Welcome to our website
Clinica Corpus Christi is a medical clinic and a 24 bed hospital and nutritional center for needy children and infants in Patzun, Chimaltenango, Guatemala. The goal of Clinica Corpus Christi is to continue to meet the medical needs of the area; improving the lives of many residents who would not otherwise get medical attention. In many cases this is the difference between life and death.
Sara Merdes-Judd went to Guatemala
25 years ago and saw a need. "I worked with a Franciscan Priest and the
first thing we did was to buy a piece of land to house a nursery for 250
children. Then we went on to build the clinic and the hospital." There is a
full time doctor on staff and many visiting doctors and dentists from the
United States who volunteer their time. Clinica Corpus Christi is not
affiliated with any national or international organization; they saw a need
in Guatemala and began to raise funds. And Sara is an incredible fund
raiser.
