God moved in ways we never could have planned or imagined. We had 616 patients who received either medical, dental or reading glasses and some received all three!
I was short a physician for Monday and Tues. but an old friend from Saraguro came to help out, Dr. Yonder Mogrovejo. The rest of the week a young Christian doctor came to help us out and caught the vision for medical missions. He can’t wait to come back. Dr. Luis Vacacela from Saraguro was our dentist for the week. Dr. Kime and Dr. Lehman worked like crazy as did Nancy Kime fitting glasses.
Our accommodations were very comfortable although the weather was pretty chilly (so we didn’t sweat all the time like usually at the beach)
Many people came from a small “squatters” community close to the church with many needs. We even got to take part in a baptism right at the beach.
Saturday we got to tour Guayaquil and do some shopping. The team was supposed to fly out on Saturday at midnight but that got delayed and they are just arriving home today, Tuesday!
Below are some pictures from the team.
