Dental Camp at Good Shepherd Mission


It was a bit hard getting started today after only getting back to the mission at 4:30AM but the dentists managed to get up early. As we waited for breakfast we had yesterday's and today's devotions. We reflected on our journey to GSM and "letting God work through us.". We also talked about letting our actions speak louder than words (Colossians 2:5). 

We made our way to the hospital to get ready. The people were already assembled in the lobby.

 
  We introduced the team and dentists.

  We had noticed this woman during the introduction who really looked like she was in pain. We found her and Chad began working on a severely infected tooth.

 Jill also had an extraction.

Passage Colossians 2:5:5 For though I am far away from you, my heart is with you. And I rejoice that you are living as you should and that your faith in Christ is strong.
