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.
