A whole week of holiday in the middle of the year
can be a hard thing to deal with especially if you have 2 teenagers at home.
Between fixing stuff you need to keep them busy as well. I guess that is why we
will stand in front one day when they give out medals for bravery, hahaha.
I will be on the road again to Stung Treng on Thursday
for a huge party - country celebration - 25 years Asian Outreach Cambodia.
Please pray for safety on the roads again.It will be good to catch up with old
friends and time to make new ones. Its times like this that we can relax and
just enjoy God’s provision for our friends in Stung Treng.
Toinette speaking:
The Mighty Kids program every Sunday morning
is still going strong. There are about 50+ children that come very faithfully
and it is such a joy seeing them worshipping Jesus. The public school year
starts in November, so only a few weeks holiday left. This week the River of
Life church is receiving a team from Manilla and with their help we will
conduct a Vacation Bible School with the children. The staff, especially JunMar
and the boys from MOD (Men of Dignity) is working very hard at the new office
to get everything ready to start the next MOD program. The sponsored students
as well as the staff will all also stay at the office.
Praise the Lord Andrew Brunson has been reports leased.
Thank you for your prayers!!! Yesterday
was a very emotional day of ups and down but the end result... Andrew was
released from prison and is flying with Norine to America to join their kids.
Andrew has paid an amazing price... a great sacrifice. And I believe we will
see even greater things because of his obedient heart and love for Jesus. We
love you Andrew and Norine! https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45842735
Deon Botha is currently at home resting and trying
to get better day by day. Sonja, his wife say that his body is hurting a lot as
he can only lay on his back as his wound still have clips in it.(it will be
remove tomorrow) His body went through
huge trauma with all the surgery and chemo. Pray for healing.
We praise God that the small church in Kabal Domrey
is working really hard to fix the church. With the help of some donors they are
able to build a small wall around the church and remove the wood in order to
get rid of all the termites. It is still a ways to go but they are really
working fast. We praise God that we can help them to restore their little
church again.
Galatians 5:13-15 ( The Message ) It is
absolutely clear that God has called you to a free life. Just make sure that
you don’t use this freedom as an excuse to do whatever you want to do and destroy
your freedom. Rather, use your freedom to serve one another in love; that’s how
freedom grows. For everything we know about God’s Word is summed up in a single
sentence: Love others as you love yourself. That’s an act of true freedom. If
you bite and ravage each other, watch out—in no time at all you will be
annihilating each other, and where will your precious freedom be then?
As love becomes our way of life, we must constantly
be reminded of His strength in us. Christianity is not an addition to our
lives, it is a new life to live. When we let go of the world and find our
identity as children of God, His Spirit grows the character of Christ in our
lives. Ephesians 2:10 explains that we were “created in Christ Jesus to do good
works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” As we continue this walk in
the Spirit, let’s begin next week’s journey into compassion with this idea in
mind: I am God’s, and there’s work He has for me to do!
We thank you all for praying for us, May God’s love
pour over you all in this week to come.
Love
Rossouw-clan
