Whatever Lord : Monday night prayers 26 July 2021

Medical to the remote

This Blog is all about the work of God. Nothing we do is without the knowledge of our Father. He is the soul provider for everything we do.

We are Mordegai, Toinette, Suzaan, Gideon, and Anton Rossouw from Namibia-Africa. . This Blog is all about our lives here in Cambodia while Suzaan works in South Africa. We are real Farmers from Africa and we love life and what it has to offer and enjoy it day by day.

Mordegai travels to remote villages, doing much needed medical work , where no other doctors go, with local pastors.

Gideon is no longer with us but Anton is studying in Malaysia. Toinette joins FGC Community Link Cambodia to the villages close by, teaching local children in an after school setting and also women about Health Issues in a village setting.

We consider us Asians as we live such a long time in Asia, eating rice as a staple food and not meat......

Our motto in life comes from a dear friend:

With common sense and God we
can accomplish a lot

Monday night prayers 26 July 2021

Good Evening dear family and friends,

This week we've kept our cellphones near, just waiting for news of Jean, Mordegai's older brother. He is currently in the ICU with Covid pneumonia and fighting. Please continue to pray. The whole week, I kept on remembering Psalm 46: 11 "Be still and know that I am God" and it just helped so much when praying for our brother, family, and friends. Almost daily we receive news of someone we knew in Namibia and South Africa who has passed away from Covid or still fighting.

Here in Siem Reap the foreigners could get Covid Vaccine for 3 days only. Long queues, lots of miscommunication, and a few times back and forth, but we received it eventually. At one stage, we were told had to wait at least 3 hours for the next numbers to be handed out. Me and Gideon just found a partly shady spot and sat down (Mordegai ran off to go buy a coffee of course). Some others threw tantrums. Then 20 minutes later one of the officials came to me and said, we can go in, no need to wait. We were so thankful. All this was very stressful for Gideon, but he was very brave and we are so proud of him.

The commune leader of the village where we have the online classes and small church contacted our NGO asking for help with the families in this commune who are under quarantine. So FGC community link were able to help more families by handing out food packs. We are so thankful for this opportunity because this is a great way for us to build relationships with the commune leader and the families.

Great time for stress release is when I take the boys on a bike trip through the big lake near our house. This time it was very wet and we got full of mud but the boys enjoyed it like dad. I try to bring them regularly as screen time is all they do, so a nice ride is good for the soul and afterwards we enjoy some local food at a small eatery, just what the doctor ordered.
