"To serve without any expectation of recompense is
to be blessed. May God continue to bless Dorcas
Medical Missions in providing access to health care
ESPECIALLY oral health care to those who would
otherwise go without." Dr. Fabiola Milord
"Each time I go on a mission I come back on a high
note despite the challenges. It is always so
satisfying and rewarding. ..... Oh how much we take
for granted. I will always continue to count my
blessings, trust in God and be thankful to Him to
continue to supply all my needs as He has been
doing. I've also proven that if you take care of God's
business, He will take care of yours. Thanks to
Reverend Lorna Mullings for her vision as it has
enabled me to actualize some of my dreams."
Janis McPherson-Miller, MSN,RN, Deputy Director
of Nursing Operations, SUNY Downstate Medical
Center
"I always go on the missions with an open heart and
willingness to serve with the mission's mission
statement in mind. He would give to the poor, lends
to the lord, and the Lord will repay that loan back to
me. 3 yrs ago on a mission to Ghana, I left for
Ghana the same day my husband was having his
last treatment for an illness we were fighting privately
. With mixed feelings and emotions , thinking that I
should be there with him as I have been the previous
5 wk's of daily treatment not missing a day, I prayed
about my decision to embark on this mission not
knowing if I had made the right decision or not. I left
the morning and privately stuck a postcard under
the pillow where my husband laid his head,
apologizing to my husband for leaving, and assuring
him that even though I will not be there with him
physically , I would be there with him in the Spirit,
Half way through the flight to Ghana the Lord
revealed to me that " this day He will magnify me in
the sight of all people, that they may know that as He
was with the prophets , so He will be with me and my
husband. I was delivered and released to continue
my journey. I must report to you that the good Lord
of Israel, the God of Jacob healed my husband
totally, no signs of that illness. Thanks be to God.
And yes a million thanks to Bishop Sidley and Lorna
Mullings who has allowed me to be myself and to
humbly serve under their vision." Pamela Gutzmore,
RN
"For some reason on this mission I felt as if I was in a
daze.I was there but yet could not believe that I was
actually there. Seeing my African brothers and
sisters in all their glorious colours reflecting the
beauty of the sunshine in their richly coloured fabric.
Observing the babies sleep peacefully their legs
straddling the backs of their mothers or sisters who
were dancing to the sounds of folk music with not a
care in the world. Even at this point I still cannot
believe that I actually was physically there. It all
seemed so surreal. What I did learn however was
the reason for some of the physical scars. Most
related to lack of knowledge of basic medical
conditions. It will take perhaps one or two
generations for knowledge to replace these
practices. It is my hope that through the
establishment of a health care facility that these
people will experience some change in health
perception. It was wonderful too that even though
most of us did not witness directly, that the Lord was
able to use each of us in our respective roles to
draw the people so that they could be exposed to
the good news of Jesus Christ.
May the Lord bless us richly and give us a double
portion of protection for us and our families, in Jesus
name." Dr. Bradley Edwards, Senior Medical Officer
The May Pen Hospital
"Every time I am on one of the missions I tend
to link something I need changing in my life to
the service I offer while in the field. This year I
linked the healing needed by my aunt and
some other situations in my business. I must
report in both instances God is delivering in
ways I know only he could.... I am seeing the
signs of returns in excess of 100 fold... Mark
10:29-30. Many thanks to our leader Rev.
Lorna Mullings for the opportunity to serve
under her vision." Rev Colin M Vickerie
"This is the first time I have been on any
mission. It has been an encouraging
experience indeed as the Mission opened my
eyes to see the reality of the need to be a
"brother's keeper" according to the teachings
of Christ. The benevolence of Dorcas Medical
Mission has been a heartfelt one, the members
haven shown tremendous enthusiasm." Dr.
Richard Bruce-Kotey, Jamaica
