Fatima

Monday morning we went to an area called Fatima. It is a very poor part of Guaymas and was the hardest hit area when Hurricane Jimena hit here a couple of years ago.  The rains stalled over Guaymas for 36 hours. Fatima sits in a valley surrounded by the mountians, so all of the water coming off the mountains raced through this small town, destroying homes and property.
There is a team of doctors here in Guaymas/ San Carlos from Montana. They set up a free clinic in Fatima for the day on Monday.





These people are waiting to see a doctor at the clinic.

Prayer was offered to those who desired. Bibles were given out to those who accepted one as well.

A sample of what you see for homes in Fatima.

Waiting for the doctor to check out her beautiful baby.

Preliminary checks were done before seeing the doctor.

An area was set up for people to find a pair of reading glasses if they needed some.

This couple had a powerful faith story. He had been in a hospital after having had a colostomy along with 5 others who had the same surgery. He was the only one who survived. He had no doubt that it was the Lord who kept him alive!  

Another home.

These same doctors were here a couple of years ago when we were and set up a free clinic in the Los Cerritos village.
