weeks ago, I was invited to be a part of a holistic women\u2019s health week. \u00a0It was a week of partnership, in the truest sense. \u00a0Local IPEE churches, Covenant missionaries from the US and Sweden, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.santiagopartnership.org\/\">Santiago Partnership<\/a>, friends visiting from the US and Canada and leadership from the National Women\u2019s Ministry of IPEE all came together to serve together and pull off this event that served the communities of San Gabriel and Punguwahku.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Spearheading the event was our colleague and friend, <a href=\"https:\/\/annaleaswanderings.wordpress.com\/\">Annalea Egging<\/a>, who since arriving last February has longed to create more safe spaces for women to be cared for. \u00a0After months of dreaming and discussing and planning, she pulled together a stellar team of women to serve and partner alongside these communities in the north of the country. \u00a0Medical care, dental care, counselling, access to a pharmacy and workshops on women\u2019s health issues were all a part of the package for women who came to the clinic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The woman were given access to very affordable care and, due to generous donations from supporting churches, were able to walk away with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.daysforgirls.org\/\">Days for Girls<\/a> bag filled with reusable feminine products and personal hygiene products.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_740\" style=\"width: 686px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
