We arrived in Chocaman IV, parked the truck and honked the horn. Shortly, six men arrived to help us carry our equipment. We walked through the corn fields to a church building and a house. The patients were waiting for us on the patio.We prepared quickly for clinic and welcomed the patients. Gaspar read from Isaiah 38 about Hezekiah who was told he would die. He prayed to the Lord and 15 years was added to his life. Today we pray to the same Lord who is just as able to answer our prayers and give us more than we can dream of.
We saw 14 patients today. The room was decorated with drawings and colorings of children. Can you translate the first picture?
These are my three new friends. After lunch we played on the patio and then they wanted to help us carry our equipment back to the truck. They are very good back pack carriers!
This pair of shoes has seen some difficult work in the fields.
As we were packing up it began to rain. This chicken was smart enough to stay out of the rain! He just hugged the inside of the doorway of the building.
Tomorrow I study in Panajachal and then travel with Lisa and Kemmel to Clinica Ezell. We will be there a few days and then return for our clinics.
