Sister Tracy is a registered mid-wife who has been volunteering at Emthonjeni for many years now. Twice a week, she puts her own kids into childcare and comes to the clinic to see pregnant moms from Zandspruit. About 300 moms-to-be come in every month to get vitamins, education on childcare, HIV/AIDS, healthy living, even domestic abuse.... and of course, to make certain their babies are growing well. Having a clinic right in Zandspruit makes it viable for these moms to actually get to an appointment since catching a taxi to sit in a free clinic downtown will take them a full day. And they aren't always treated nicely in other places. Sister Tracy and Bongi and their staff give everyone the love that every pregnant mom needs. Once they get to be close to full term, Sister Tracy sets an appointment with a clinic in the next town for the moms to be able to deliver at the hospital. One of our biggest needs is for another midwife willing to come in and share the clinic responsibilities with Sister Tracy long term. You can join us in praying for this person to open their hearts to these beautiful women.
