Ella’s allibi
Early in the morning, just when I logged out from OHJ, the team of the Body and Soul Ministries who conducted the Medical Mission arrived. Donald and Ella went with them at Tatang and Inang’s place for breakfast while I did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. While I did this, members and neighbors started to arrive and waited in the chapel.
After I had my shower and was dressed, they arrived and the setting up of the medicines and equipments began. I was busy going to and fro the house and the chapel while Ella was doing her own thing. She was at the Doctor’s side or the patient’s back.
The doctor asked her if she wanted her bad tooth to be pulled too and she answered, “I have cough and colds now, maybe next time….” 
Dr. Samuel B. Cariaga and her two assistants are from Butuan City and was over the Asia and the Philippines doing this ministry. The Body and Soul Ministries in cooperation with the Churches of Christ of the Philippines has helped many people. There are over a hundred patients that were checked up and given medicines and vitamins. One has a cyst removed and more than a dozen who have their teeth pulled. Thanks to the sponsors aborad for the generosity.
Tomorrow is Sunday once again, Ella’s favorite day of the week. Still I have a shift from 12 midnight to 8 in the morning tomorrow…I am used to it now. WE have not been checked up yet so tomorrow we will be falling in line after the worship service. Hope you all will have a blessed Sunday!!!!
