PAACS

PAACS is an abbreviation for the Pan-African Academy of Christian Surgeons with a focus on education. Tenwek is an educational mission hospital and is a member of PAACS. You can find more information at the web site: http://www.cmda.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=PAACS

One of the "projects" has been the preparation of a series obstetric lectures that will be part of a PAACS curriculum. Bringing and giving these lectures is an experiment in education since the context of care is very different than the assumptions of the authors.

The prayer request is that educational impact of these lectures will equip those dedicated Christian surgeons and students to bring healing and relieve suffering. Pray that the learners and teachers will be a witness to their common love of the Great Physician who is the author of the healing mission of the church and the One who is with us in our suffering.
