Collecting Wheelchairs, Walkers and other Medical Supplies for Missionary's Ministry Continues
Summer 2022 Update: This is the third year our ministry is taking on the challenge of collecting wheelchairs, walkers, and other medical equipment to support the ministry of Pastor John Sullivan in Zihuatanejo, Mexico. Our goal currently is for 50 wheelchairs. We have had tremendous assistance this time, with friends and family pitching in to help acquire the chairs, etc. As of this writing we are 80% there.
Another element of this joint effort is to provide fun-filled backpacks for kids that Pastor John’s ministry serves in orphanages and villages nearby. Melva and her mom, Bonnie, are busy assembling the backpacks now, which will make their way south of the border well in time for Christmas. Last year, 110 backpacks were put together. This year, the numbers will approach 200 as we are adding backpacks for seniors in nursing homes who otherwise might be ignored during the holidays.
And the pastors have requested Spanish Bibles. Lots of them. Study Bibles, children’s Bibles, large print Bibles—you name it. We are honored to be God’s servants to help deliver these to our ministry partners in Mexico.
Original Post: Over the past couple of years, our locally-based ministry has helped to provide wheelchairs, walkers, and other medical supplies to John L. Sullivan ministries in Zihuantanejo, Mexico.
The chairs are provided free to people who are bedridden or otherwise sidelined without a way to get around. Our collection of wheelchairs ends up being transported into Mexico and are put to good use with less fortunate people.
Please join us in helping our neighbors to the south, and, in the process sharing the Gospel — the Good News of Jesus Christ.
We are willing to pick up the chairs on fairly short notice and take care of getting them to those in need.
