MED 4 OUR WORLD MISSIONS THAT PAVED THE WAY

Over the span of a decade, Med 4 Our World created the infrastructure of our OB/GYN missions to Fiji and successfully completed 247 surgeries. Their accomplishments have allowed us to continue the journey to serve. It’s our honor to share moments from those pioneering mission trips.
