Our final day at the clinic arrived with clear skies and a bright sun shining over Juan Tomás. By the end of the day, we welcomed and assisted 243 patients, proving once again that every moment of service counts.

One of the most powerful highlights of the day was witnessing lives being transformed. Daniel Beltrán, along with a worker from the McMillan’s farm, made the life-changing decision to accept Christ as their Lord and Savior with Faye Grund. And they weren’t the only ones—throughout the week, a total of 20 people surrendered their hearts to Jesus.

This is why we’re here. Every area—triage, consultations, pharmacy, registration, and even time spent at church—operated smoothly and with a sense of purpose. Someone on our team perfectly summed up the day by saying, “Everything ran smoothly because hearts were ready.”

That statement rang true for both our team and the community we served. Looking back at the past four days, we are in awe of what God has done. Our team was able to attend to and serve 1,001 patients—a new record for the MED4DR clinic! This milestone is not just about numbers but about the impact made in every life we touched. We are incredibly grateful for this opportunity to serve, to share the love of Jesus, and to witness His work firsthand. With the clinic officially wrapped up, tomorrow will be a day to rest and reflect. Our team will explore the city and enjoy some well-deserved time at the beach—but that’s a story for another day.

Thank you for following along on this journey - until next year! 

To God be the glory for all He has done!
