Sunday night

Today the team went in different directions. It was a day to sleep in and visit places of interest and a day of reflection. Nick lead a great discussion during a brunch about why poverty exists and what we as individuals do to contribute to it. We talked about how individuals and organizations have the ability to promote change through developing systems. We compared poverty in the US and poverty in third world countries. It was sobering, but an important step towards making a difference.

Dr Lance Evans, an American who has trained, practiced and lived here for many years arrived at the hostal tonight. He´ll be joining our mission for the next 3 days of clinic. I´m looking forward to learning and sharing medical diagnostics and treatments with him.

I may not be able to journal tomorrow because we are sleeping at the clinic site tomorrow night. Tuesday night may be a late night, so it may be 2 days before I journal again. Know that we´re working and contributing all we can.

Adios for now

Terry
