God's Timing Is Always Perfect

 Tending to a mother who just gave birth to a bouncing baby boy! We could not understand a change in plans for today, until this mother-in-labor came to our clinic. Bro. Mobley is at the Airport to receive the next medical team coming in. The pastor who was to take us to a mobile clinic today never showed up. But God knew all about it.


Vanessa in all her glory!


Hannah carefully cuts the baby's cord.


Hannah holds her 51st baby delivery overseas!


Dr. Rick works on the cast of Dr. Brad's favorite patient while her father intently looks on.  We have learned that her full name is Ysemerline Rene'


Is that a hacksaw blade I see?  Hey!  It worked pretty good.  What else can you expect in Haiti with no electricity?


Yike!  Those scissors!  It was good Dr. Rick removed part of the cast due to her complaints of pain ... there was a bad sore there.  We are now working on whatever it takes to get her transferred to the US, possibly Geisinger, for the kind of care and surgery that Ysemerline really needs.

Hello!

Maggie Lapp (Rick is her father) is a very good friend of mine and she told me about the work her father and others are doing. I am currently working with a youth group in California and they are looking for a way to help out in Haiti. Please let me know if there is anything my group of teens can do to assist your work in Haiti.

Warmly and Prayerfully,
