Chris messaged me this morning with these numbers.
Here are the numbers as we know them from the week in Kenya. We are waiting on more accurate numbers when we get home. Medical saw over 1000 patients, dental-200, vet-1500 and around 250 salvations. I will have better numbers next week. I will send you another email by the time your Monday morning.
Today we worked at the clinic and we saw approximately 165 people. They leave in the morning for Pokot work there 2 days. Friday they will leave for Kitale for 2 days of clinics. Thursday and Friday evening they will be doing crusades through the community.
Everyone is doing great! Please continue to Pray!
This blog is a little late but I will post it anyways. Chris sent me this picture of the team getting ready to board the plane in Birmingham yesterday morning. It is a little blurry but I appreciate any pictures he sends me as I am sure you all do to. I will update the blog as often as I hear from him or get any updates.

I have finally uploaded ALL the pictures that you all gave me. I also want to thank you for getting them to me. A lot of you have mentioned that you would like copies of other people pictures. I have now created a shutterfly account so you can do exactly that. I tried to make each person’s pictures a folder but some of them got mixed together. Please let me know if you have any questions. Here is the site www.fbctmissions.shutterfly.com ~ if it asks you for a password just use fbct. I hope you all enjoy the pictures! Please let me know if you have any problems.
Chris, Blake, Lindsey & Michael left last Saturday to travel to Honduras to build a well. I do not want to copy all of Blake’s wonderful blog post so I am going to put a link here to read all of his wonderful blog posts from Honduras. Our team will be returning tomorrow so please keep them in your prayers for safe travels.
