Diospi Suyana celebrates the 12th anniversary of the hospital…

… and inaugurates the new operating theatres and the 2nd storey of the Media Centre

When has something like this happened before?  Yesterday the Diospi Suyana staff celebrated three important events at once: that the Hospital Diospi Suyana exists for 12 years and officially opened the two new operating theatres and the Media Centre extension.  On top of that 250 people participated in the yearly company celebration.

The programme that lasted six hours was a mixture of songs, speeches and games.  The missionary doctors John thanked all members of staff most cordially for their hard and successful work over the past dozen years.  The staff members of the building-team, the service department and the cleaning-team were given presents and honorary diplomas.

Strengthened by a hearty lunch the missionaries and staff competed in various sporting activities.  This allowed everyone to tuck into the high-calorie birthday cake with a good conscience!

Headed by Marion Hofmann, Jennifer Frank, Susi Rottler and Dr Martina John many creative people had prepared the event very lovingly.  Everyone who took part agreed that it was a successful party.
