Charley in Panajxit

Today was a wonderful day. I met Charley near his hotel and then we met Josefina, Tomas and Gaspar. We drove to Panajxit which is about a 20 minute drive.

Enrique helped us with our clinic today. He always prays with the patients and talks to them about the Bible after they see Josefina. We had 16 patients today. I am continuing to work with Josefina. I enjoy learning from her as she is very patient when she explains things to me.

The photo is of Charley playing around with the guys IN the tree. Yes, he climbed up in the tree and as you can see the little guy to the left finds Charley entertaining.

For lunch we drove cross-county to Enrique's house and had a very good lunch.

After clinic, Charley and I found a bank and then later met for dinner. We were invited to have dinner with Josefina's family. We had tamales, tortillas and coffee. Josefina's mom asked Charley to pray before the meal. Charley led the prayer and paused so Josefina could translate.

We had a enjoyable dinner and conversation. Charley has been able to meet three of Josefina's four brothers. Tomorrow he will spend the day with Juan Diego and then we will all meet for dinner.
