In light of the recent local protests, all of us working at
Diospi Suyana hospital have been encouraged by the support that has
subsequently rallied by the good people of Curahuasi. Much prayer went into this and so we see the pendulum swing back. It is clear more are for us than against us! Accordingly, here is an article covering
this by Dr Klaus John on Tuesday, (albeit with a couple of editorial changes by
me to better clarify);

| An expression of solidarity in front of the missionary hospital’s gates. |
After the most recent defamatory statement and local protests
stemming from the health centre (Centro de Salud), Curahuasi’s inhabitants have
taken a clear stand yesterday morning in a demonstration formed on the Plaza de
Armas which then marched the 1.5 kilometres to the Diospi Suyana hospital’s
gates. The Mayor joined in the march
thus showing his support for our work.
By means of a megaphone, Dr Martina John spoke to the crowd (and yet
again proved her public speaking qualities).
Elsewhere other Curahuasinos were eagerly collecting
signatures in support thankfulness for our 11 years of missionary service.

| A commission from a local institute visited us yesterday, Monday to say: “We and our pupils back Diospi Suyana unanimously!” |
