Thursday Re:port from Courtney

What an amazing journey this has been. I’m so grateful to be here and have met these amazing people.

Today we went to the school of blind to teach them about dental. Wow, that was crazy. Its amazing to me how this community is taking care of their oral health. Cleaning their teeth with twigs and living with pain everyday. This leadership group is all teenagers that are living this way. I pray that our teaching will help them understand how important it is to teach their community about oral health and this will be a start of something amazing.

This afternoon we spent some time with the younger children at the school if blind. As we walked off the bus towards the school the children began to run toward us, knowing where to run and without tripping over large rocks. We were so welcomed by these children. Their hands were out ready to shake ours, introducing themselves. I met two little girls, one had her hand wrapped around my waist and the other holding my hand. These sweet girls began to sing to me their english song they have been learning at their school, they stole a part of my heart. This has been an awesome experience.

We have had a couple of team members that have got very sick, please be praying for them.
