San Jose Pacul

Today was our first day of clinics.  The nurses who take the medical history of each patient hear many stories.  We will tell you three stories today.
A forty-nine year old woman who has 15 brothers and sisters told Faye that she never went to school when she was young because she had to take care of her siblings.  Last year she went to school and was proud that she was number one in first grade.  Now she can read but she doesn't see well.  We were able to fit her with glasses.

One of the questions the nurses asked was "Have your accepted Jesus?"  The lady replied no but I want to.  A local church leader, Oscar lead this woman to Christ and the nurses hugged her as a new sister in Christ.  The local church will follow up with her to encourage her.

Another lady who was pregnant told the nurse that she can't sleep and was depressed since her brother died.  This woman has two boys and two girls.  When asked what she wanted a boy or a girl she replied "Whatever God blesses me with."  The pastor's wife prayed with her before she left.

A total of 145 people, mainly children were seen by the doctors today.
