Good evening you all
Moving is almost done and this week we will be done
and into our little place. Went there a few times this weekend and tried to
pack out things and sort them out. Will most properly be a long time still
before we can call it home. If I look at all the wood lying around, I cannot
but wonder how in the world I got there??
Anton was really sick this last week but after 2
visits to the doctor he is doing much better, thank you, Lord. One more thing
he had to do by himself. We thank the Lord that he is getting more friends and
that life is making sense in school.
While writing this letter, my friend Emily phoned and
informed me that their son Eli got hold of some keys, thought it would be a
nice snack, and ate it. Needless to say, it was time to bring him down to Siem
Reap. Jared did it in record time, and the doctors at Kanta Bopha did an
amazing job getting the keys out of his stomach. Please pray for the days ahead
as his throat will be a bit sore and pray for Mum and Dad to get over the shock
of dealing with stuff like that, here where things can get wrong very quickly. Update:
This morning the little man is out and enjoying some ice cream cause a sore
throat ask for that type of meds. Praise God he is well.
I met up with an old friend, Ottonya. We have known
each other for a very long time, and she is working for Ywam here in Siem Reap.
She is not doing well. For a long time now, she has been under the weather, and
the doctors cannot figure out what is wrong with her. I advised her to go to
Thailand for a better checkup. Pray for her as she is struggling health-wise.
Ouma Paula is saying that she is just very weak but
like the person she is, never complain. Please pray for her as she is dealing
with a lot of pain due to a broken rib.
The great news is that the small school in the jungle
started. They are sending pictures daily to show the students in the class. Dim
went there to also use it for worship. We are glad that they now have a place
to do those things that are needed. Luckily we are not in on the number of
students but one thing is for sure: some kids want to learn. Pray as this place
is starting to make a stand for Jesus and that this will be a beacon of Hope to
people around.
Some news from Ettiene:
This evening we had the joy of celebrating
Thanksgiving with some friends! Our hearts are so grateful for God’s goodness,
especially looking back at the last few months. We are overwhelmed by God’s
goodness in keeping my dad so strong throughout treatment, keeping him healthy,
and shrinking the cancer. Thank you for praying for our family and for my dad!
We really appreciate your love. Like the friends who broke through the roof to
bring their paralyzed friend to Jesus, we want to say thank you for carrying
our family in faith and prayer.
My dad is recovering well from his
treatment this past Thursday. He is feeling a bit nauseous and quite fatigued.
Please continue to pray for his body to fight the cancer well and for his liver
inflammation to go down.
Thank you very much for praying with us.
Love
Rossouw-clan
