We are so thankful to St. Thomas More Catholic Church for donating the funds needed to send one of our nuns to school to become a nurse! With almost 100 children in the care of more than 30 nuns at the orphanage, you can imagine the need for someone trained in basic medical care. 
Mother Germaine and the sisters have no car or mode of transportation, so if a child is sick they must hop on the back of a truck and take the hour long trip to the closest clinic. It ends up being almost a full day to be cared for a fever or other illness. After training, Sister will be able to monitor the children and provide over the counter medication as needed (remember most people there cannot read, so giving Tylenol, Ibuprofen or other medication can be precarious).
