There were plenty of smiles and hugs to go around as CLC's medical team returned home. After spending 10 days with The Luke Commission - 4 of which were dedicated to day-long medical bush clinics- the team returned home to the cheers of many family and friends. Though a little tired from the 28 hours of travel, everyone appeared to be in good spirits. There are plenty of stories to tell; some happy, some harrowing and some heartbreaking.
Though CLC has supported The Luke Commission financially through our missionary outreach, this was our first actual partnership with the organization - and hopefully not our last! If you speak with any team member, they will tell you what an amazing, God-led ministry it is. It changes lives - spiritually and physically- day after day. We look forward to sending future teams to join them in their mission. Will you please pray for TLC? One specific prayer request came through as the team was returning home:
This week we have had a midnight tow for the broken axle on the big trailer (now repaired & ready to go!), our big vehicle is terminal & beyond repair (one that pulls the trailer), and another vehicle was involved in an accident today. Thankfully, no one was injured today & thanks to awesome ministry partners (and God) - we have a vehicle that will tow the big trailer to clinic tomorrow!
In just a few weeks, CLC will launch a three-week, Next Step class on Wednesday nights entitled "The Untold Stories of Swaziland". Various travelers will share their experiences of serving in Swaziland, and members of the Medical Team will be a part of that testimony. We invite you to come hear the amazing and miraculous things that God is doing in Swaziland and how He is using our teams to serve others.
Welcome Home Medical Team!
