The next stage

Heyyo everyone!  I know it's been a few days.  But, as promised, I wanted to let you know how my trip is going to be a little bit different in the next week and a half.  

Yesterday I arrived at Chhatarpur hospital, roughly 420 miles southeast of Delhi.  This is another hospital visit, but what's different about this visit is that I'm going to be here for 4 whole days.  After this hospital, I'll go to another one (Lalitpur hospital) for 5 days.  The significance of longer visits is huge- it means I can spend time with people, rather than just seeing buildings and hearing about what's done.  Being able to build relationships and talk with people is awesome- you get to hear great stories of what God's doing and it makes the visit all the more meaningful.  It also means I can immerse myself a little more in the work that the hospital is doing.  I'm excited that tomorrow (Monday), I'll be going into a village with the Community Health team!  I'll get pictures and put them up when I can.  

On a side note, I wanted to ask you to pray for my health.  I have a cold right now, and while it's not bad it certainly doesn't help anything.  So, please pray that I would get over this quickly and get healthy again!  Thanks!
