Medical Campaign 6-23-10

After our morning Spanish lesson, Stephen and I took a taxi to VidaNueva (in case you're wondering, Jeff has to call them and tell them when to pick us up and where we're going.) Jeff picked us up and took us to the church where the medical team was set up. The building was small, but the pastor was very organized. There were multiple witnessing teams, 3 nurse/triage areas, 4 doctors, 3 dentists and the pharmacy. Although Stephen and I had lunch before we went, everyone else enjoyed a snack pack of chicken from Pollo Campero. If you've ever been to El Salvador, you may have enjoyed some of their chicken. In fact, there's almost always multiple boxes of Pollo Campero heading back to the states on the flight home.

The afternoon was extremely busy. The people are so patient as they move from one line to another. The members of the medical team, whether from the states or El Salvador, really care about the patients. We finished the final patient, packed up and headed back to church about 4:30.

After a stop at Super Selectos for groceries, we were home for the night. A little dinner and some studying finished off the day.
