calimesa 2015 - the fifth year!

This week Paya Bay once again hosts a medical mission. A mission that's the admirable, herculean effort of a group of kind, generous people from Calimesa, California. This is the Calimesa group's fifth! year providing free medical and dental services to less fortunate residents of island communities near the resort. For many islanders, this yearly mission represents a rare opportunity to access quality health and dental care. The dentists stay particularly busy, assisting hundreds of patients over four working days. The American professionals perform extractions, fillings, and even root canals! This mission of altruism and love is generously supported by the Calimesa Seventh Day Adventist Church. I think I speak for all Roatanians in expressing heart-felt gratitude for the solidarity, kindness, and goodwill that are the essence of this international outreach program. Muchisimas gracias, Calimesa SDA!
