Group meets Xeopcol

This morning, we enjoyed breakfast at the hotel and went in three different directions.  Lisa took a group to Caris, Ruben went to Las Cuevas with a group and some of us went to Xepocol.

We had a combination of regular clinic and also ABC Children.

Andrew seeing ABC Children and Danny helping with the translation.  We saw 30 ABC Children.

This is Sarah and she lives in El Salvador.  She is a physician and is here helping us with clinics this week. 

This is Dr. Jim and Julie.  Tomasa is also helping in the background.

This is Susan and Dave, and they worked with dental today.  This is their first time to Guatemala but have been working with short-term missions for a long time. They live in Chattanooga, TN.

This is Manuel and he had dental cleanings today.

These two brothers are in the ABC Program and want to be nurses.

This is Emilio.  He is one of my ABC Children.

This is Sandra and she told me today that she just received a scholarship to continue to study. She wants to be a teacher.

It was a good day with the 30 ABC Children, 13 medical patients, 20 dental patients and 5 for dental cleaning.

When we returned to the hotel for dinner, the group from Las Cuevas had not returned.  We expected them to be a little later but was getting concerned.  Sandra called and said they had a flat tire......what a bummer!!!  We are just thankful that everyone is ok.

Tomorrow, another day and many more adventures!!!
