As believers we are Christ’s disciples.  As His disciples we must be willing to go where the Holy Spirit leads us.  I have been blessed.  For the past 13 years, God has been preparing me to do His work at Hope Community Health Center.  I first met Dave Engel (Clinic Director) and Ann Engel (Doctor) at Sun Valley Community Church; where we were members and where I receive my basic training in doing mission work.  Time would lead us through different roads, losing contact for years; but bringing us full circle back together at HCHC.  Each morning we begin the day with Scripture and prayer.  I am a bi-lingual receptionist.  I greet the patients, assist them in filling out their paper work, answer phones, and set up appointments, call back patients with lab results, interpret for Dr. Engel and even help clean the office at the days’ end.  All of it essential; but not as rewarding as when I assist the chaplain in assessing the individuals with basic needs such as food, clothing, job assistance and sharing the Gospel.  Experiencing the joy of knowing someone’s life has changed because they have just asked Jesus Christ in their heart is worth every minute, hour or day I am here.  The hardest part of my job is when I have to turn someone away because we are only open 2 days a week and our appointment times are booked several weeks in advance.  It breaks my heart when they say, “I don’t have insurance,” “I don’t have money.”  I just continue to pray and thank God for the patients we are able to help and have faith that in time we will be open more.
