last day of clinic

Well today was it we are finished with clinics I think we saw at least 1300 people. We had over 700 cards and with families we numbered them ABC and we had many families of 6-8 kids. I think we made a dent and i know we helped the ones we could and saved a few babies who would have died otherwise. I have an update on the little baby we sent to the hospital Monday i think the 3 month old boy who was close to death, he was doing much better. We found out he was HIV pos and had severe pneumonia but he is on the mend and doing well. Praise God. Pam has been working all week with a man who had a machete wound he started coming last Wed and came everyday for a recheck yesterday when he went to the tent for snack and fellowship he told the minister he was ready to ask Jesus onto his heart. What an ending to a fulll week. The people here are so polite and respectful. I will miss the children and the friends I have made but am ready to come home. Tommorrow we go to the falls then cruise down the nile. I look forward to seeing all my family I love and miss you all. Sheri

Proud is an understatement

Hi Gina, I've been blogging but for some reason they aren't showing up. Never done this before so I guess I messed it up some how. Shelly told me she would help me this time to make sure it goes through.

I just wanted to let you know how proud I am of you and the work that you and your team are doing. I know you have not only helped the people at GSF with their physical needs but, also with their spiritual and emotional needs. I'm sure you have touched the hearts of everyone you've come in contact with. I have enjoyed seeing the posted pictures and reading the comments of others so I can't wait to hear the first hand stories you will share. I think it would be hard to not want to bring some of your new found friends home with you. They all look sooooo cute. Thank you for sharing all the Blessings you have and may God watch over you and your team as you finish up your work and return home.

Peace, Prayers and Blessing to you all.

Love ya,

Linda (GG)

Amy

Hey All,

I was talking to Willis this morning and heard about Amy's illness. Anybody reading this post- will you please have Amy call me or one you update me? I noticed she didn't read her emails yet which is very unlike her. Please let me know what is going on.

Hi anyone, from Lynette

Hello, I'm glad you guys are getting to have some fun and see some stuff this week. I can't wait to hear about things in person when you get back. It's hard to get information or responses this way. Gina/Jennifer, we are having more baby goats this week! We lost one though )-: John, I would have loved to hear your sermon, I miss them. Love to all, Lynette

God bless all children

Hey to all...today was the last full day of clinic, have a half day tomorrow. We are all very exhausted, but our reward is much greater. Thursday will be our relaxing day, going to see the falls at Lake Victoria, then the boat ride down the Nile river! Time has passed very quickly, I cry every day at the conditions that these wonderful people have to live under and survive through, but I also smile and praise God every day that we are able to help these wonderful people of Uganda. It's so easy to make the children smile, they are all so appreciative!
Kim...I love you and thank you from the bottom of my heart for updating Mom. Please tell her I love her can't wait to see her and Kira. If I'm not too exhausted on sunday, I would love to come over for a cookout.
Jess....Love you and can't wait to give you a big hug. don't forget to drive my car to work on saturday, remember it has not been started in awhile, so let it warm up before taking off!! Please call Grandma if you haven't lately, I know she would love to hear your voice!
Well, time for supper, the nausea comes and goes, but its not too bad.
Love you all, Gina
