Smiles and Sign Language

Today started off a little rough, about half the group woke not feeling great. Luckily we were able to load up on medication and work our way through the day. The construction crew went back to Pastor Juan's village to build a house for one of the locals. The sun was hot down on the ground, I can't imagine how hot it must have been for the team members that worked on the roof. To build this house we finished setting the cement floor, put up the roof, and put up siding. The easiest way for us to communicate with the locals was through smiles and hand gestures. At the clinic, we treated a record of 265 people in about 6 hours. For many, this was the first time they had medical attention, so they were nervous. A simple smile was able to help calm some of their nerves. Tomorrow is our last day in the field, pray that we will have another successful day :) - Ami and Taylor for the team.
