4000 get food and water from the hospital

sh. Today we had a hard job at the Rhein-Valley Hospital in Ksasambara. Around 4000 people got their food and water. The whole hospital staff was occupied all day. At 5:30 pm the last family was served. Some additional helpers took care of the registration of the refugees. If you are not here you cannot believe the current situation and feelings. Again a day has passed without a real hope at the horizon. We are all tired. Not because of the hard work but because of what we watch. We can only partially help the people in distress.
