We have visited the families who we will be building the homes for. The people of El Salvador are just amazing. Pastor Jorge and I went to deliver medical supplies (donated by a medical team from EMCC) to a women who is the village midwife. She had delivered two baby girls that morning. She was showing me a scar that she had that spread across her entire abdomen. She has had surgery 4 times to remove a growth that continues to grow back. I could see it and felt it. It is huge. She is so selfless. She said that she prays that God will continue to allow her to live so she can continue to help the people in San Felipe. She suffers in pain everyday and her only prayer is to be able to continue to serve. She has taught me an incerdible lesson today.
Starting the work tomorrow. Off to church now!
Hi dad and uncle Bruce! Glad to hear that you arrived safely. Hope that you maintain great health through the week. We're praying for you everyday and can't wait to hear the stories when you're back. We received your email, we'll be sure to call Andrea and keep her updated with any other notes you send. While you were eating greasy chicken, we had Grandma's homemade applesauce!
