In May 2021, Riverside International Outreach had an opportunity to travel to Kenya to serve the people of the Masai Mara. This was our first international trip since the COVID-19 pandemic. We joined with Africa Mission Services to provide medical services in their Community Clinic and Birth Center in the western Mara.
Because of the challenges of international travel during the pandemic, a small team of three was mobilized, consisting of Doctors Loe, Munden, and Tran. They brought a large supply of medical equipment to donate to the clinic, including a Zoll cardiac monitor/defibrillator. Besides staffing the clinic, they also provided overnight care and helped women with childbirth. We hope to return to the Masai in the near future with a larger team to provide care to the Maasai villages.
