We have arrived safely back in La Ceiba after a truly incredible week......We had a wonderful mission - saw around 600 patients. The medical staff was superb!! Landon got broken in right - he has done a wide range of things, from making balloon dogs with the kids to performing minor surgeries many times, from the dump to Ichoteas.
The young guys and Jac have had a ball - Patrick worked with the construction team all week, while the other 3 worked a little bit of everywhere. We managed to spend two afternoons in Plan de Flores in addition to the day we did Clinic there, so the children's ministry was wonderful. We found all of our families healthy and happy - except, of course, for poor Ramon. We saw his Mom and she is, as you can imagine very sad. Keep her in your prayers.
Baby Corley has had a haircut - Baby Jane still does not like me.
Brooke & Jen helped Jennifer Smith in the pharmacy and everyone agrees that it was smoother than ever before. Sharon and Peggy were the rocks that they always are - they saw patients and Shane did triage, while training Brantley to do blood pressure and blood sugars.
Agnes was in charge of vitamins and worm medicines, so she got to see every patient that came through just about. Anna Grace saw patients and did a wonderful job.
Deb and I worked eyeglasses, and I can only tell you that the Guffeys have taken that to an entirely new level. It is incredible to be part of God's work in taking a woman who could not read the top line of the eye chart and seeing her leave reading 20/40.
Jim, Pete,Patrick and Michael worked on the construction - they got the floor down upstairs in the church, got the plumbing in the soup kitchen and nearly completed the computer room - wall, lighting & wiring and tile.
Josh & Brantley worked both medical and construction.
Gregg, Don and Richard have done a bunch here - they were able to come out and see us on Wednesday and spend the night. It was good to see them and good to be back with them in La Ceiba.
We have talked every night about when we saw Jesus and He is everywhere.
Thanks for the prayers - see you on Sunday.
Love, Jane
