Saline women roll bandages for Congo leprosy patients
A group of seven Saline United Methodist Church women regularly roll bandages for Dr. Glenn Eschtruth’s mission hospital in Katanga, Congo, sending 20 pound parcels with sterilized supplies and seeking postage help. They began in 1970 after hearing the missionary speak, and have shipped over 300 pounds of hospital items, plus occasional toys and eyeglasses, via international mail.
