The morning started off with the team enjoying
an amazing breakfast by Mrs. Stensaas! We were very excited to start
our second clinic day at the orphanage. It was an hour long drive to
the village of Kytorea; however the drive was much nicer and smoother
than the other roads we have been traveling. To start off the day, two
of the nurses, Janelle and Kristi, were able to see fifty of the children
that live at the orphanage where we held our clinic. The team was greeted
by all the orphans with “good morning sir” which started
our day with a big smile. Another cute thing was whenever one of our
team member pulled out a camera or candy, the children would swarm to
them. The line started forming before we got there, but we did not see
patients until 8:45am when we were all set up in our positions. In spite
of the rain, we were able to see two hundred patients not including
the fifty orphans we saw. The clinic did go faster today because we
already had experience in the positions we had. We wrapped up our day
singing with and teaching the orphans some of our favorite Bible songs.
Pastor Jan told us in devotions that we need
to look at their feet with every individual that comes to these clinics
and be willing to serve them no matter what. Our team has learned and
sought that this week already. This village we had our clinic in today
had a reputation of having much witchcraft. We were in deep prayer that
God would open their hearts to His Word today. Services were held throughout
the day but as we are typing this we do not know how many received Christ
as their Savior. The Lord has definitely been the One giving us strength
when we didn’t think we could have any. Tomorrow looks like it
will be another busy and exciting day in the next village of Mbira!
Thanks again for all your prayers!
