Matthew 28: 19-20

Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Matthew 28:19-20

2nd week - clinic at Nicaragua


Tuesday (6/9) clinic 2015 at Nicaragua which is a part of Jutiapa (this is a remote village in Honduras)

On Tuesday we went to a small village again.  We ministered to 64 people and gave out 27 prescription glasses.  Jeff said a couple of young ladies said they did not want to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior at this time.  They need to be prayed for.  He said a total of 8-10 people were saved. One more for Jesus!   The weather has changed since we have been here. It hasn’t rained as much and the weather has been warmer.  We have actually seen some sunshine today.

We saw a lot more cataracts today than usual.  Some patient’s visual acuity was very difficult to read with the autorefractor but we were able to get glasses for all of them.  We had some teenagers who live in La Ceiba that came with us and worked with us today.  They did an amazing job in each of the stations they worked in and it was a joy to have them on the team.

This will be our last day of clinics.  Tomorrow we will work in the bodega to get everything organized for next year. Thursday we will fly home.

Thank you to everyone who prayed for our team (our prayer warriors/rope holders).  We felt you lifting us up through this whole mission trip. I want to say a special thank you to those who prayed for me today.  I have been sick for the last few days and I got really sick last night.  I am praying it isn’t a parasite like I got 2 years ago.  I am feeling somewhat better now and was able to work all day today.  I felt that I had so much coming at me this week.  God has brought me through so much and I praise Him every day for how He has lifted me up and carried me through and made me stronger. One thing I regret is I didn't give out more hugs.

I can’t wait to see what next year will bring and how God will choose to use us again.

Es una cosa de Dios!  It’s a God thing!
