There seems to be an outpouring of compassion and
volunteerism amongst the Yamhill County Dental Community
that is unparalleled. It gives me great joy to network and form
relationships with my colleagues in order to work together to
support the mission of the Love INC Health Care Services. We promote
health and alleviate pain and suffering in the name of Jesus Christ. I am so
very proud of them!

The Health Care Services Ministry provides free
health care services for uninsured adults and
children in our service area. This ministry uses
local doctors, nurses, dentists, dental hygienists,
and other health care professionals who voluntarily
treat patients free of charge. This is made possible
due to generous donations from businesses like
A-dec and Providence Newberg Medical Center.
