<strong>Moriel</strong> Australia – Continued<br />
to leave the grandchildren.<br />
After I arrived back from New Zealand<br />
I rang Dave and was most concerned, as he<br />
sounded dreadful, so after dragging the news<br />
out of him I decided it would be quite wrong<br />
for him to come to Australia. I am including<br />
his letter to all the readers.<br />
Dear Aussie Friends<br />
I really wanted to be with you this May<br />
and set about planning an itinerary that would<br />
take me to see the babes at the mission in the<br />
Philippines and then a tour that would take me<br />
to see beloved friends in Sydney, Melbourne,<br />
Tasmania, and Rockhampton & Caloundra. I<br />
really wanted to share with you from God’s<br />
Word and the vision we have for the Western<br />
Cape, however at this last minute we have<br />
been hindered in our attempt.<br />
Firstly to my ongoing health issues. My<br />
Neuropathy is getting worse and unless I have<br />
a strict and specific diet I struggle to keep it<br />
under control. This is difficult to do whilst<br />
traveling. <strong>The</strong> affect on my eyesight is also a<br />
factor in this.<br />
Secondly as you know our dear brother<br />
and friend Nigel (from <strong>Moriel</strong> New Zealand)<br />
went to be with the Lord recently. This has<br />
meant that Marg has had real pressure upon<br />
her, sorting out New Zealand’s change in administration,<br />
running two offices etc. After<br />
talking to Marg we came to the consensus that<br />
if we are going to do this for the Lord, it must<br />
be done well and in good order, and taking<br />
into consideration all the issues at hand and<br />
so after much thought and prayer we decided<br />
to hold back the tour for a little while more.<br />
I do hope you understand and that you will<br />
continue to uphold us in prayer over the next<br />
few months in the hope that God will shine<br />
His face upon us in our situations.<br />
Again I am so disappointed as I do not like<br />
to cancel anything in ministry, but at the same<br />
time I have the Lord’s peace that this is the<br />
right thing to do. In Christ, Dave<br />
For those that are not familiar with “Neuropathy”<br />
I am not a medico but it causes Dave<br />
to loose the feeling in his legs and hands and<br />
as such he has difficulty walking and quite<br />
often stumbles. Of course he has no feeling<br />
in his hands, and with his diabetes it is having<br />
further problems with his eyesight. Please<br />
keep him in your prayers.<br />
Jacob’s Australian/New Zealand Tour<br />
All the details are on the flyer included<br />
with this issue. Please try and get along to at<br />
least one meeting. If you require any further<br />
details please do not hesitate to contact me<br />
here at the office.<br />
Health Problems: I am very aware of the<br />
health issues firstly with Jacob and then Dave,<br />
David Lister & myself. I keep thinking to<br />
myself that <strong>Moriel</strong> must be doing something<br />
right as Satan is certainly having a “go”<br />
BUT we serve a Glorious/Victorious Lord<br />
and as Jacob has been heard to say on many<br />
occasions “I have read the end of the Book<br />
and we WIN!” Praise the Lord, In Christ<br />

N E W S FROM AROUND THE WORLD<br />
Blessings in Jesus.<br />
In the monthly missions report from <strong>The</strong> Philippines renovations on the feeing room<br />
or our rubbiish dump children are complete and the new floor will allow us to do bible<br />
seminars for Philippino pastors. Geoff O’Toole from <strong>Moriel</strong> Japan branch will be conducting<br />
a seminar in the New Testament for Philippino pastors. It will be our first on our own<br />
premises. Praise Jesus!<br />
On a down note, one of our children - little Mary Mae has been struck by Denguey<br />
fever. It is an ugly mosquito born infection that is all to prevelant especially in poor areas.<br />
Please pray for Mary Mae who is hospitlized (her photo in hospital is the one on the bottom<br />
of the column). Denguey fever is a terrible disease especially when it infects little<br />
children and please pray that no more of our kids get infected.<br />
In Jesus,<br />

Dear Bro Jacob and Bro. David,<br />
Greeting you in Jesus name.<br />
I attach some photos of finished flooring on extension of feeding room. It is now ready<br />
to use on Midrash day by Bro. Geoff. Another photo of a kid(mary mae) which we brought<br />
yesterday to the Hospital because of dengue. Let us continue pray for Her.<br />
Thank you very much.<br />
In Christ,<br />
