Deworming Day

Yesterday an activity took place that involved two of my team's ministry areas: Christian education and health.  Three women from the Parot Church Health Group did some teaching on intestinal worms (a common problem here) at Cush Christian School and then gave de-worming medicine to the students.


The three health group ladies are at the front on the left. They took turns with the teaching, which covered topics like what intestinal worms are like, how we get them, the effects they have on our bodies and how can we prevent getting them.


After the teaching kids came in groups to get their hands washed (on the right), then went on to get the worm pills (on the left).
