I was overwhelmed by the welcome we got at Ekubo. Until then I had been caught up in our traveling and wasn't able to be really excited about the trip because it seemed like we would never get to a ministry site. All of those feelings quickly disappeared when we stepped out onto Ekubo's land. We immediately felt the Lord's presence and experienced Him through the smiles and laughter of his children. Today at Ekubo the nurses on our team got to go to the clinic and help their nurse David see some kids. One child had malaria and others coughs and fevers. We drained a significant amount of pus from a baby's finger who had a bad infection. In the afternoon we played with the kids. They are so content with standing around and holding your hand. They told us thst the kids prsy for the muzungus (white people) to come. In the afternoon I helped pump water for Ekubo and for a village woman that came to the bore hole. Last night we had a great debriefing and were able to start to process a lot of difficult things we have seen.
My bed broke last night so I pretty much slept in trendelenburg. Haha :) at least I know blood is flowing to my brain this morning!
