Greetings family and friends,
This is Cristine, Anna's mom. The team has been in Honduras since last Thursday afternoon, that is 8 long days here, but 8 short days there. We spoke to Anna on Tuesday, the team is doing great. The report from Anna was that they were staying busy enough to feel useful, but not so busy as to feel over whelmed. The team visited some schools last week and it sounded like they worked on a project for a local pastor.
One day most of the group traveled to a school and Anna and her great Aunt Sue stayed back to organize medical supplies, in preparation for this week. Sue, a nurse at The Phillips Eye Institute, was able to bring a great quantity of medical supplies to use or leave for the Honduran people.
The remainder of the team arrived in Honduras this mid week and the group started right in with medical clinics. This is a report that came in last night:

Saw 142 individuals at clinic.
Saw too many to estimate in dentistry.
Maureen (on of the team members from Northridge Fellowship) took and printed over 100 family photos (the Hondurans have mostly never had their picture taken before).

Please pray for their continued safety and impact.

Thank you for continued prayers and all your support
Cristine Nielsen
