Day 2

This has been and interesting day and quite relaxing in some respects. Due to the national presidential election, we were advised to come back to the hotel for the day after we had services with Tonacatepeque and Alta Vista congregations.

You can't compare the number of people that were on the streets last year to the number that were there this year. Vehicles could hardly move down the street. I am talking vehicles of any kind let alone our school bus size, painted bus. We made several detours as the driver searched for passable ways to get to the location where we conducted our services and will conduct the clinic this week.

We had a very good bilingual service with songs in English and Spanish, prayers, scripture readings and sermon in either English or Spanish and translated in the other language. David Shannon delivered a good sermon as he always does. A short period of fellowship and short period of basic set up and we were off to the hotel for lunch. After lunch of peanut butter sandwiches and grille cheese sandwiches, we sorted and labeled our medicines. We also took time to repack all of our materials into logical lumps for the clinic.

Dave Huffman led us in a devo this afternoon. Dinner was prepared by Chef Ronnie and we were done for the day about 715 or so tonight. All in all a fairly easy day, but productive. Also it was good to visit with our Latin brothers and sisters a bit before opening the clinic. Seems kind of wimpish, compared to previous trips.

We have a team of 53 from 12 unique congregations. This year we have 16 people who have not been on a LAM trip before. We have 13 teenagers and 6 couples. Really a good mix of people.

Well, we start early in the morning (breakfast at 545) and we will not be back to the hotel until late (10 or so), therefore I am hitting the sack and get a good night's sleep.

Pray for our work: medical and evangelical. We came to save souls and we will be scouring the town for those who will listen.

Buddy
