Dental Clinic and Orphanage

Some of the senior missionaries here with us are dentists who staff a  a  modern, well-equiped clinic in Guatemala City that was built by but not owned by the Church. They work on any missionaries with problems and also help lots of others not only in Guatemala, but they travel throughout Central America as well going into communitites and provide free dental services to whomever needs it. I am including a picture of a mural in the clinic that was made by the builders. If you look closely you will see a pair of missionaries with their Book of Mormon although there is no overt identification of them as it is a public clinic.

The clinic is next to a girls orphanage. These are kids that would otherwise be fending for themselves on the street. You will see pictures of the older girls making bread and one of our own, Sister Murray, demonstrating the proper way to knead bread by hand.
