Thursday evening

Today has been another long day for the team.....this morning I was able to go to the nursing school here with Carl....eighty students will begin school in March at the cost of $60 a year, however, this does not include food or lodging or materials.  The students share textbooks between all of them in a small library and are required to bring their own syringes, needles, etc, in order to practice in skills lab.

The neonatal intensive care was also a busy place today.  There, they had a few premature babies born over the last few days, some doing better than others......their spirits and will to live here is amazing to me.  You would be amazed at how they infuse IV fluids and keep track of what they are doing......all on paper!

Also, the end of my day I was able to pray with some other members of our team for a young woman about 15 years old whose spirit is manifested by demons.  We prayed for her and with her family and will check on her in the morning.

Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts......they are all needed down here!
