SAGUA LA GRANDE / by rachel sanchez-parodi

Sadiel and Zady pastor the Church on the Avenue in Sagua. They keep an eye in their community and seem to have inexhaustible energy.  We arrive at their door early in the morning and they are already at work serving their community. Sadiel is on his way to repair the flat tires on their bikes so they can visit people and Zady is on her way out to run errands on foot.  She is going to visit people who she knows could use some of the donated medicines we brought.  In the afternoon she sends us a message that their test strips work on the glucose meters we brought and a little girl can now test her glucose level using one of the meters.  One problem of many solved.  Be it food for the elderly at a nursing home, helping a mother with a disabled child, ministering to families of fisherman in a near-by town, sharing their dinner with someone who knocked at their door or sharing the Gospel – they are always on the go.
