St. John the Baptist Mission Trip
A missionary group from St. John the Baptist is now in Piura. Their group consists of medical, dental, and families. Some youth visited a man to whom I have taken Communion for several years. He is almost blind from cataracts and lives in a very small house by himself. A family member lives nearby and brings him food. He was ready for cataract surgery in June, but could not get to the clinic. He cries most of the time when I visit him.
Several photos I recently received showed two youth attending to his personal needs such as a haircut, shave (see photo), finger nails, etc. One photo amazed me: he was smiling! Yea for youth!
