Mercy Medical Center

Olivia and Brian Dungog serve as missionaries in Davao City, Philippines. Olivia serves as a midwife at a birth center called Mercy Maternity Center, a charity birthing clinic that serves underprivileged and needy families in the downtown and greater Davao area. Mercy offers Christ-centered maternity care to pregnant women including prenatal visits, labor support, delivery, and postpartum care. The clinic also offers various prenatal outreaches to impoverished neighborhoods, as well as Pap smears, gram stains, family planning, laboratory and ultrasound services. Midwives and Filipina social workers team up together to offer home visits to women who are struggling with special and difficult circumstances, as well as compassionate support through listening and sharing the hope that is found in Jesus Christ.

Mercy is also a clinical site for Newlife International School of Midwifery, a unique Christian overseas midwifery program that seeks to train North American students to serve as missionary midwives in a cross-cultural setting. Olivia works as a clinical preceptor for the foreign midwifery students, as well as an adjunct instructor of midwifery courses. She also assists with mentoring aspiring future missionary midwives and helping with the missions training side of the program. The Dungogs have one son, Malakai, who loves to play and charms everyone with his bright smiles. They are expecting their second child in December 2025. Brian helps to support the work at Mercy Maternity by helping with various construction and remodeling projects at the clinic, as well as caring for Malakai while Olivia is at work. He also works as a dive guide with a local scuba diving company when he is able, and has many opportunities to shine the love of Christ to the boat crews and divers that he works with.
