Harding meets Patzite

Today is the first clinic in Patzite and it is a beautiful area. We will see how clinic goes and if the congregation is interested in having us return.

One reason I like working with the Dunhams so much is they do not shrink back from work. Kemmel sets the example. All of the equipment has to make it up hill and this blue chest is full of cokes and drinks!

Wondering what is so heavy in this container??? It is the dental equipment.

After running up the hill a few times with the equipment......................hmmmmm, wonder what our carotid pulse is????

This photo was taken after the crew had recuperated from carrying everything up hill and now they are ready to begin their work for the day.

The congregation was nice to prepare lunch for us. We enjoyed chow mien, tortillas and horchata. That basket in the front is filled with tortillas!

Some children wanted their photo taken as we were packing up for the day. Notice the young boy that has learned to wave at the camera.

This was the dental crew for the day :)

It was a very productive day. We ended up with 27 medical patients, 21 dental patients and 1 patient for dental cleaning. The most exciting news of the day is that the congregation wants us to return every month for a clinic.

We hope that as we continue to work with the congregation with dental clinics, it will give them an opportunity to provide teaching within their community and lead people to Christ That is what it is all about!

Tomorrow, we will be in areas of Mactzul VI and Chinique..................another day and more adventures!!
