The Medical Mission had become a staple in St. Francis Square Group’s annual to-do list as an act of gratitude and to share the blessing they are continuously receiving every year. Also, by committing to its social responsibility, more medical missions will be done in the upcoming years to help improve the lives of the less privileged.
