Senegal

My parents. as well as all these fine people in the attractive blue polos (plus a few others) are leaving for Senegal today for 10 days. 

They are a team of three nurses, a dentist, a pharmacist, a pediatrician, a physician, a podiatrist, and my father "who has a background in public health" which may or may not be stretching the truth. All of them are flying out today, each with two suitcases in hand, one with their personal belongings, another packed to the brim with medical supplies. They are going to set up a clinic for 7 days with the intention of providing basic medical care for as many people as they can. From headaches, to wound care, to infectious diseases. All of this they will be doing this in a three room dirt floor, roofless building. In the sweltering heat, with no protection from the sun. Sterile technique will definitely be a challenge. I am asking you to pray. Pray for my family. Pray for the team. For safety. For effectiveness. For high spirits. And that the Lords work be done.
