Day 2: Water in Otavalo then Punyaro

"...but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”
John 4:14

Dear friends,

The team is eating breakfast, ready for a new day. We rested well here at Dona Esther Hostal in Otavalo, high in the Andes.  Today we serve in the village of Punyaro, where the local pastor has made arrangements for our first clinic to be held.

Our devotional theme this year is water.  How critical to life is water?  Completely!  We cannot live long without it.  As we serve those with needs today, we will seek to educate them about basic principles of good health.  One of those is to drink plenty of clean fluids every day.  Indeed, every team member will be carrying a bottle of clean water.  We are teachers more by what we do than what we say.

Jesus is our true Water.  He is our life.  We will watch today for living evidence of that fact.

Dependent on Him for life,
Drs. Tim and Kim
