Guatemala Day 4

For those of you who’ve been on a mission trip you understand the need to be flexible and prepare for the unexpected. Wednesday was one of those days we didn’t know what to expect. No team had come to Jalapa without a Dr. to do a basic health clinic of vision, hearing and blood pressure screening. We did just that, then created records of everyone who came so future groups can pull up information on children or adults and view some of their medical history. By the way, over half of the kids failed their hearing test. Invitations were sent out to the Christian school and public school children. We had no idea what to expect and we really didn’t count on a line of children and parents waiting for us when we got there. We ended up seeing about about 50 kids and had time left over to start some painting and leveling off some dirt on the anticipated new soccer field.
