These teams typically include doctors, nurses, surgeons, eye specialists, and evangelism teams.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"372\" data-end=\"692\">They travel to remote communities in the jungles and mountains of Peru, responding to local needs. Medical teams address physical health through consultations, distribution of medicine, and providing eyeglasses. Meanwhile, evangelism teams share the Good News of Jesus Christ with children and adults waiting to be seen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"694\" data-end=\"824\">These communities are deeply grateful for any medical care they receive, as many have limited or no access to healthcare services. Runa Simi also provides basic medicines to churches in the form of first aid kits when donations are received.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery
