Dear Pastor and Friends,

 

We are so grateful to you for praying for my wife.  We're glad of your deepest concern and care for the missionary you supported.

 

Grace was admitted in the Hospital for two days.  She was not supposed to stay that long but there was an accident during the DNC procedure. When the doctor is almost finished with the process she accidentally hit a part of the uterus and accidentally made a cut or a hole then, Grace started to bleed.  I was not inform that they gave her another shot of general anaesthesia to do what they call LAPAROSCOPIC CYSTICTOMY. She got in the operating room at 11:30 am until 2:30 pm. I was by myself those hours and wondering why it took them that long. I was shock when the doctor called me after and told me there was an accident and wants to explain the details. When I heard about an accident from her mouth, I try to control myself and ask the doctor if Grace is fine because that's what matters most that moment.  Thank God that the doctor is really honest what happened. They called another French Doctor to perform the said operation. I know that this is a big deal in your country where an individual is protected by certain laws. But, not here in Cambodia. Anyway, Above all what happened God is worthy of our praise and honor. God is good.

 

Now by God's Grace, Grace is recovering from her 3 cut wounds and we are out of the hospital now. We need to be back on Monday again to see the doctor.  Right now she's a little bit uncomfortable from her wounds, which reminds her of a baby girl that she longs for. Please continue to pray for her.

 

Thank you for your Love.

God bless you all

Dear Pastor and Friend,

 

At this moment, we are so thankful to the Lord of His provision to start the building construction. We started already filling the breaks, yet our materials needed were not completed yet.  Please continue to pray that God will provide the remaining needs to be meet.

 

Last week, I mention that my wife is 3 months pregnant. We known it as we had an occasion for check up in Bangkok last first week of August, but now she really needs your prayer as She experience some spotting or bleeding.  We do not know all the reasons. She is now in Phnom Penh for another check up.  Please pray for her.

 

Thank you and God bless you

Dear Pastors and friends,

 

Just this week we finished our vacation Bible school. There are 78 young children attended the program. During the activity, there are 10 children received the Lord Jesus Christ as there personal Saviour.  Indeed, your prayer was appreciated a lot.

 

Last month the Lord added to us a husband and wife to the church by transfer. This couple is a refugee in Indonesia during the Pol Pot's time.  They got saved and baptized there in a Baptist church in Medan. Five years ago after they came back from Indonesia, they are attending in a different church but it was a struggle for them, until such right timing they found out our church.  Before receiving these couple, we observed them for two months time. We found out there faithfulness and faith to Jesus is true.

 

A month, ago our construction and development in our property is going on.  We do appreciate if you will continue to pray for our needs on the building project.  At this time, we are half way finish.  We still need for a roofing that will cost as $1,000.  We thank the Lord to our members that do the work, which lessen our expenses.  Please continue to pray even for our church anniversary this November.

Also include my wife.  She is 3 month pregnant.

 

Thank you very much for your support and prayer.

God bless!

April-June

 

 

Dear Pastor and Church,

 

For the past few busy months, we’re able to overcome some adversaries and disappointments.  By God’s grace we still have the joy singing “Onward Christian soldier Marching up to war…” 

 

June is a joyful month as we see God’s provision for the project in the property.  There are three different individuals invested their penny for the development of the site.  God blessed us already with an initial amount that would stand as seed money to start the project.  At this situation, we decided to start to move yet Sanballat and Tobaih works too.  The Buddhist Priest and assistant in charge made an issue to close the public road that crosses on the middle of their temple.  They said, it was disturbing and unhonouring act upon the priest in crossing every now and then with vehicles. These will hinder our work! Yet the God of Nehemiah is so good.  I talked to the priest and the in charge about the issue personally.  I really thank the Lord that the problem we’re resolved and it also pave the privilege to talk to them what is my belief and share God’s way of Salvation as well.  As conversation goes well, they were insisting that we do the same counsel. On that case, I was able to explain what Christianity is all about.  Praise the Lord and Glory to His name to all circumstances that cross on my way.

 

With regards to our ministry in the city proper, it is well and good.  My student in the institute is always doing their visitation everyday.  Children’s ministry is a huge challenged for us too as the other group haul the children with their bus.  We encounter a little decreased of our children due to that situation.  Please pray for this opportunity to procure vehicle for this purpose.   Our building program will start this month.  Please pray that we can get construction permit smoothly.

 

Thank you very much for your prayer and support through the year.  May the Lord continue to bind us to work together side by side.

 

In His Service,
