Fe Y Alegria

 We arrive in "Faith and Happiness" School 26 for our next two days of work, only a one hour butt crushing ride from our hotel. To our surprise the local community has already lined up outside the school and down the block.




Just a few hours later the registered patients have completed the first 5 stations in the classrooms around the square and are now seating in the dispensary with anticipation.

Thank God for our student interpreters who make
