Ice Cream....Not Inventories

Proverbs 22:17a  A cheerful heart is good medicine. NIV

Today was full of "good" medicine. We started out in the cattle truck for our trek to St. Marc.

Heather and Sabine interviewed kids at St. Marc while Shari and Deb were with the Community Agents and Anite. Again, we found everything in good order. The kids were so friendly! When going with Oliese and Miline to distribute vitamins, we found ourselves in an English class. They all stood up and spoke English to us at the direction of their teacher. We spoke English back to them, because we know no Creole.

Heather and Sabine interviewed future "nurses, teachers, lawyers, masons, pastors, and cooks." Lots of potential!

Pastor Jean Michel drove us back to the Mission Center, and had a great surprise for us. He stopped at a store and sent Anite in. She came back to the car with a wonderful treat...Ice Cream for each of us in a variety of flavors. No lunch needed after that! What a kind gesture of love that was much appreciated!

This afternoon half of the Community Agents came for another set of competencies. We think they are enjoying one-on-one time with each of us. It's exciting to see them learning and they ask very insightful questions. They are a joy to teach!

After supper we prepared for our CPR class at Pierre Payen Clinic tomorrow morning. The CPR manikins are ready to go. We also perfected our Heimlich maneuver.

No worries...Deb is OK!

We started out with a cheerful heart. 

From our hearts to yours.....CHEERS!
