Hey there from a wonderful and clean Namibia. We
take so much stuff for granted when we are not living here, like clean air and
surroundings. The desert is beautiful even now that the Eastern wind is
blowing. It is strange when it’s cold inland that is stinking hot at the coast.
The wind blow from the desert and lots of dust fly around. We enjoy the sea and
the boys are swimming even if they die of the cold. We will visit the Etosha
Game Park on next week Friday and are looking forward to do some camping and
see game.
We thank the Lord that we can be at home this time
to visit with our family. It’s always a huge privilege to see our family and
encourage them as well. We count our blessings as we are so blessed by so many
people and that’s why we can be a blessing to many.
Continue to pray for Fe.
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL!
I planned to be away on my birthday...I
got my things packed and my watch set to wake up before everybody does. But,
not in my hundred thoughts that my boys had something planned. They woke up before
i did...sang a birthday song, with a cake, made a big poster and prayed. I felt
so much loved.
Their plans were spontaneous...went for
a walk, Paul played basketball and I joined a Zumba for the first time. It was
a great form of exercise.
I enjoyed my day.
To all of who have remembered my special
day, THANK YOU! God bless you more. Praise God. Each day is precious!
Please continue to pray for Quinton Calitz. He is at
home after his operation and recovers well. Still a few issues from the
operation but his positive spirit make it easy to be around him. We pray that
his cancer count will be down completely.
Please pray for a school friend of mine, Deon Botha
who is fighting Esophageal Cancer and will start his chemo therapy on Monday
09.
Mordegai’s mum, Matra is struggling with a blood
clot in her lungs. She was in hospital just a week ago but is at home with my
little brother.
Please continue to pray for our missionary friend
Steve Hyde as he is still recovery from his clots in his lungs. It will take a
long time for him to fully recover but we believe in a miracle for him to
return again to Cambodia.
Another missionary friend, Victoria Cox, recently returns
to the states and encounter some medical issues.
We have a lot to be thankful for. First
I am thankful that we discovered a mass on my kidney. Regardless of what it
turns out to be it is growing and needs to be removed. And even though I had to
spend a week in the hospital with various illness I'm grateful to the Lord for
his Mercy.
Today I had my consultation with the
surgeon who will remove the mass for my kidney. He seems to be very
knowledgeable and very confident that he will be able to remove a piece of my
kidney without having to remove the entire thing. The "mass" is 3cm
which is about 1/3 of the kidney.
I'm so greatful for the many people who
have helped and have offered to help. For now my job is to recover from
pneumonia and get healthy for a July surgery. We do still hope to attend a
family reunion in Montana, however I have learned my lesson. We will trust that
if it is God's will we will be able to go.
I'm alive!! I can't express the
gratitude in my heart for your prayers, notes and encouragement. If I were in
Cambodia, in my village 6h from a doctor, this story could have been so
different.
I haven't been in the states for the
birth of my 3&4 kids. When we are sick with various disease we are often
alone. YOU have been the hands of God in my life . Thank you all so very much.
I feel so loved.
Today I left the house with my Chris Cox
and had a real date. I feel stronger daily . We still have a long road to go
on, with my surgery in August 6 . But we are filled with confidence that in
this God will continue to be faithful
Thank you all so much
Thank you for your continues prayers for us. May God
bless you all in this week to come.
Love
Rossouw-clan
