fr. john's medical mission

as mentioned previously, my former priest, fr. john appiah, from notre dame high school (who is now at knoxville catholic) is from ghana. the catholic churches at home have been raising money for a medical mission in his home town of nkonya wurupong in the volta region (which is about 3 hours from my site). this is the second year that they have had the medical mission here with doctors, nurses and students coming all the way from tennessee (we're the only 10's you see) to offer their skills. i invited my fellow pcv amber to join in on the medical mission fun! we were able to help register people and take temperatures. a future in the medical field for julie and amber? not likely. but it was great to be a part of the action!
