As the last day of our clinic came to an end we were all curious about our total of glasses given and people served, especially after the busy day we had today — and the total for today is 155 people! We were so busy that we had to eat lunch in shifts to keep up with the visitors coming to the clinic. Each day the pastor’ wife and his sister have brought lunch to us at the clinic, so we didn’t have to leave and hurry to return.Today their bringing the meal to us was important to keep people flowing through the stations. What wonderful meals we have had!
After yesterday’s extremely hot and humid and the rainy day, we also welcomed a cooler day today of only 84°. Since we were so busy, it made the work a bit easier.
This week the church here hired a painter to paint the name of the church and Luther’s Rose and the hours of the service on the building. It was fun to watch him work each day freehand drawing with only a level and a ruler.
We ended our three and a half day clinic giving out 500 pairs of glasses and 400 pairs of sunglasses to 371 people.
We have been very grateful for the help of our translators that you see pictured here with our team.
Tomorrow we will go on an outing and then we will all fly home on Saturday.
We ask your continued prayers for safe travels. Please continue to pray for the seeds that were planted this week. Also, pray for the pastor and the church here.
