It's all about Relationships

As my good friend Ron says, “It’s all about relationships”.
 

Over the course of time, I have added, “Yes, and it’s all about Communication.”

Communication, Communication, Communication.

All about Relationships: Yes, with Jesus through God our Father…and then relationship with each other.

To develop any relationship, we need to communicate.

So it’s all about Communication, Communication, Communication

With each other, we communicate in many ways.

With God, we communicate through Prayer.

God communicated with us by sending his Son Jesus to earth...to die for us!

But in any relationship…even with the best of Relationship and communication, we mess up.

With God, we can repent and ask for forgiveness. 

So, to complete the circle...I have added yes, and it’s all about Forgiveness.

Forgiveness, Forgiveness, Forgiveness!

Just as we can have a relationship with God, through Jesus Christ and with each other…We can communicate our love and needs to Him and also to each other…

We mess up and then can ask God for forgiveness…and as He has made His

Forgiveness available to us…we then also need to forgive each other.

As we experience God's forgiveness and Grace, it's then pretty easy to forgive each other!

Also, don’t forget to forgive yourself…But that’s another story…

When we do that…we can truly have JOY!

Relationship with Jesus...that's what Christmas is all about!
It's NOT about religion...man's way to reach and try to connect with God.
We can't do it! 
It's all about Grace!

Relationships, Communication, Forgiveness

Where the 3 circles intersect...there is peace and Joy!
What have you experienced?

Jesus, Others, Yourself.Where the 3 circles intersect...there is JOY!

And then we can Bloom Where We Are Planted

Baja medical clinic: Autoclave

. Through contacts, Richard Dassow in Wisconsin, was able to locate an autoclave that is needed for the medical center at the Baja Mission. We are grateful that there will be good sterilization of the dental equipment used on a daily basis. TO GOD BE THE GLORY!

Janelle Keller's response to my questions about need for a doctor at this time.

People can definitely contact me with any questions.

Ideally we would love a full-time doctor and there is an allotment for that position so they would receive room and board and $300 a month. Long term the dream would be to have a birthing center where women could give birth in a safe and clean environment. So someday we would love to have a midwife and staff for that.

And of course, we welcome any doctors to visit short-term. And we welcome any specialties. The clinic is fairly up to date and we can facilitate most procedures that need to be done. We can’t do major surgeries yet but once we fulfill the list that I had sent you we will be able to move in that direction.

We currently have a full-time dentist and a full-time nurse. There was a full-time dental hygienist but she just left so that is a need as well. 

 Update as of 4/4/2013

. Dr. Laura Reyes, the dentist at the Baja Mission, is leaving after a year and half of service. She is the daughter of one of our missionaries and grew up at the Mission. She is a university graduate who resided in our Tijuana House. After graduation she came to serve at the Mission. Her departure means we are now praying for a doctor and a dentist to serve in the Medical Center.

as to their needs!

"The nurse in the clinic also recently put this update together to talk about their needs and what has been going on. What we really, really need in the clinic is a full-time doctor. But you offered to look for equipment and not people so you can pray about it!" 

Well, I am also posting on my Linkedin Profile and Twitter your need for a Doctor!

This is the followup that we promised we would send about our needs and the working of the clinic. We had Dr. Mowbray for the 1^st week in February and no other visiting doctors since. Dr. Avitia continues to work on Thursdays and seen many sick people in between. We have continued to have many sick staff and visitors with respiratory problems. We have been grateful to have access to a pediatrician at the hospital see our sick children at no charge.

The clinic is very busy with people coming for orthopedic supplies, medication, information and dressing changes. For this reason we continue to need more supplies.

The dental area is open every day and Dr. Laura sees patients form the community in the morning and staff in the afternoon. We are so thankful for her dedicated service.

Clinic staff remained unchanged .

On the 28^th we had a successful outreach to Las Aves with Dr. Avitia, the massage therapist Jeanie  and Dr. Laura the dentist. We had a great group of visitors who played with the children making kites, playing games and giving out gifts. Having the visitors makes for a more organized and fun experience for us and the kids. We are planning a monthly outreach and hope to have this support for most of them.

We have had some supplies coming in response to our needs list and we are thankful for that .

Some equipment needs follow:

Anesthetic Machine

Surgical lighting system

2 Cardiac Monitors

3 Portable Oximeters

Automatic Ventilator

Defibrillator

2 Kidney Table

1 Pasteur Tabe

2 Swivel Stools
