Imo: A group offers 270 impoverished people in Imo community free medical care.
To celebrate Easter, a group of Christian preachers called Gospel Generals International has provided free medical care to around 270 impoverished people in Naze, Owerri North Local Government Area, Imo State.
The organization conducted a free medical outreach in Owerri on Tuesday, during which it provided the services.
According to South-East PUNCH, outreach recipients received free blood and sugar level tests, heart rate tests, diabetes screenings, and eye exams.
According to Mr. Patrick Endurance, one of the outreach’s organizers, the recipients had expert medical examinations before to receiving medication.
The group’s primary goal, according to priest Endurance, is to spread the gospel of hope and provide the despairing hope by both speech and deed.
He mentioned that the outreach, a yearly tradition of the club, was often planned around Easter celebrations to raise awareness of the importance of the holiday and the imperative of leading virtuous, healthy lifestyles.
According to him, the church has been providing relief to the underprivileged throughout East and Southeast Asia, particularly in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Somalia, and Rwanda.
Nonetheless, he expressed gratitude to the non-governmental Paul Iwuala Foundation for helping with logistics and other aspects of the free eye care services.
“This year, we have the honor of collaborating with Pastor Paul Iwulo’s Foundation in Imo State, who has taken it upon himself to guarantee that our community receives medical care,” he stated.
“We provide free medication and skill development alongside our message of love and hope for the people.” Our dedication lies in providing community service to help them overcome poverty and lead healthy lives.
He urged on well to do folks to firmly provide humanitarian assistance to the destitute to allow them relieve hardship, sickness and disease, saying that the society will experience development of peace and good heath when everyone is economically and socially empowered.
Joy Nze, a beneficiary and native of the Naze village, said that they were not required to pay for the prescription or medical exams.
She prayed to God to provide the means for the organizers to continue the altruistic act and praised them for their efforts.
