Among the many special people the Lord allows us to minister to are the AIDS patients. The government provincial hospital here where I work as a volunteer physician has a large program for people living with HIV/AIDS. Generally patients have appointments to come every two months. Monday afternoon is the pediatric clinic and Tuesday through Friday afternoons are for the adults. They come from our city of Koh Kong and from distant towns. Medical care is provided for their various illnesses and also medicine is given for treating the HIV virus. Although there is no cure, at least the illness can be suppressed as long as one stays on the treatment. It is so nice to see when patients gain weight and strength and are able to carry on normal living activities. But it is sad when they are hospitalized with complications or come too late. Christ offers hope to people. Eternal life is for anyone who will accept it. What joy to see those who have their lives changed by the power of Christ. Please pray for me as I work in this area.
This week Hubert will taking his manuscripts to Phnom Penh for the printer. One is a revised commentary on the book of Matthew and the other is a revised Disciples In Deed book. Please pray that they would be printed well and used of God to help many Cambodians know God and His Word better.
