Welcome back to our column,
Wow. Our days of clinic have come to an end. We truly cannot believe how fast the week has come and gone. We’ve been so blessed to apply our knowledge throughout the week and physically help these people of the DR. Today proved our growing confidence this week as all of the students started faithfully making decisions and doing precise injections, exquisite extractions, and peaceful cleanings. The special story from today is just the cohesiveness and calmness of the clinic today with everyone working in unity and selflessness. Over the week it has been incredible to watch this special group of people not only grow closer together, but also grow in their faith. It’s a beautiful thing to see so many people care for each other and come together to care for other communities. Today’s clinic was short, and we ended the afternoon early. This gave us the opportunity to pray over the pastor and his family of the church we were in today. It was evident that God has been moving in that community, and we prayed for continued blessings upon them. We are so grateful for this week, these people, these opportunities, and mainly for the Lord providing in so many ways and remaining faithful throughout many circumstances. We hope you’ve enjoyed the day-by-day details, but wanted to use today’s blog to speak about the way God has changed us this week. We are hopeful for a continuation of this faith when we get back to Birmingham. Now, for some comedic relief…we feel like we’ve only been mentioning Catch Phrase, which feels discriminatory towards the other games that have been a hit, including the legendary Qwirkle and Nertz. These games can get pretty heated (maybe not as much as a monopoly game), but we still try to keep it friendly when we Qwirkle. Alas, tomorrow we are headed to Catalina Island: BEACH DAY. After an entire week of tough work, we are being rewarded by a relaxing field trip to the bluest waters you could ever imagine. Stay tuned for the many, many pictures of resort-like beaches and specifically delicious pineapple drinks. Over and out for today, Halle and Sarah Jordan
