During the three days of clinic we saw 820 patients. We pray that the work strengthens The Church and their ministry. We also pray that we demonstrated the love of Christ in our actions.
On Thursday I went with a group to Chutzurob. During our day we saw 46 medical patients, 72 dental patients and had 11 patients for dental cleaning.
We started by welcoming the patients and explaining the process of the day to them. We gathered outside for prayer.
This is Debbie, Linda and John that worked in the pharmacy for the day. Debbie has been down a few times before and so has Linda. This was John's first time visiting Guatemala. He taught us some of Japanese phrases and entertained us with his juggling ability.
This patient wanted her photo taken with Cheryl, who has been down several times to help with clinics. Sebastian is the brother that helped us start this clinic in Chutzurob.
Heidy will soon be finished with dental school. This was her first time working with Health Talents and we hope that she will return to help again. Here she is with the first dental patient of the day.
These smiling people are Jim and Barbara.........a dental team......the annual November clinic would not be complete without them!!
Juan is handing out mouth wash to the dental patients before their appointment.
This mother wanted a photo of her and her son. I will take them a copy of it when we return to Chutzurob for the next clinic.
The ladies of the congregation prepared a meal for us. We enjoyed soup and tamalitos.
We sat on benches as we ate...............we were very thankful for their hospitality.
Tomorrow...............more clinics and more adventure.................
