Dr. John Williams said that today (June 14) was the best day thus far for the missionary team. The medical team spent half day at the clinic then joined the rest of the team at the Granville Home for Girls. The clinic is somewhat less uncomfortable as they got an air condition unit to work. The patients were very grateful.
Dr. John Williams also had the opportunity to meet the minister of the local Methodist Church, a lovely lady, named The Rev. Violeta Irons.
There was a remarkable improvement in the behavior of the girls at the Granville Home were very good. They enjoyed playing Bingo, sack races, and egg in spoon races. There were no fights today – Thanks be to God !!
