The Lord has made so many things for our enjoyment and pleasure. In Sudan it is sometimes hard to find the beauty, especially in the dry and dusty season. But this weekend, while we were in Rumbek, we were reminded of the Lord’s amazing creation. This is my new friend I made in Rumbek. She’s a 3 month old chimpanzee called Sara that was rescued and being returned to a sanctuary in Uganda. She was so cute in her nappy and when we got ready to leave she ran after me and clung to my leg….so cute!! And Billy is a mischievous deer that sneaks up behind you and try to butt you in the bottom when you’re not looking! Cheeky fella!!

This is Yar!
“So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.” Hebrews 13:6
Yar is a young girl of 10 years that came to our clinic back in November. She had been hit by a bicycle and her arm was broken. When it started to swell some relatives wanted to bring her to our medical clinic but others refused. After some time the area became so painful they decised to cut open the wounded area and much pus came out. She was then taken to a clinic, less equipped than ours and over 100 miles away. While she was there the bone in her shoulder jutted through the open wound. She was now left with a gapping hole and an exposed bone. Eventually her father brought her to us. How to help this child seemed very unlikely on our premises and we began to look for ways to take her outside of Sudan for possible surgery. During this time of praying and finding a suitabe place, Yar continued to come to our clinic for dressing of the open wound. During one of the dressing changes, Dr. Tom was removing the old dressing which had become a bit stubborn and stuck to the exposed bone. When he pulled off the dressing the bone cleanly popped out of Yar’s arm. It was completely removed, just like that. Yar’s wound today has completely healed and both our doctor’s feel any further treatment for her is not necessary. She has almost full movement of her arm and is in no pain at all. As we had money for her surgery gifted by individuals, we have decided to pay for her school tuition, books and uniform instead. She often comes and visits us on the compound and our kids love having friends over to play and especially when they have been our patients. This is Yar having lunch with our family and pictured with Hannah.
Sabet Leaves for USA!
It’s always strange and tough when Daddy leaves for a time. Today alone we have experienced several scorpions even though we go months without seeing any!! The scorpion crusher leaves and out they all come!
Sabet will be in USA for 5 weeks sharing the vision and calling the Lord has given our family and our ministry. We pray many will be encouraged, blessed, challenged and used by the Lord to further the kingdom work here in Sudan.
Please pray for the prayer walk, a fundraising event to be held on October 23rd. Pray the Lord’s favor upon it and guidance as Sabet’s leads us to be in prayer over Sudan’s future. Go to our website for more information and to get involved. www.indeedandtruth.org.
My Bathroom!
I have lived in Tonj for over 10 years and this month I have been blessed with a ‘flushing’ toilet!! And a shower and a bath tub!! With 17 full-time people living in the compound, when we have teams, the kids and I sometimes can’t get into the shower. So we made the decision to convert the storeroom attached to our bedroom, into a bathroom. No more taking baths with our swimsuits on in the kiddie pool in the garden with everyone watching us. No more getting outside to the communul bathroom and then realizing you’ve forgotten your soap! No more traipsing to spend a penny in the middle of the night. It’s so wonderful, a real bathroom.
