First Day of Physicals!

This morning we awoke to a beautiful morning as we prepared ourselves to be a Servant of God as we provided love and care to the children of MPCA school. Our hearts were full and our faces were filled with smiles when we listened to the children begin their day with morning worship. We were able to listen to them sing and relate their songs to the same songs we sing at Church! The team prepared the clinic to bring medical needs to the preschool and school age children. We had different stations set up from height and weight, foot checks, audiology, nurse visits, vision, to doctor follow ups. Medications were provded for the children and charting completed in order to build medical history for future visits. These beautiful children touched our hearts and filled us with joy throughout the day. God has blessed our team with translators to ensure the communication. We would not be able to do these clinics without them! Everyone on this trip brought something to the school and to the children at MPCA. The return drive in the cattle truck was a little quiet compared to most trips.  Some were tired, some reflecting on the day but everyone feeling grateful for what had been accomplished. Upon return to the Center, a few went for a short swim in the ocean. Some prepared supplies for tomorrow, and we all awaited anxiously for the dinner bell to ring so we could enjoy fellowship and another wonderful meal prepared by Maude. We can't wait to see what the rest of the week brings and the different ways we can continue to help these children.
