Sheri! Sheri!

Well, after 12 years of full time living and working in Guatemala, our dear sister/friend Sheri is changing gears and taking on a different role in the Health Talents family. She will be helping to lead surgical groups to Clinica Ezell, working to recruit nurses and others for our medical/surgical teams and visiting churches in the States to share more about the work in Guatemala. She will be living States side but still visiting us frequently.
We can't even begin to tell about all of the ways Sheri has impacted the work here in the Quiche area. She has taken on roles of medical provider, teacher, evangelist, mentor and chaplain, always working with the goal of bringing others to Christ.
One of our favorite memories is us driving down the road coming back from clinic day in Mactzul, and as we drove by some kids, they yelled out "Sheri! Sheri!"  Ever since then, I've called her Sheri, Sheri.  Haha! She is well loved by us, our coworkers, all of the ladies groups she taught, our patients and everyone who met her.
We are so excited for the new work she will be doing and know Sheri will be a great advocate of the work in Guatemala. But we sure will miss you living down the street Sheri, Sheri!
Dios catewe chinik, friend!
Girl power!

Always teaching.

Enjoying the afternoon with families of our staff.

Nurse extraordinaire!

Sheri's always on the lookout for a lamb to adopt!

Healing the sick and afflicted and loving every minute of it!

One of Sheri's many adopted kids.

Lisa and Kemmel, there are no words no describe the last 12 years. I miss and pray for you guys daily. You provided opportunities and support that allowed me to do things that I never dreamed of doing. I can not thank you enough. I am thankful that we do not have any, "Good byes," just, "See you later!"
