June 19, 2026 · 26 min

Right now, a Samaritan's Purse Disaster Assistance Response Team is on the ground in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, operating two Ebola Treatment Centers to help fight this dangerous disease and stop its spread. Kristy took part in an infectious disease response training alongside our DART members, where she put on the personal protective equipment our teams wear in the field. It changed her. Hear Kristy’s thoughts as she gets in the suit and from our staff as they share why they are willing to say yes to serving in the DRC. Resources:Learn more about the DRC Ebola Response.Serve with our Disaster Assistance Response Team.Listen to our episodes about the 2014 Ebola Response in Liberia.Remembering the Liberia Ebola Response: 10 Years LaterBearing Each Other's Burdens: Liberia Ebola Response Part 2
