Title:
Leprosarium, Taegu, ca. 1950.
Description:
"Leprosarium Staff. Here are the ones who try to keep the institution ticking along smoothly. The problems are great, and many, but Philippians 4:19 is just as true today as it was in the time of St. Paul: 'My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory, by Christ Jesus.' Praise be to Him who cares for us. Seated: (left to right) Mr. Kim, pastor; Dr. Moffett, Acting Supt.; Mr. Pai, Asst. Supt. Standing: Mr. Kwun, business manager; errand boy; Mr. Pak, agriculturalist; Mr. Choon, office worker; Mr. Chun, mechanic and truck driver; maintenance helper. These are the only people directly connected to the institution who are not patients. Not a single Korean doctor due to natural reluctance, if not fear, of associating with cases of leprosy. Interns and residents from Taegu Presbyterian Hospital do give valuable assistance for a few hours each week."
