Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits—

For years we have desired to open our own High School on our own premises. It appears that this will become a reality when the new school year begins in January. We have teachers lined up but still need a Principal, as well as a Principal for our Primary School. Please pray with us for two principals.

who forgives all your sins

This is our confidence. Our children and adults rest in the blessing of Jesus forgiveness and they love to praise Him.  Their relationship with Jesus is all that ultimately counts.  It is far more important than health, education, food, shelter or wealth.

and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and
crowns you with love and compassion.

Nobody from any Place of Rescue has been infected with Covid. All adults and children over 5 yrs have been vaccinated. In Cambodia 84% of the people are vaccinated. Daily new infections are only around 220.  The country is opening up little by little.

On August 2, Marie had a lobectomy in a hospital in Bangkok, to remove 1/3 of her right lung. The surgery was successful and she is gaining strength. She needs to undergo 4 sessions of chemo in Royal Hospital, Phnom Penh,  just to be sure there are no cancer cells still lurking around unnoticed.

who satisfies your desires with good things. so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

We continue to be amazed at the generous donations we continually receive from groups of Cambodians. How grateful we are for all His benefits during the past months. Thousands of dollars worth of supplies have come to us unsolicited. At Sunday morning worship services, offerings are taken and shared with the poor….. and the Lord keeps rewarding us.

The Lord works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed

At Place of Rescue 2 in Mongkol Borey, we have received 18 new children in recent months. At Place of Rescue 1, we recently received another adult woman coping with AIDS. She is getting good care and nourishment now. She has a 12 year old daughter but this child is with another organization and prefers to stay where she is for now. We also received a family consisting of a Gramma and a Mother who have AIDS and two little children.
