From Guatemala with Love… and one kidney :)

Hola from Sumpango everyone!  I haven’t had a chance to blog yet so I figured I should just to let Mom and Dad know that I’m still alive and still have the same amount of kidneys that I came down with.  As far as the clinic is going, we’re very pleased and grateful for what a great team God has brought together to be here.  It is truly amazing to see so many medical professionals from different places with different backgrounds working together for a common goal.  This is what the body of Christ is supposed to look like.  Though our numbers have remained the same as in past years we’re running so smoothly that it feels slow at times.
I’m especially proud of the optical team which I get to work with during the clinic.  Half of our team doesn’t speak Spanish and none of us have any formal training with Optomology but we’re doing the best we can and from what I can tell, things are going very well.  Though not everyone needs glasses, everyone wants to come pay us a visit (I like to think it’s cuz they want just want to see me but the doctors assure me otherwise J)
Our times of worship have been very cool and as always I get the honor of leading us every morning and night into the presence of our Lord both to be filled up so that we might pour out His love during the day and so that we might praise Him for all He’s doing and all He’s going to do.  Please continue to pray for us!  Ohp- gotta go.  Optical needs me.  HASTA LUEGO!
