Our DR mission team is now finalized, and a good team it is. We have 2 physicians, 1 nurse, and 13 regular folks. We held our first official team meeting Monday night. I talked about mission work versus "Christian tourism", and the importance being physically and spiritually prepared for what we are about to do.
The day before, we held another fund raising luncheon after the a.m. service at FBC. The food was Mexican this time. We got a lady in Mexico to make us 57 dozen (!) tamales, and they arrived hot and fresh Sunday morning. The meal was rounded out with beans, salad, and arroz con leche for dessert. The food was deliciosa. (If you think Taco Bell is good Mexican food, you need to pay us a visit).
Many thanks go to Laura Cavazos, a member at FBC. Even though she is not going on the trip, she is always glad to help us.
We leave on June 7th. We would appreciate your prayers.
