Let the surgeries begin!!

This morning we went to worship with the Montellano Church of Christ this morning. I walked over about 0950 with some of the babies and their parents. After lunch, the surgeries began.

This Claudia and her son, Bryan, waiting for their surgeries. Both need hernia repairs.

This is Bryan after he came out of surgery. He did very well. His mom and his dad sat with me during the surgery to help pass the time. They live in the area of Xepocol and know our Gaspar. Gaspar has been talking to them about the Bible and this gave us a chance to talk to a little. No matter which country you live it, if you wait until your child is older to teach them of Jesus and how they should live their life, you will meet more resistance.

Kathleen and John Mark praying with patients before they go back for surgery.

Today, 13 surgeries were done. The patients did well and went through recovery without any problems. We are thankful for that and pray that the surgeries will go as well tomorrow.
