May / November Trips

Saturday

We travel to Constanza every May and November. There are planning meetings beforehand, so participants can learn about their roles and meet each other. We leave on a Saturday, land in Santiago, and drive to Constanza that afternoon. We stay in a very safe and pleasant hotel named "Hotel Constanza".

Sunday

It's a long day, but spending Sunday in Constanza is a great experience. There is Catholic Mass (optional but recommended) where we first meet the people and show that we have arrived. We then tour the clinic and then we go on home visits, which are invariably pleasant and interesting. Sunday night we have dinner at the convent and then return to the hotel to prep for the Monday clinic.

Monday - Thursday

The work starts on Monday morning. We set up mobile clinics in local schools and see patients all day. Often, we treat up to 200 patients in a day. Then we head back to a local convent for a big dinner and return to the hotel. Clinics run Monday through Thursday.

Friday

On Friday morning, we provide a clinic for the "Hotel Constanza" workers and their families, and then we head for the airport in Santiago to fly home.
