Medical Clinic

Jesus said..."It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick." (Luke 5:31-32)

The clinic is a "FREE MEDICAL CLINIC" provides all medical services and care without charge to individuals unable to pay for it. All funds that are given or raised are only used to pay for the improvement, expanding of the facility and services. Funds are used for overhead expenses of operating the clinic. All medical professionals provide medical services for free.

Pastor Garcia was selected by "The Daily Journal" newspaper as "Citizen of the Year" for 2011.
