What a week!! Sjoe I am tired of just cleaning and
fixing everything to get to normal again. Being away from home makes things
worse but we are on top of it now. School started and both the boys are into it.
Toinette was away the whole last week on a retreat with FGC Community Link, in
Phnom Penh. They had a great time with team bonding. As they started here
again, lots of new challenges arise and we ask for wisdom in all the decisions
that need to be made.
I will be on the road tomorrow to go to Kampong Tom
and into the jungle. Looking forward to get on the bike and go and help people
where it’s needed. Pray for safe journey and wisdom as I need to go and talk
and ask for help on our little project. In 2 weeks’ time a team from South East
Asia Hub, from South Africa will be here and we are looking forward to their
visit. Pray for them as they go around Asia and visit different missionaries
from SA.
Quintin is awaiting his tests in order to see about
his cancer count. Pray for encouragement in this difficult time.
Mordegai’s mum is doing well and we praise the Lord
that He saved her once more.
My friend Deon is battling his aftereffects of the
chemo and already is working again. They got good pain relievers for him and he
say that he can sleep at night. Now that is a praise report right there.
Continue to pray for Fe. They will visit here in
Cambodia soon and we are waiting to see them again and hear from the horse’s
mouth how she is doing.

Journey Update
HURT but CRAWLING TO THE SAFE GROUND!
I had my 18th Chemo today (in
Manila)..DONE! 4 more to go! Praise God for His overflowing Grace.
Last night, Joshua our youngest son was
brought to the hospital. He had high fever that didn't subside...this fever was
on and off last week. He was brought to their school doctor for check up. The
fever was gone but it came back with stomach pain and cough. Noel decided to
bring him to the hospital. Tested for suspected Dengue Fever and x-rayed. The
result came NEGATIVE of DENGUE but POSITIVE of PNEUMONIA!
As a Mom, I feel sad not being there by
Joshua's side because I was fighting my own battle! Yet, I know that God is
able to do immeasurably more than we could ask or imagine and our Fight has
been won!
Thank you Slochin Gragas for the comfort
of your presence with me plus the buffet lunch... Also for Sis Arlene Bactol
Villacastin for the help, Rose Frange for the visit...for family n church
friends who cared n prayed...Thank You!
UPDATE on Joshua's condition.
He was confined at Iloilo Mission
Hospital for 5days now. Praise God that he is negative of Dengue. His Pneumonia
and UTI were treated with strong antibiotics. His medications were changed to
Oral starting yesterday and we hope to be discharged today.
What can we say then, but THANK YOU
LORD! For His sustaining grace...for His abundant love...His provision and His
eternal salvation. We will give thanks to the Lord in all circumstances for
this is God's will for us in Christ Jesus.
Thank you to those who have been praying
for us. God bless you all!
Very wish words from a dear friend. Thanks Curt.
They will know we are Christians by our
love.
Not by our political affiliations. Not
by our race, creed, color, nationality or biases. Not by our chosen
denomination. Not by who we endorse. Not by the message on our t-shirts. Or
even the words we say.
And not by our Facebook posts.
But by our love.
They will know we are Christians by our
love.
‘By
this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.’ John
