We have a couple of special guests today. It's been a minute since they were here last. But this is Murray and Cheryl Greenwood. They're a couple of our missionaries, and they're visiting, they're on furlough right now, and so I thought it'd be really cool to introduce those. You don't know the Greenwoods to the Greenwoods, and let them give us kind of an update on what's happening, and kind of maybe their perspective on things.

We don't own a hospital, I volunteer part-time within the public health system of Ecuador, and in cooperation with the local Ecuadorian medical school, so I get to see patients, but especially kind of be the pediatric consultant for about 10 general doctors where I work. That's part-time. Then we're involved in a wide range of other things. My wife has led and essentially mentored up a whole group which we'll let her talk about, of people giving biblical financial counsel
