One of my favorite parts of the day is when we welcome the patients to the clinic and pray with them before we begin. Manuel spoke for a few minutes about the services that are available and then we prayed. This is the last clinic for the ACU team and the week has gone very quickly.
Conner and Kelli worked the pharmacy area.........explaining the medicines and collecting the money. It can get a little difficult because widows and ABC children do not pay and no one pays more than Q25. If a patient can not pay at all and the members of the church verify it, then it is written off as a gift.
About 2pm we took a short break and the family of the house provided lunch for us. We had chicken, carrot salad, cucumbers, tamalitos and a melon drink. I do not see Julie in any of these photos.......where is she???????
Shevaun sterilized dental equipment for the day. We had 26 dental patients, 40 medical patients and 5 patients for dental cleaning.
We all drove back to Clinica Caris to empty or reload the trucks as needed. The team will leave early in the morning for Antigua, where they will spend the night before flying home on Saturday. We pray that they have a safe flight and their classes go well when they return.
Tomorrow Juan, Gaspar and I will go to Choacaman IV for clinic.

Sheri are you hinting that I didn't eat the lunch they provided? I'm astonished! Me not eat chicken?!
