God is Answering Prayer

 Give thanks for the Lord for the great things He is doing, and continue in prayer.

-         In spite of several trips between our hotel and the priniter, Hubert was able to get another book printed (Basics for New Believers) and more copies made of a previous book (Disciples in Deed). Both of these are in Khmer. Pray for God to use them in teaching people more of His Word.

-          The Koh Kong Provincial Health Department and Ministry of Health in Phnom Penh have granted my permission to continue working in medicine. It was amazing to see how fast the final papers came through. Pray for God to use me in the medical work to share the good news of Jesus Christ.

 

-          God worked out so many details during our trip to Phnom Penh this week. It is good to be home again in Koh Kong. Pray for Hubert’s English classes and my classes (Bible, English, and piano).

-       K. is feeling better now. He is able to sit up again some in his wheel chair.

-          C. is facing decisions in her life. Pray for her to do the right things.

-          L. is planning to work on a team in Thailand for the next 2 weeks. Ask the Lord to use him there, and guard his ice cream shop here while he is away.

Helping Together by Prayer

Although it was a windy morning, L., his father, Hubert and I went in their little fishing boat to the town where our first clinic had been held on June 4. We asked there how to find the mountain town of the lady who had accepted Christ during the clinic. They directed us across the estuary and there we pulled on shore. Next was a hike quite a distance to reach a few scattered houses. Praise God for letting us meet with T. and give her a Bible. We talked about first steps as a Christian. She is rejoicing in belonging to the Lord and knowing she is on her way to heaven. Thank you for praying for our trip. We thank God that the wind did not make too many waves and that we did not get rained on.  Please keep praying for T. to grow and for others in her town to be saved.

Praise God that R.’s arm has healed well from his fractured elbow that we asked for prayer about. His parents took him to Phnom Penh to see an orthopedic doctor. The specialist decided not to do surgery. God intervened and healed him. Please pray for K., a Christian here in Koh Kong who is paraplegic. His physical condition is worsening, but his faith in God is strong. He continues to read His Bible and sing. We would love to see his mother and siblings accept the Lord too.

Hubert is working on getting more copies of the Disciples in Deed book printed in Phnom Penh and a new book on Basics for New Believers also in Khmer language. Pray that God will help in getting these printed well. Pray for wisdom as he will be traveling to Phnom Penh soon.

Mobile Medical Clinics

Praise God for N.’s baptism on Sunday in the estuary. Pray that God would protect her and keep her growing in Him.

Praise God for T. who accepted Christ on Monday. Please pray that she would grow in Christ. Pray that we can visit her again to teach her.  She was among the patients and families at one of our mobile clinics at an island town. It had been an adventure getting to the town via fishing boat in the rain. But the people gathered in the school room and listened well to the preaching of the gospel morning and afternoon. Many sick received medical care. We thank God for the medical team from the States and the Cambodian Christians witnessing. God provided the needed translators. Tuesday and Wednesday were also busy clinics in other towns. On Thursday after driving three hours on muddy, difficult roads, we reached a stream too deep to ford and had to turn back without doing a clinic in that mountain town. Pray for God to continue to work in hearts of people touched during these two weeks of special outreach that there may be more fruit for eternity. The USA part of the team has been a great blessing to us. They are on their way traveling back to the States right now.

Please pray for my papers for renewal of permission to do medical work in Koh Kong. The papers are on the way to the Ministry of Health in Phnom Penh now.

Praise God for the blog being accessible again.
