Hello friends! I just realized I haven't updated this week, so i don't know that i'll get 3 in, sorry. This week has been kinda slow ministry-wise. We've had mornings full of Spanish lessons and afternoons full of errands with Francis, so not a whole lot of free time.

I've been working a little with the medical inventory, organizing, bagging pills for the pharmacies they run with the medical brigades, and checking the count. It's been kinda slow, but at least i have plenty to do! I've gone through all the big stuff and have mostly pills and small items left. Nicole takes a break from her stuff to help me sometimes, so that's nice too.

Francis got a call this evening from Juan Carlos, saying they had taken his 10 year old daughter to the hospital because she had a fever. There is a disease here carries by mosquitos call "Dengue" that starts with a fever and is potentially fatal. I'm not sure about the treatment for it, but i know there are two different kinds and one is more dangerous than the other. Juan Carlos was concerned that his daughter, Daniela, has Dengue. Please keep her in your prayers. She is a happy, funny, sweet little girl. I have gotten to know her since i've been here because she speaks very good English, and she is amazing. And she comes from a fantastic family that is the perfect example of a Godly family.
