Day two of clinics and my bug bites from yesterday are bigger and redder and they ITCH like crazy! Let me tell you, my bug spray is not powerful enough for the bugs here. I don’t know where they come from! I am going to have to look into something to keep them off my sweetness!
It seems like this year I have been battling more anxiety and frustration. Today, we ran out of medication labels. We were able to make some with the post-its I brought, but not sure what we will do for the last 2 clinics! BUT, I feel like I am learning and becoming a leader with the clinics. I think to myself, “well I guess since this is year two, I am in it for life.” This scares the crap out of me! I just know that our mission will become bigger and God will make it better. I saw a 90 yo man today. His health wasn’t too bad, but to be 90 and to walk to our clinic is amazing. I also saw a lady from the place we were at yesterday. She walked 2 hours to get to our clinic because she couldn’t make the one yesterday. She wasn’t young, but she needed to be seen. I am glad she made the trip. We were able to witness to her and pray over her.
We showed the Jesus film tonight where we are staying. I got to babysit one of the babies, so her mom could watch the movie. It was awesome. It is so different here. The people are so inviting and just welcome you.
Erin said she would like to return. I would like that too. I feel like I am giving her something that my dad has given me, a passion to help others. Dad couldn’t come this year, and I miss him not being with us. But, I am able to talk with him on the phone and send him pictures. It is hard for the hubs to have me gone too. I have to say it doesn’t get any easier leaving him to come here. He understands why I go and supports me, but it doesn’t make it easier.
Bendiciones,
