This lady came to our medical clinic that was held in a small remote village deep in the mountains of Tyva. She had such severe pain that she could hardly walk even with the help of her husband. Her family had no medicine for her or even food to eat. The last time she ate was a day before the clinic! They were very grateful for the care they received thru clinic and especially for the Agape Health Kits. At the end of the day they both wanted to know more about the loving God who sent us to help them, and both prayed to receive Jesus. |

Tyva is a very beautiful country. When traveling to different villages we had a chance to enjoy the beauty of nature that surrounded us. The sky is as blue as it gets, and the air has never been inhaled by anyone else since the day it was made; there is no one here! |

Each time the local doctors thanked us for coming and showing such amazing kindness and compassion to the people (something that Russian patients seldom receive) and then they would take our literature home to read and learn about the love of God that they had seen. Dr. Eric is checking a two-year old baby for orthopedic problems. |

Tyvinian girls often wear no hair to the age of six, while the boys wear long hair. This cute child is a boy. |

Our medical clinics are a wonderful model for people who have never heard about the Love of God. When you help them with their physical needs, they are interested in learning why you want to do this. The first thing they ask you is "Why did you come here to help us?" And then, you have a chance to tell them! |

Riding this jeep on a dirt road was like being inside a washing machine. You were tossed, slammed, jerked, squeezed, and jolted. Unfortunately, we never got clean. More Photos...
