Review

I spent a week in El Salvador with FIMRC and not only experienced the medical need there, but discovered a whole, exciting, and fascinating cultural world. FIMRC facilitated complete immersion into this!

Our days were spent working in the medical clinic at making house calls around the community of Las Delicias. After a long days work, we had several trips available to us (Geological sites, recreational sites, food, dancing, etc). I think this is so critical to any mission work. It's not only about the medical aid, but the experience of walking in another persons shoes and learning how they live. It greatly opened my eyes to so many social issues and is something every person should experience no matter who you are or what you do.

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
