Doctor Hoak , a Christian missionary doctor in Chichicastenango asked Joe to come and install a new operating light in the operating room of the hospital . Joe is getting ready here to put it up....it weighed a few hundred pounds so it was quite a job. While Joe did the job he had the pleasure of getting to know Dr. Hoak and his wife, two of the many missionaries who live here to bring the gospel to the Guatemalan people.

Life is a "grind" sometimes...but Joe knows how "spark some excitement" into it. Here you see part of the process in the operating room light installation.
(Excuse these puns and the ones to follow.... Joe's punniness has worn off on me)

Dr. Thomas Hoak , looking pretty happy with the new operating lights .

Well this job, well done was "divinely inspired"as we can see in this photo. Or perhaps we can see that "he went toward the light" or that it was "heavenly" to finish it!
