Good Times with Abilene Christian University

In March we enjoyed a week with a team from Abilene Christian University, Kemmel's alma mater. They did a great job helping us knock out some more well child checkups for our ABC kids in the Highlands and also helped paint one of our clinic sites and deliver water filters.  Some of the most enthusiastic comments came from the team members who got to deliver Tiva water filters to new ABC families.  This involved hiking, visiting, and setting up the filter and demonstrating how to use it to the families. They also had Drs. Sky and Louise Forrister join us, which was fun because they had been interns here back in the 80s with Dr. Mike and Julie Kelly.  So it was a little homecoming of sorts. Good job, Wildcats!
