Today, I’m talking to a medical missionary by the name of Dr. Alberto Denis.  Born in Panama to an indigenous family, Alberto moved to Panama City and studied medicine.  A friend helped him become a Christian in his fourth year of med school. After serving his country for two years, he moved back to his indigenous homeland and served the poor by going from island to island healing, helping and delivering babies.  With little knowledge of English, he applied for the ReviveEE program and learned conversational English in three months.  He served in Romania and now lives in Moldova where he is learning Romanian.  He has plans to return to medical school in Madrid, Spain and then lead a life as a medical missionary wherever Jesus calls him.   

 

More About Dr. Alberto Denis:

Alberto Denis is part of the Guna Yala indigenous community in Panama and raised in a small town in Panama City. He studied medicine for 7 years, and became a disciple when he was in his 4th year in college. After finishing med school, Alberto worked as a doctor for his people for about 1 year, traveling from different islands to deliver medicine, and sometimes babies. After this work, he decided to be part of RevivEE and become a full time missionary in Eastern Europe. He likes to learn new languages and serve in any possible way. Now He is living in Moldova helping the local church in the campus ministry.
