Happy New Year, dear supporters!
Mercy In Action started a new birth center in 2024 in Olongapo, on Luzon island, and continues to support two birth centers on Leyte and Samar islands. We also continued jail ministry to pregnant inmates and started doing prenatal exams on the landfill, where many of our patients live and work. We also continued visiting all the babies until their second birthday.
Jayden Benoit, who served as our intern this year, created a mini-documentary for us, traveling to and spending time in all the communities we serve in the Philippines. We so appreciate Jayden sharing his talent and heart for the poor with all of us. We would like to give this video to you as a thank-you gift, and a visual report of some of our activities and outreach this year. Enjoy!

You are an important part of everything we do; we could not do it without our donors, so thank you on behalf of the families we serve. We are looking forward to more of the same in 2025, with many more opportunities to help women with pregnancy check-ups, labor and delivery, postpartum care, and newborn follow-up in our First 1,000 Days program. Thanks for being part of our team.
Love,
Vicki for the Mercy In Action team
