My name is Chantale, and I have been working with the RHFH mission for several years. When I look back at how this chapter of my life began, I am still moved by how quietly — and unexpectedly — everything started.

It was April 2006. I was home when a friend came to visit. She was already working at the mission and had come to tell me that she had found a job opportunity for me. I accepted her invitation and went with her that same day to meet the director. Before I knew it, I was sitting in an interview.

The next morning, a Tuesday, I returned to begin work.

I started in the cleaning department. My responsibilities were straightforward: sweeping, mopping, and keeping all work areas clean — including the corners that required special attention. It was humble work, but I gave it everything I had.

After some time, my role changed. I was given new responsibilities in medication preparation — organizing medicines from their storage boxes, placing them carefully into individual bags, and labeling each package so that patients would receive exactly what they needed. Accuracy mattered deeply in this work. I understood that.

“This job has brought many positive changes to my life. It has helped me become more independent, care for my family, and build a better future.”

What this job gave me is difficult to put into words. Through my earnings, I was able to pay for my children’s education — and I watched them complete their schooling. At the time I started, I did not have a permanent home. But over time, I saved, and I built one. My own house, on my own land. I am grateful to God for His blessings throughout this journey.

People sometimes ask what keeps me committed after so many years. My answer is simple: I truly love my work, because it has transformed my life in meaningful ways. Every morning I arrive, I carry that with me.

For these reasons, I remain fully committed to my responsibilities. I give my best every day — with discipline, with integrity, and with professionalism. That is my promise to the mission, and to the patients we serve together.
