Day 2...
We continued the medical clinics at Palmar Arriba. It is a beautiful little town, just on the outskirts of Santiago, at the base of a mountain. We saw about 120 people. I had the opportunity to translate for Dr. Russ; I really enjoyed hearing directly from the patients and it gave me a new appreciation for how valuable these types of clinics are!
Our water team had purified 350 gallons of water by noon! They were able to train the folks there in the process- we will repeat the training tomorrow again. Wayne and Lowell also spent some time working in my water trailer and figuring it all out. They have been such a blessing- they have my water supplies organized, all the units set up and ready to go with their "kits" all put together- it will make my work later on this month much easier!
Thanks for keeping us in your prayers- a great week is unfolding. Tomorrow we will return to Palmar to finish up with some patients, finalize the training on the water purifier. The water team will head out to La Canela to do some troubleshooting and bring Buck's plywood design to Simon, and then work on the trailer. Tomorrow night, we will be participating in the Wednesday night service at Apocalypsis- the mother church of the new churches we are working at this week. Thanks for remembering us in your prayers!!
