Assessment Day

Assessment day was yesterday and it went very well.
Smooth, orderly, and calm.
The weather even cooperated.

It was our largest screening day to date with over 7300 people evaluated for whether we could help them via surgery. Those that we couldn't (as well as those we could) were offered prayer. All in all we handed out over 4200 cards to people for surgery or further evaluation. A successful (and extremely tiring) day! 

For the full story of what screening was and more importantly why Mercy Ships - why I - am here in Africa, read Jay's account.

Dana Perino also wrote a piece on her blog which offers a more nuts-and-bolts description of the day.

Both are worth the read.
