Hospital Visit

Dear friends and family,
Hola from Argentina! We have been enjoying our time here and getting to meet the many people of this country. Everywhere we go, we are met with warm greetings. It is beautiful here and most of us are hoping to come back again someday. We have had the opportunity to visit many different churches as well as a school and a children’s home. The three nursing students of the team (including myself) had the amazing privilege of visiting a children’s hospital in Buenos Aires where we got to observe two surgeries. This day was probably one of the highlights of the trip, at least for me. The experience was interesting and even though there was a language barrier most of the time, we still could learn as we watched the procedures. Some of the hospital personnel graciously gave us a tour on each of the floors and answered our questions – all through a limited vocabulary of Spanish and English. I am excited for the opportunities our team has already had and am looking forward to what is ahead for the next few days. I just wanted to thank each one of you who is praying for our team and ask that you would continue to do so. We want to be a light for Jesus everywhere we go and this is something we cannot do in our own strength. Join us in prayer as we seek to glorify God in Argentina! Gracias!
--Bonnie, for the team
