 "I Had This Dream"

Dr. Eduardo and Claudia Maia

When I was in medical school in Brazil in the year 2000, I had this dream--to be a medical doctor in Africa.

I had heard about Chicuque Rural Hospital in southeastern Mozambique, a Portuguese-speaking country just like my home country of Brazil, and a desire grew in me to go and serve there in medical ministry.

It is 6:15 on a cool Wednesday evening, and people are streaming into Legina Mabunda's garage. Behind the tin door, people are sitting in white plastic lawn chairs and wooden kitchen chairs, and they are packing together tightly on a long bench that runs along one wall. Children cover every inch of a mat spread on the floor. At the end of the room, a small table serves as a podium for tonight's Bible class. A woman is preparing to give a sermon, and the room can't accommodate all those who want to hear.
