Thursday in Haiti started off a little rough. The medical team did a surgery before breakfast this morning, because there are so many needs. After breakfast, a five year-old boy came in with a bad hernia, so the team had to scramble and rearrange the surgery list. Immediately following this, they discovered that one of the men from yesterday’s surgery was bleeding, so they had to perform an exploratory surgery to find out what was happening. Fortunately they found where the blood was coming from and were able to get it corrected. The little boy’s surgery went well too.
Jan, Jim and Jennifer went into Port-au-Prince with the group from California. They were able to see some of the destruction and get a better feel for just how bad the earthquake was. They said even though it was difficult to see everything, they had a great time, because most of the trip was spent singing praise music.
HCM is hosting a conference for about 50 churches. There are a lot of people here for the conference and we were able to witness some of their worship service this evening.
What started off as a difficult day turned in to a great day of ministry. It’s hard to believe tomorrow is our last full day here in Haiti.
