Summer 2015

I'm convinced this has been my best summer of ministry

me, Ashlee (intern), Helena (volunteer)

It's crazy we only have two weeks left of teams and have just finished our tenth week of summer ministry!!  

*10 weeks of starting every morning in devotion with 9-11 people (4 participants, 1-2 interns, a 

volunteer, 2-3 assistants)

*10 weeks of participants walking alongside my patients

*10 weeks of participants helping me carry medicine, set up clinics

*10 weeks of census taking

*10 weeks of brochure making (investigating commonly found community illnesses and researching, translating and incorporating that information into an easily understood patient pamphlet)

*10 weeks of patients spoiling us with delicious lunches

*10 weeks of cross-cultural learning, prayer and community development

*10 weeks of discovering a calling to medicine and going deeper in following Christ

I have been absolutely amazed by God's provision and answer to prayer requests before I've even made them.  We have had nurses, pharmaceutical workers, engineers, pre-med students and participants that are just overly open to learning, sharing and jumping in wherever needed.  I know come September I'm going to feel quite bare as I head into the communities alone with my two Dominican assistants.

Thank you to everyone who has blessed my site abundantly with prayer, donations and love this summer!!
