The Joint Free Medical-Dental, and Philippine Embassy Consular Outreach Program by the Good Shepherd Filipino Catholic Community and the San Lorenzo Ruiz Community was held on Sunday, August 30,2015 at the Holy Rosary Sister's Convent, Agron Street, Jerusalem. This program is held annually to cater to the medical, dental, and civic needs of the many overseas Filipino workers based here in Jerusalem.

At various stations, those attending can check their blood pressure, sugar levels, urine and consult with a doctor and a dentist. This project is also a way for us, Filipinos, to get ourselves to be aware of whatever changes or new programs our Embassy has to offer, since most of us cannot go to Tel Aviv for our civic needs due to our work conditions.
