San Miguel, El Salvador, Jan 10 - 18, 2026, w/Dr. Al Halls & Lloyd DeFoor, SR1722
We welcome physicians, dentists, pharmacists, dermatologists, optometrists, ophthalmologists, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, first responders, dental hygienists, dental assistants, physical/occupational therapists, students, servants (non-medical helpers), and a trip photographer/videographer on all of our general medicine and dentistry trips.
Please note all trip participants will have a criminal background check done to ensure the safety of our teams.
Our host, Pastor Job Ageo Diaz and his San Miguel Church (Iglesia Cristiana por la Gracia de Dios) are truly among the most caring and hospitable people, with great servant hearts. The truth is--they spoil our GHO teams! Most impressive is their compassion for their own people and commitment to evangelism and discipleship.
Our clinic weeks are complemented by the bilingual Christian school that Iglesia Cristiana Por la Gracia de Dios church sponsors, which provides us with excellent interpreters who have a heart for evangelism.
The plan is for this team to serve with primary medical care and dental clinics, in assisting the church's church-planting efforts in rural communities outside of San Miguel.
