Village of Acatenango

This morning we woke up and ate breakfast as a group and participated in devotions with the Guatemalan ministry team at the mission house. We then headed out to the village of Acatenango which is 7,000 feet above sea level, in the mountains, and near a farming community. It was much cooler in the mountains which was a nice break from the heat in the city:) We set up the medical clinic in a local church and everyone on our team was assigned to a different station (Pharmacy, Kids, and Counseling)!! The people of the village were so enthusiastic to see us and the people of the church were so kind and welcoming. For lunch, the women of the church served us a Guatemalan meal of carrots, squash, corn, potatoes, and meat in a tomatoe soup. After lunch we worked at the medical clinic for a few more hours before packing up to head back into Guatemala city. Today we saw 86 patients and 9 came to accept the Lord. Amazing stuff!! It will be another early night tonight as we travel to another village in the morning. Thank you again to all who are praying and for your encouragement. You all are blessings!
