One of the things i found great joy in doing was giving away tennis shoes and clothes to some of the most needy people. This lady who is carrying a baby came through with only a pair of worn out flip flops on, which is better than nothing at all, but if you could see the land and remember that they walk everywhere they go, shoes are a great need for them. Even though this woman could not speak English hardly at all, the only thing she kept saying was "God bless you." She was so excited to get these tennis shoes and a new jacket!
Below, Dr. Jones is hard at work :). I was so proud of him and it was so exciting to see him in his first real medical mission work. Each student had to use a translator to ask questions and find out what the problem was. The students were able to gain a lot of valuable experience and knowledge. God is teaching him, and growing him to be a great doctor for His glory!!
There were always children around and a lot of them. They were so excited to get candy from us. Some of them could speak some English, but most could not.
This is the line of people waiting to be seen at the clinic. As you can imagine, it was hard turning people away at the end of each day, but the people were always respectful and kind to us.
