This year we offered a hand massage to people as they were waiting. Despite the language barrier you could see the delight in their faces as we took time to care for them with essential oils.
This was a perfect setting to ask if there was anything that we could pray for them while they got the massage. We were so moved as each patient accepted. We prayed individually for them and when asked we also prayed for their families. One man when initially asked if he would like prayer, declined. He patiently waited for his turn in he clinic and watched as we prayed over others. He later returned and asked if we could pray with him too. Our community volunteers were so moved that they asked if we would pray for them too.
Our last patient of the day was very sick and was referred to a hospital. Before leaving the entire team had an opportunity to stand on the street corner and pray with her. We were in awe as we witnessed the Lords hand on her.
Wow.... This is day one - Can't wait to see what G-d does tomorrow !
