– Dr. Helton!
Community Actions
Dr. Helton enjoys volunteering in our community and around the world. She is very active in her church, West Main Baptist, in Danville. Her most recent volunteer opportunity was with her husband, David, daughter, Michelle and son, Cliff. They were part of a 43 member team with the Global Health Outreach program, sponsored by the Christian Medical-Dental Association, to Ometepe, Nicaragua.
Healthcare is scarce on the island, which is home to an active volcano. The people have very few possessions and most do not have electricity or running water. They walk many miles to receive the healthcare that is freely given by the doctors, dentists and healthcare professionals.
On this mission, local pastors ministered to the people while they waited for health care. National interpreters facilitated the communication between the Nicaraguans and the Americans. Dr. Helton provided dental care which included fillings and periodontal cleanings. Her husband, David, filled hundreds of prescriptions for the patients. Michelle is interested in a career in physical therapy and was able to assist the two physical therapists on the team. At age 12, Cliff helped escort patients from the triage area to the appropriate doctor. In the afternoons, he assisted with Bible School.
The Helton family is very thankful to have had the opportunity to serve God and mankind in this family mission.
