Headed home tomorrow

Today was mostly a day to relax and pack for our return home tomorrow. Here's a summary of the work that took place in our few days here.

61 people from Horizon Community Church and River Hills Christian Church traveled and served in some capacity
2 new homes built for 2 families
1 church re-roofed and painted
200+ homes screened and/or repaired
63 surgeries performed
200+ dermatology patients treated
700+ patients seen and/or treated in 4 villages

Thanks to all of you who kept up with us on this blog and for all of your prayers and notes! This trip has been an incredible experience. The people of Belize, especially those living in extreme poverty, are very kind and loving. There is so much need here as you have likely seen in the stories and pictures we've shared. When we pool our resources and work together, amazing things can happen for so much good.

If you are interested in learning about opportunities to participate next year, please email John Kirby at jkirby@horizoncc.com.

Wow! The results of your visit are incredible. It is amazing how much we have to offer to others if we just step out of our comfort zone. Your success encourages me to take my turn! Jerry
