East Texas Baptist University biology pre-med students joined students from Spanish 2311 and 3309 on a recent medical mission trip to Guatemala focused on serving local communities through healthcare, education, and ministry. Led by Associate Dean and Professor of Biology Dr. Roy Darville, Assistant Professor of Spanish Blanca Jenkins, Assistant Professor of Biology Jennifer Hudnall, and Assistant Professor of Nursing Dr. Antay Waters, the team spent the week ministering to patients and families in San Raymundo through hands-on medical care and community outreach.
Throughout the week, ETBU students from multiple academic disciplines worked alongside healthcare professionals at a local hospital, assisting with surgeries, patient care, laboratory procedures, and ministry opportunities while demonstrating Christ-centered servant leadership.
