Challenges
There have been challenges, both
internally and externally.
• Fac琀椀ons in the church have sadly
had their e昀昀ect on our sta昀昀 team.
These s琀椀ll occasionally arise and
threaten to spoil great teamwork.
• A mañana a琀�tude causes progress to be slow. We recently lost
job applicants because nobody got
on with the recruitment process.
• People are content with their lot:
that can be good, but some琀椀mes
causes unwillingness to allow improvements or hospital treatment
that would bene昀椀t people.
• Sustainability is an ongoing concern. Local income amounts to one
salary, but we have three full-琀椀me
sta昀昀.

Prayer
• Leo works alone in Santo Domingo, apart from some voluntary
student support. He needs Chris琀椀an fellowship as his family, other
than his just-teenage daughter, are
not interested.
• Leo needs a co-worker but it is
hard to 昀椀nd people who want to
work in rural se琀�ngs and not city
clinics. Ideally, it would be a woman. Pray the Lord of the harvest to
send workers into this 昀椀eld.
• Sustainability and succession are
concerns. Founder, Myrtle, based
in England, has been grounded for
a year with family responsibili琀椀es
and health issues. She would love
to visit Runaperu again and has an
eye to the future of the project too.
