Almost forgot to write to you guys. We are supposed
to be in the cool season but it’s nice and hot here. Tonight we have nice rain
and must say that will make sleeping a bit easier. It cools down the dust and
the smell in the air is even better, or may I say it depends where you
are,hahaha, some places in Asia can really stink when it rains.
We cannot wait for Suzaan to be back from Vietnam again.
She is enjoying herself a lot and we keep updated several times a day. Such a
blessing to have her close-by.
I will be out tomorrow to Kampong tom while Toinette
and the boys will stay here. Need to go and do some medical outreach to the
people in the villages. Pray for Manoj and me as we will travel by bikes into
the jungle.
Mordegai’s mum was in the hospital again this week
due to shortness of breath. Praise God that they finally sorted her out and she
will get a Pacemaker in January, that will help her a lot. Continue to pray for
good health as she is released from hospital today. She needs to rest, but she
is like me, and we do not know that word!!.
My good friend McKenzie was in the ICU again due to
seizures. Not sure you remember but quite a while ago we asked for prayer for
this angel. She had a massive brain seizure and miraculously survived. Due to the
damaged done, she now gets more seizures. Here is an update on her:
Friends we’d appreciate prayer for my
daughter McKenzie Capka in Sacred Heart ICU with a serious seizure. She was
seizing so much they put her in a medically induced coma and hope to slowly
pull her out of it tomorrow afternoon. Trusting
Jesus with our very special girl... thank you
Hi Friends! Good news: McKenzie Capka is
out of ICU and doing much better. She will spend one more day here with the
amazing Docs & Nurses at Sacred Heart and if all goes well can come home in
the morning. Your prayers are powerful and effective and all your expressions
of care and concern appreciated so much. We all feel your love! These seizures
are no fun but this girl is strong... God bless you all!
An old friend of ours, Melissa Davey is
currently on the Mercy Ship in Guinea. It is incredible following her stories
to see people get transformed for the better. Real live changing stories.
Follow her on Fb or https://beautyandheartache.blogspot.com/
Melissa Davey is in Conakry, Guinea.
I have not seen facial tumors in my home
country like I have seen here in West Africa working with Mercy Ships. It’s
always a discussion if these tumors are more prevalent here or is it due to
lack of access to affordable treatment and skilled surgical care that they grow
larger and more visible here. It is most likely the latter to be true. ..
Isatu has a benign slow growing bone
tumor of her lower jaw called an Ameloblastoma. She is a strong and resilient
woman who now bravely shows her face to the world sharing her story and
returning to care for her family tumor free. ..
The MaxFacs program runs all year long
on the ship, and it never grows old to see Isatu and so many others see
themselves transformed and tumor free after surgery ❤️

It is this time of the year with Christmas all over
town. All the displays are starting to get in shape and believe you me, these
guys pull out all the stops. Sad that nobody or really few, they say Cambodia has
2% Christians, know what Christmas is really about. Listening to my friend Abraham preaching last
night, encourage me to go out with a new zeal and let people know who this
Christ is. We life in a world that is so political correct that we totally lose
sight of the One that came so we can have freedom from all of this.
Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters,
stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of
the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 1
Corinthians 15:58
