We were lucky on our way to Chutzurob and did not have any problems arriving at the clinic. There were 21 of us and we were in two trucks and a van. The van was not able to make it down the hill so those people had the opportunity for a short hike.
We quickly set up clinic. Everyone pitched in and then we were ready to roll. We gathered outside and welcomed everyone. We asked everyone to be patient and explained that there would be activities for the children. We prayed, thanking God for the clinic and the medicine. We saw 17 medical patients and 25 dental patients.
The group brought different activities for the children and they learned about the fruits of the Spirit. It was a good opportunity for the young people to interact with the children of the community.
Some of the children making bracelets.
Linda helping the children with the bracelets.
These children wanted their photo with Katy.
Abby also helped with the children's activities and translated.
John pitched in helping with the children.
Sebastian always helps us with the clinics in Chutzurob. Here he is with Michaela, Halston, a patient and JoLee. JoLee has been working with HTI for several years and this week translated for the patients.
Sebastian approached me when we arrived about doing a home visit for a lady who is unable to walk. She gave birth several weeks ago and since then has been weak and has needed to stay in bed.
We drove as far as we could and then walked the remainder of the way. The lady had given birth about five weeks ago and he was their eleventh child. Her physical exam was normal but she was severely depressed. We talked with her and her husband for quite a while. Sebastian offered his thoughts since a few years ago one of his daughters had experienced the same situation. We invited her to come to the next clinic and then we prayed with her. We will see what happens.
This is the group as we were packing up the truck.
It was a good day, a good clinic and we had safe travels. We pray for the same tomorrow.
