Uncle Durasi(nose) had a terrible setback. His daughter died and she have a very young baby , so we had to save a the baby . The baby did not have any breastmilk for a while and was very hungry. So I went and bought some formula and bottles so that we could give that to the baby. We had to walk in that water and that was another experience. Not to tell what is in the water. Rather not think about that. As you know the water is a mix off all the garbage of Davao. Like my friend said who went with me,"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall fear no germs."
At this time the baby is doing fine and 2 young girls are looking at him. Please pray for the boy, Romel, he is only 2 months old.
Another concern is uncle Durasi. The other Badjaos tell me that Durasi also want to die now. He is only laying in his shack and want to die. Please pray for a dear friend. This is serious. I need to fix his wound. It was bleeding very bad the day his daughter died, but the only thing I could do was to pray with him. Pray that God will be an encourager to him and that he will stand up and live.
Unfortunately the Badjaos do not care for one another and the others do not even want to go and pray with him. Pray for healing under the Badjaos that they will go and help their neighbors. They will only help if that person is family. Do not judge them for that, we need to pray that they will start seeing that . Our only hope for them is that they start looking after one another. They can have all the blessings they can handle but if they do not love one another and helping each other they are lacking in their ways of being a Christian. No good if we look only after ourselves and laugh at out neighbor that is struggling. Please pray serious for this problem as there are so many people working with the Badjaos but so few teach them the basics.
Rommel survived the whole trauma of his mother not there. He became a fine young boy. Always happy and smiling and always want to go and swim in the sea. We are so glad that we could save his life. He is a nobody in other people’s eyes but in God’s eyes he is precious
To God all the Glory
