Good works

I’m going to put my mouth where my money is.

We’re investigating opportunities to go help out the critically under-served (and no, this doesn’t involve volunteering at a really busy bar). Turns out that having an Ob/GYN along opens all sorts of doors. Everyone needs redmed‘s skill set. I’m convinced that I can make myself useful somehow. So far the requirements we’ve figured out:

• Short-ish duration. We want to start with a week or so.
• We want to follow the State Department’s advice in terms of not going places where we’ll get killed or abducted.
• The program can’t require me to provide Christian ministry. I’m all good with being in a group of Christians, and with being part of a team that includes ministers and does ministry work. They just need to be able to accept that I’m not there to pray, preach, or convert. I’ll swing a hammer, but I don’t preach their gospel.

Suggestions?
