Dental Clinic

Last week we spent everyday, except Wednesday, helping out at a dental clinic in a town about 45 minutes away from Guatemala City. It was a great time, but really long days. We had to leave the base by 6:45 each morning and didn't get back until around 8 each night. The dental team was made up of dental students and doctors from the University of Florida. It was fun working with them and making new friends. It was also good to be able to help out the Guatemalan patients with the dental work they needed (of course I did not actually DO any dental work, I just translated for the dentists). They also gave us free check ups and ended up with a few extra patients.

We had an evangelistic team presenting dramas and praying with the patients as they waited for their turn. They were able to pray with 7 people who received Christ as their Savior for the first time! What a great week it was!! Here are some photos... Enjoy!
