for these people, there is a local faction from White Rock that does what it can. For general information, visit www.swam.ca.
Each year, the folks from White Rock put together a team to provide medical services to a particular area in Africa. In 2010 this team will be serving a community near Paynesville in the country of Liberia. For most, this is the only time they will see a doctor in that year. For specific information on this area, visit www.tlpministries.org.
In mid March of 2010 Dr. Jen will have the privilege of joining the team that is going to Liberia. A caring team of doctors, nurses and various volunteers will come together to provide whatever care is needed - from sutures to medication to feeding malnourished babies.
To assist with the expenses and to keep the home fires burning Dr. Jen will be holding a fundraiser:
