A bit late this time, sorry for that. I missed my bus on the way back as it was a bit late, but not to worry, had a nice room in a small guesthouse in Kampong Tmao. Aircon always comes in very handy on hot days like we've got here now. I was so tired coming back from the outreach, it was a nice break to stay the night over and catch a bus the following morning.
We had a great outreach with a bunch of Americans from
California. I think we were around 12 people invading the jungle and had fun
while bringing medical supplies, mosquito nets plus the Gospel to the people
around the mountain of Phnom Chi. Off course the kids got candies and balloons
and some volleyballs, thanks to the WOL life guys on our team.
The road was a bit rough but at least this time around
we made it out in good timing. The people accept all foreigners with such
grace, and everywhere we came, we were greeted with the most respect. Khmer
people are such beautiful people and when they get used to you, they even have
more grace. Being in the jungle makes me feel at home.
We came back the next morning to Rum Jopon and Curtis
and his crew with Dim, were leading the church. It is such a blessing to see
how this small congregation blesses everyone around them. It is heartwarming to
see the people so excited for the Gospel. Continue to pray for them as they
seek the will of God in their lives.
Thank you for praying for Ouma Paula. She passed away quietly
last week. This Saturday will be her Funeral in Swakopmund. Please pray for the
Calitz family as this is a big loss for all of us. Pray for Toinette as she
will be here while her brothers will be there. It is hard for us to part with
such a remarkable person but we know that heaven is richer by having her here
now. I am sure she is dancing with Gideon right now.
Pray for Anton’s visa process. He is giving in the
renewal of his Malaysian visa today and we pray that everything will go smoothly.
“” Here’s another way to put it: You’re
here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret
to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I
make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket,
do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a
hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives.
By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous
Father in heaven. Matt 5:16 MSG
Thank you for praying with us
