On has to wonder what experiences this lady has had in her lifetime. She came to the medical clinic and is being discussed by the nurses. I bet she would love to tell some stories about her childhood.

The kids at this location were able to have a lot of fun using pieces of cardboard as sleds and sliding down a hill! No batteries or irritating noises are associated with these toys - just fun!

Please remember to pray for the La Palma church frequently. It has some serious problems. A brother wanted to have his own way and has caused a lot of trouble. He has lied numerous times abour various things and people. He stole money from the church treasury. He sued the church through the labor department for wages he did not earn. He has caused a tremendous amount of division. I met with the preachers from La Palma and San Ignacio and encouraged them to unite against this evil, and to do as the children of Israel were to do: "purge the evil from among you". They are working together now against the evil one. God is greater than any man, so implore God to help the church be strong. Ralph

Katrina and Juanita enjoy a break during a lull in activities at El Gramal. These two hard working ladies are from Louisiana and were a terrific addition to the team.

Here is the clinic set up at El Gramal in a very nice facility. The nurses are working to the right of the photo and Giovanni is preaching to the people waiting to be seen.
