Nathan works while Dr. Strauss teaches
"The kingdom of God is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field." Matthew 13:44

A Good Day
Today was a good day. I worked with Balinda, who is currently the ward physician on the ship. She is from South Africa, and I enjoyed getting to know her very much. I will be helping her to admit patients to the ward. Nathan had a good day as well. He did twice as many cases as yesterday, and even though he sometimes still feels like a beginner, he's getting slightly better each day. We have had several encounters with people who are heavily into voodoo, even some in positions of religious authority in the culture. It is a very big thing here. Please pray that the Lord would use this experience to display himself as the one true God, and that he would reveal himself to them through the things that are said, and the things that are done for them. We had a date night last night, and watched a movie on the computer. It has been good time here together. Nathan was a little sad to hear about the bulldogs, but he's gotten over it quicker than usual. Here are a few pictures from the day:
