Welcome to February. This year is steaming ahead and
things are happening fast. At the moment we got the pleasure of having our good
friends, Greg, Marci, Shannon and Marie here with us. Greg was with me that
faithful night when I made the horrible crash, 12 years ago. We were talking
about that night in length again as the anniversary is coming up in a few days.
By God’s grace I can say that He saved my life that night.
Greg preached in church in ROL and it was a wonderful
time listening to him talking about Forgiveness. Something we all fall short
off in our lives. So needed in today’s environment with wars and protest around
us. Toinette could show off the small children to them in Mighty Kids. They
were so surprise to find the Joshua generation kids naming the Bible books in
the New Testament from front to back and backwards. They totally put us all to
shame. Marci reckons the kids in the West can come and learn from these kids in
Cambodia about being joyful and so willing to learn new things. Pray with us
for the staff of Good Shepherd Rol as they are making a difference in children’s
lives.
We said goodbye to our beloved friends Jared, Emily
and Eli Reid. They served in AOC up in Stung Treng now for around 11 years and
feel the Lord is calling them back to NZ. We are sad to see them going, even if
we did not visit much it always was so reassuring that they are in country and
not to far away from us. Beautiful people and really wonderful friends is all I
can say. They will be miss dearly. Always sad and emotional to say goodbye to
long term friends. Pray for them as they will be in a new transition back home
and for fitting into their new culture.
We are waiting for Anton to come in 1 week on 7
February. It is his official trimester break and even he is looking forward to
it. Off course mom and dad cannot wait to have their sweetheart at home again.
Pray for Anton as he needs to finish up a lot of work in this week. I will be
going to Ratanakiri on Wednesday and be back on Friday for a quick visit to my
friend with a bad infection. Pray for safe travelling and for open hearts and
minds when I deal with the patient and his neighbor who got Leprosy.
We are totally blessed beyond measure, is all I can
say. Thanks for praying with us and always making even time to read this
letter.
Love
Rossouw-clan
