A Well-Deserved Day of Fun!!
Staff
March 1, 2008
At Sons of Thunder Medical Clinic we see over 1000 patients a month with inpatient and HIV patient numbers climbing. What draws patients to us? Why do they pass other health facilities to get to us? We believe it's because we offer hope to a people without any. We offer Jesus. As a team, we show the love of Jesus and witness to the sick and dying. Our Zambian medical team is now 13 people strong: a chaplain, a clinical officer, 6 clinical assistants, a driver, a cook, a gardener and 2 cleaning staff. They work hard, not taking lunch and staying late, giving of themselves with the compassion of Christ. We have been blessed with a team that not only loves Jesus, but shares our passion to demonstrate the love of Jesus with others. Sometimes it's just as important to minister to the servants as it is the multitudes. It was time to say "well done" and "thank you," so before we left for furlough we all packed in to the Land Rover and one Game Viewer and headed for a day of sightseeing and fun at Victoria Falls. Some of our staff, although in Zambia all their lives, had never been to the Falls. It was an exciting day and very rewarding to watch their smiles and hear their laughter as they got soaked from the rainy season "mist" despite the provided raingear. They stood in awe of God's majesty, speechless at the grandeur and magnificence of His creation. Then they hiked down to the "boiling point" where baboons and monkeys frolic and roam. Very tired and hungry after the hike back up to the vehicles, we ended up at Funky Monkey where we introduced them all to pizza!! It was a very special day and one that will be long remembered!
