What an awesome week our OMMI team have had. We completed our medical clinic this afternoon with a total of more than 1,000 patients being evaluated and treated throughout the week. Then we packed up our supplies for storage and said our tearful goodbyes, especially me (Matt).
Please pray for the clinic workers who are tasked with keeping the clinic open and running throughout the year. This is a tremendous ministry for the pastor and his family. However, it is also very tiring and grueling work.
We were encouraged to find out that the clinic is treating as many as 75 people every day. While this is exciting, it also creates a logistical opportunity for us. Please pray that OMMI will find the funding that we need to keep the clinic running while increasing the medication budget to cover the additional patient load as well as potentially bringing in a second nurse to help relieve some of the strain.
The clinic director,Jacqueline had several specific requests. She notes that many of those coming to the clinic do not have (Spanish) bibles of their own and are requesting them. They also need coloring sheets and crayons and colored pencils to keep the children busy while their parents are being evaluated.
We serve an awesome God and pray that His will be done. We trust that He has already provided the solution according to His perfect plan!
