first of all we have arrived safely except for the most important item that carries the weight of it all….our medical equipment.
Despite the hurdle the team has taken on the challenge with possibility and trust that god makes a way. Its learning the nuances of the different culture norms and how stress is handled, to give back with kindness but to create the boundary to be the best version of yourself to carry forward gods call and you bet we hustled to get what we need to have our outreach clinic.
Questions on everyone’s mind:
– How will we be able to tell the patients with the most need and deserving of the charity
– How to handle with cultural norms sensitivity towards certain medical conditions, ailments.
– How to be conscientious of your non-verbal cues and how its most observed by the locals here
The takeaway of it all is, provided you’ve done your part,give your worries onto god, trust in him and the rest of it will follow.
For tonight we revel in the moments we had, the food (well the sizes of the avocados haha) what was noticed in the scenery ,the sights of people going about their lives with vigor and chaos all pushing on to the next day, as we surely will as well tomorrow.
