The ministries of Selian Lutheran Hospital, Selian Hospice, the Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre (ALMC), The Plaster House and the ALMC School of Nursing touch the bodies, hearts and lives of thousands of people in Tanzania every year. Whether it is fistulae repair (for young women injured in childbirth), treating burns (for toddlers who fall into cooking fires), or correcting cleft palate, club foot, or skeletal fluorosis (which prevents children from running and walking like their peers), these ministries take a holistic approach to restoring physical health and renewing family life.
