Thank You Iowa & Indiana Team - Welcome Oregon Team!

We had an amazing week with the Indiana and Iowa team last week! The team was involved in multiple projects. The clinic was open all week and hundreds of patients were seen. Many team members assisted upstairs in organizing supplies. 

Naomi Helping in the Clinic
The Sheppard kids were able to serve alongside the team members in various ways. Even Naomi helped mom in the clinic and helped dad with some of the building projects. The picnic tables were completed and painted by the team. The team that is here this week actually is able to sit at the tables each day for lunch.

The Finished Picnic Tables
Much work was done on the trade school. Amazing to see the progress on such a huge project. It was wonderful to see so many team members working together digging holes, hauling cement, pouring concrete, and just plain working really hard. Most of the team also walked up the mountain each day, which is no small accomplishment!

Ron Helping with the Building Team on the Trade School
Some of the team members coordinated a basketball camp. That was a lot of fun for the students at the school as well as the team members! In Haiti, soccer is a HUGE deal, but basketball isn't as well known. The kids enjoyed learning something new.

Amazing Joan in the Pharmacy with Oregon Team Member
The Oregon team arrived this week and has been a huge blessing in the clinic. We have many new team members on this trip. We are so thankful that each and every team member has stepped out in faith to serve in Haiti.

David Helping with Inventory
David stops in each day at the clinic in between teaching classes at the school. There is always work to do shelving and categorizing items. Managing the inventory (or trying to at least) is a continual process, but the reward is in seeing the ability to serve so many patients throughout the week in the clinic. We are blessed that the Lord has really honored us to serve in a country that we love!
