Yesterday marked the completion of the first Women\u2019s Holistic Medical Caravan in wonderful collaboration of the Women\u2019s Ministry of the Covenant Church of Ecuador, the Santiago Partnership, Covenant missionaries from the States and Sweden, and volunteers from Ecuador, the United States and Canada!\u00a0 It was a full week of focus on women\u2019s health (mind, body and spirit) as well as building relationships with those on our team and those we worked with in the different churches.\u00a0 We traveled to San Gabriel, a four hour drive from Quito.\u00a0 We were there for two days.\u00a0 On Wednesday evening, one of our Covenant missionaries, Denise Garcia, brought the word to those in the church.\u00a0 We then traveled to Pungayuiaco, a Kichwa community close to Ibarra, about two and a half hours from Quito.\u00a0 On Friday, we had a wonderful worship service with many women from the surrounding communities coming to worship and learn together.\u00a0 We sang Kichwa worship songs, heard many songs from the different communities and were encouraged with our Pastora Lilliana Estevez preaching the word.\u00a0 This week in reflection brings many images to mind as so many women worked together to help women.\u00a0 One of the women who worked with us in counseling described moments together in the counseling sessions as \u201choly moments\u201d when women share things they have never shared before.\u00a0 I look back and this week and truly believe it was a \u201choly moment.\u201d\u00a0 Bringing women together to help women, in every sense of the word from feeling welcomed and loved, sharing the gospel, treating and healing, praying together, laughing together and many other ways of being together.\u00a0 God\u2019s hand was truly evident during the week.\u00a0 Seeing how the women who were volunteering were helping and using their gifts was a holy moment indeed.<\/h2>\n
