Our First Medical Clinic

We went to the village of Mirasolitos today and saw 148 people in the medical clinic. When people arrive, they registered and then they heard testimonies from the team, bible stories, and the gospel was presented by Elias (a pastor from the village of Otuta). Then they went through triage where blood pressures and weights were recorded. They saw the doctor and then prescriptions were filled. We also gave all the children coloring pages and crayons. I am always amazed how such a small thing as crayons brings joy to these children. They are so beautiful. The most beautiful thing I saw today was our team members praying for the people and showing God's love. I saw team members praying while in triage, with the doctor, while they were waiting in line, and after they had received their medication. I pray that each person treated today left knowing they are loved by the Lord! We will post more pictures tomorrow afternoon. All team members are healthy and we have had beautiful weather. Thank you for your prayers!
