Upon our arrival to a village in San Pedro, our team was met with a challenge- a tiny church, half the size of yesterday’s, which left us wondering how we could fit all our stations and supplies. With the grace of God, the team was able to work together to make the best use of a small space. Despite the heat, it was beautiful watching all the volunteers from different backgrounds work towards the same common goal of letting God work through us to help as many patients as we can physically and spiritually. The team provided care to church and community members by listening to worries and treating them. It was a joy to watch the smile on the patients’ faces when we ask to pray for them at the end of each visit, and seeing how much a simple act means to them. Another thing that stood out to me today is that when a patient experienced an emergency down the road, part of our team was quick to run over and provide help with no hesitation, not leaving until ensuring the patient is taken care of. I’m grateful and humbled seeing what God has in store for us each day and how He can use us and push us to provide for others.
