Both the Dentists we invited arrived this week.  They brought with them 3 suit cases of donated dental supplies ($3,500.00 worth).  Four months ago when we started this it seemed impossible.  Little miracles kept happening and now it is a reality.  The Governor of Choibalsan met us and treated all of us to a wonderful dinner and the next morning we found out he had also paid for our motel room.  After we met with the Hospital Administration they were so excited with the dental supplies and the dentist's knowledge and abilities that they changed what they were going to have the dentists do.  They were going to teach hygiene in the schools (15,000 students) and provide free dental service to the poor and needy children.  They are still going to do that but they are also going to provide training for the 9 dentists in the Province that serve 70,000 people. As you can see we are in way over our heads but we just keep going and heaven keeps helping us and miracles keep happening one after another.

Some of you know one of the dentists, Clyde Larsen, from Price.  He was in the college stake presidency with President Harrison.  Sally and Andy probably remember him.  Clyde will be in Choibalsan for 6 weeks.  It will cost these dentists $3-5,000 each to come and do humanitarian service.  We are amazed at the many generous people we have met.  People really can be amazing and do a tremendous amount of good which is very humbling to see and be a part of.
