Day 1 and day 2-first please excuse my bad grammar, I am typing and posting from an iPod.
Well the ride over was uneventful. We were inspected very little. And we arrive to rocky pointe by noon. We were fortunate enough to have rooms donated at the Los palmos hotel. So all afternoon we got ready for the following clinic day. After sorting rice and beans to hand out at the clinic, I recruited the rest of team to help us
Medical people to sort and disburse medications/ vitamins. So for the rest of the afternoon we sorted daily vitamins(children's, prenatal, mature, and adult) and pain medications(i.e. Tylenol). Friday night we headed to the church and unloaded the food for the week and food for the feeding kitchen. then we stayed for the 7pm service that started at 730. The service went till930 when we headed to pastor carlos's house where his sister made us the best tacos I have ever had. It was great! Then we all headed back to hotel and crashed!
So the next day started a little late and little rough. I woke with a migraine and my alarm went off a little late so I woke everybody up in my room 15 minutes before we were suppose to go to breakfast and devotions. Everybody went to 501 which is pure hearts main room where they fixed breakfast and had devotions. Then a little late we were off for the day. The clinic was a little rough to start but we were able to help a lot of people and there a few complicated cases that were taken care of or referred to the hospital. Some of group broke off and went and worked at the feeding kitchen where we will have a clinic on Tuesday. They put in a concrete floor. We were able to pray with several people today and many bibles were handed out. We had a wonderful lunch that was cooked by the pastor's wife. At 3ish we closed and started to pack up. We were waiting for the other work group and as a few trickled in we found out that their cars kept getting stuck in the sand and they had to continuously getting them out of the sand. If you didn't know, rocky point is a misnomer. While there is a rocky point this place is mostly sand and there is sand everywhere. When the wind is blowing( which it was all day but with a passion in the afternoon) sand is everywhere and you start to taste it in your mouth. We then went to the main church temple hermosa to hang out until dinner is ready. After dinner we were done for the day!
