Medical missionaries report harvest of souls in Guatemala

Kemmel and Lisa Dunham report on the corn harvest — and a harvest of souls — in the Central American nation of Guatemala, where they serve as missionaries for Health Talents International.
“We are … enjoying seeing the fruit of spiritual harvest around here,” the couple writes in a recent blog post. “The church in Mactzul V, which has been dedicated in visiting and praying with the sick in their community, had four baptisms last week.”
In Xepol, where we have clinic as well, a family has been converted after many visits and prayer in times of trouble and illness. The family are patients that Sheri (Kretzschmar, another medical missionary) has taken care of in clinic for several years now, and the church has faithfully taken time to further reach them.
In Choacaman, one of our long-time patients, Manuel, has also come to Christ and yesterday was baptized. This family is precious to us and for many years we have visited them in their home, prayed with them and for them.
