from Lisa G


So…..I’m here.  12 hours of travel time.  I found that I spent most of the trip praying.  Praying that God would continue to keep us all safe, and that I would be able to follow his direction.  This place is amazing.  We were greeted with smiles from everyone.  I was worried about how my nursing skills would be used.  I have already “treated” three of our team.  Minor things.  Bug bites, a small cut.  Nothing a band aid and a word of comfort cant fix.  Hopefully that is the worst thing I have to tend to.  I find that I am itching to visit the children at the orphanage.  Walking by, I can hear the screams and laughter from the girls.  It is amazing to me that they have so little, but still find joy in their day.  I am sad at missing the important people in my life, but finding my joy here every minute.

    You are ministering through your prayers and nursing skills. It's so reassuring knowing you are there to care for the physical needs of the team. Thank you!
