MOMENT FOR MISSION - Sunday August 2
Promoting health in India
Presbyterians Sharing supports Michelle Verwey, a nurse serving with the CNI Central Regional Board of Health Services and the MIBE Graduate School for Nurses in Indore.  Michelle is working as an advisor for the PWS&D-supported community health program in five different regions in Madhya Pradesh. She also works with the MIBE faculty in planning and organizing learning activities for the nursing students. Although she is based in Canada, Michelle makes regular trips to India for an average of four weeks at a time.  Michelle previously served as a volunteer intern at the Graduate school for Nurses in 2010-2011 and in 2012-2013.  She is excited to work once again at the school and to share her skills in project monitoring and evaluation with the community health leaders of the CRBHS project.
