The second time
I remember my personal question from last April after returning from Vietnam.What will my step be to honor Him? And yes, I must return to the same locations to witness and work for Him and Them.
April 2010 before landing in Vietnam I was concerned how would I react to the Vietnamese people and the soil I had hated so much, I was really really scared and found it very hard to breathe and it wasn't the hot temperature we would be encountering shortly.
Before bedtime on day one I could feel their love, the only missing part was me and that didn't take long. I found it wasn't half as hard to love as to hate.
At the beginning of the clinic work I realized that I may return again, never realizing so soon. Why now and not later? I don't understand, so I'll wait on Him for answers.
Again, why am I going to Vietnam? One thing for sure, I did sign on with VWAM this time to be simple, just do it again as we did last April. Well, that isn't what has happened so far. Each e-mail I receive has a surprise request that I can't do, but with each surprise I answer yes because all things are possible with God. Being involved with VWAM has created so many opportunities for me to serve Him. My heart is directed to missions not just in Vietnam but here in this Church, community and everywhere in between, missions is everyday life, everywhere we go and all we do all the time. As for Vietnam, well, that is where Vietnam and it's people are and God tells us to go minister to them. Us means all of us, and we can all go in prayer and encouragement joining the winning team.
I do question myself. Am I for real? Am I who I say I am? Yes God reveals Himself, it isn't me and yes God is real and He is who He said he is.

Why Me? Why Vietnam?
Now is the time to look to the future as I have returned home. What did I do to honor God? Was my actions witnessing Christ like or did I display sour fruit that they will reject? This questions I was sure I could answer. No I cannot answer these questions only HE can .
Much financial resources are being used continuing medical healing through the future.
Ministry through example of actions and words, Minestry through medical missions is still at work in Vietnam through the underground church pastors.
As I remember those hands reaching to all with love asking for love in return,
Was it medical issues that brought them to meet VWAM team? Probably so but, that also opened
the door of hope to many. Most patients were invited through church pastors.
There are many success stories, each person can share a special occurance for them, each indivudial left Vietnam with more than they arrived with, as for myself, my experiences was much more than I imiganized. My cup was filled many times as there were nothing more personal and rewarding than being a witness to a young lady who accepted Christ as her Savior (this action began in 1968 before she was born) Does this sound familier to another Book? Jeremiah 1:5
Although this mission is complete as I look back I know it has only begun. Was flesh or spirit displayed?
We must remember it wasn't about the people of Vietnam or Vets With A Mission it was honoring
God and in building His Kingdom.
At present I must listen, what will be my next oppurnity to step out for Him? What can I do physically and spiritually that displays actions that honors or adds to God's Kingdom?
This has been the most rewarding move in my life my relationship, His invitation, listen and hear His message, believe that I can adjust my resources and time and obey for the experience He had provided.
Thanks to all for who chose fellowship through the prayer chain.
Why did I go to Vietnam? After so many years filled with anger for those people I did no know or understand and they had forgiven me long ago. I was silent and closed myself into something I didn't understand as with all things it only escelated over time. This I would not share with my family but, inside something had to take place. Finally it was time for answers, the only person who could help me I never asked but, He delivered the answer, my answer was yes I will go, not even considering what I may encounter upon arrival.
Arrival was a very unique feeling, no negative feelings,thoughts or fears everything was filled with :LOVE and smiles. As the days came and passed my bond was true I loved those people as they loved me. Why did I go? My answers are many, first to honor God, remember He delivered the answer and I never ask the question. Second missions are designed for healing. God intended to heal all wounds for all.
Many wounds were attended, first, medical/dental care were offered to many childern and adults. Mission members gave their time and resources because of ther love for God and people,Much financial resources are being used continuing medical healing through the future.

Thoughts from the day...and prayer focus for Friday...
As I was strolling on the beach this afternoon sand crabs and tub boats let me reflect back to memories from the past
just tw
Tub boat pushing out to sea - same as refurages
Construction everywhere - success or failure?
o thoughts were entered to the present as I have always wondered really why were we here.one thing I do recall
we were not prepared as training wasn't about them, their love and smiles only that everyone was very bad, how wrong
they were. America and all could learn much from Vietemese love and wonderful smiles. As progress is certain my prayer is
only take the good and leave bad as thay are want to be like Americans, that scares me.
Sand crab diggin in for cover - they wish we were not here they are searching for protection
Depression from the past?
Opression from the past, present and future
Will ecomonic growing cause more distance between those we came to serve or can the follow and grow also?
Was seeds planted to produce Great Fruit?
Will anyone water those seeds ?
Will they be protected? Yes
AS one seed begins to grow it SHALL connect and be example by example and more will follow
This I am positive for we all are here because we were chosen
This isn't my opinion.
Why am I here? (crazy question)
Will all these smiles and love remaim?
Medical, physicall or financal it is all love only if presented with love.
These questions will remain. Until ?
Now as I prepare to leave I can always remember for one time in my life this was not me it was through HIM.

LOVE IS THE SAME EVERWHERE
We have arrived at Danang's China Beach, Resort. another very long day we start early Devotion this morning was led by Emily Simmons all the devotions are well prepared some devotions begin many years ago , could these devotions be connected to the past? If in doubt see Jeremiah 29:11( the plan for you ) For me 1968-69 wasn't good at best (until now) at that time I was very homesick, scared, total darkness and total silance and alone not all the time but each time was more than enough now I'm aware why all those things were to be.
Picutured is Debbie needle in hand Jeff with one of his special boys

A letter from a new friend - what a blessing!
Dear Mr.JC
How are you today? How about your trip? Is it funny? I guess you enjoy the time going around so much. this morning I took part in the interview of recruiting volunteers for Hue festival in June. I hope to be chosen because this may be my last chance to join. After that, I went to Water Puppetry Theater to join with my friend and children at New Life Language Center. You know, most of the children come from rich families, they are raised in good conditions with beautiful clothes, good health, care from parents, etc. When i see them, suddenly i think of other children who i have met at orphanages, who are from poor families. They are very different. I wish to do something to balance the difference, or at least help poor children to have a chance to go to school, good health, and good care. We do have organizations like UNICEF, but we still cannot reach every corner of life. I know, it's not somebody's fault, i just wish to do more. Here is a video i wish you to see. I see so much value of what I have now. I don't have a motor bike, How about the people who event don't have a bicycle? I don't have beautiful clothes, how about the ones who don't have clothes to wear?. I'm luckier than many many people. My difficulty is nothing to others', but they still survive,and overcome, so why can't I? It's time for me to stop complaining for what i don't have.
Mr.JC, I do miss you. Hope to see you again.
Best regards
Huyen

NEW PLACES NEW FACES
Well guess what I was wrong again there is internet connection here as I
attempt to better my spelling typing or just slow down. My fingers will not maintain the speed I think and here it is really fast.
It took two and one half hours to travel up here, this afternoon we were able to visit a location where many Americans lost their life we also visited the location where bridge was destroyed that seperated the North from South,
This location and touring the DMZ has no significant meaning to me like
the LONG BINH, BIEN HOA and the Saigon area where the Christina Noble Foundation is located. Since visiting CNF admiring Christinas calling and I put THAT SHIRT ON so many of this group want more information concerning her dream (which she cannot say Devine calling in Vietnam)
Wanna hear highlights from this morning meeting well, it lasted
two hours those in attendance were the present party, former (VC)viet cong solders (NVA) north viet nam regular solders (VWAM) Vets with a Mission) a one person from some other americal organization and
you wouldn't believe this nut this type can create problems for everyone
I already miss those little kids (we play good together) Oh I have my own hair bow, maybe I show you it's .very very special WANNA SEE IT???
Now I have another room person Dave V. we both talk a bit
Did I tell you concerning the picture at Mr. Cu resturant (almost famous phographer) I was prompted to move to the other side by Bob (one of the founders) that seated my beside Dr. Simmons at that exact moment we both looked at he pictures on the wall
at that exact time we looked at each other saying "we saw her in the clinic
today" after talking with Mr Cu it was true he took that picture a couple months ago how awsom and I have a copy
Bad part now I don't remember how to add pictures to blog I try the link
thing and it ask http who is that?

Clinic work completed
Yes the clinic will be vacant until Vets with a Missions returns we have delivered so much physical
STUFF, sow many many seeds and have Harvested.
As I ponder tonight I know there is so much more to do here. All was needed now we must wait for more Harvest.
We have sown many seeds and watered them well the rest I cannot control .
Seems very awkward to be in a position out of control
but being out of control is most likely when we are in His control.
I reflect back To December 2008 when stepping out wasn't a option only a command will I fall or will I
climb, today I am very very sure I am going in the correct direction sure wish everyone would come
with us.
Today very long day we returned to hotel after dark.still need to pack, shower we travel tomarrow
Oh, the Vets are invited to a high level meeting tomarrow morning at the police station with the Vietemese police and former emeny soldiers, not sure how I will fill face to face in the same room with people who tried to kill each other years ago, please let me forgive them and myself. I must forgive inorder to hill.
I almost created real confusion today at the clinic as I would go into croud and play with the children also bring them candy gifts and more hair bows those little fellows almost pulled or pushed me to the ground many times sure had a good time with them
Today I delivered a special gift for a special need. The gift, was an obidence gift sent from one of His messangers

LOVE SAME SAME part 2
Concerning the childs leg yes, many contacts, were made all attempts were exhausted for medical service the team does not know of any treatment from any country to help this childs condition BUT don't give up yet someones phone is probly ringing as you read this.
Many other services have been provided several heart surgerys eyes as well as ?? other services. Several wheel chairs ,eye glasses, also x-ray and scans for diognosis.
Today amoung the many smiles and thank you the most important may be spoken without words I love to communicate thay way
I pray my speechless words have such a positive connection and the people young and old will want some
One more day at the clinic I wonder what He has in store for me tomarrow
I ate at the resturant here in hotel tonight only cost 300.300 dong
money/dong I haven't a clue as I purchase I hold out the dong and tell then to pick all that is need or all they want. I'm sure all has been correct
Guess what or who gets to hold all those babies ME DO
We get started early as this clinic it is farther from the hotel we leave here at 7:00 am also we travel back to town for lunch.
The Vietemise people take a short nap at lunch anyway that gives us travel time, at the first clinic one day our lunch was delivered.
I wasn't present for team meeting/devotion this morning since Jeffs
flight ticket has to be printed from this e-mail address
Oh someone or all call Jeff Sunday morning don't weant him to miss church service as for me promise I see you May 2
Get ready I may want to talk a bit in case you like to know yes I may have some pictures also with each picture maybe a story after this experience now and from the past it will be necessary to combine them together for completeness.
Old experiences never last they can all be erased or written over as the present was yesterdays future what will my future be what will your future be or how long will our present last. The past that is what matters most what we have done with our past will determing our future so today present, and into the future I have committed obidence to listen hear and follow the direction given that is my committment to Him
Each day we all draw closer by sharing out personal experience.
Many other services have been provided several heart surgerys eyes as well as ?? other services. Several wheel chairs ,eye glasses, also x-ray and scans for diognosis.

I pray my speechless words have such a positive connection and the people young and old will want some
One more day at the clinic I wonder what He has in store for me tomarrow
I ate at the resturant here in hotel tonight only cost 300.300 dong
money/dong I haven't a clue as I purchase I hold out the dong and tell then to pick all that is need or all they want. I'm sure all has been correct
Guess what or who gets to hold all those babies ME DO
We get started early as this clinic it is farther from the hotel we leave here at 7:00 am also we travel back to town for lunch.
The Vietemise people take a short nap at lunch anyway that gives us travel time, at the first clinic one day our lunch was delivered.
I wasn't present for team meeting/devotion this morning since Jeffs
flight ticket has to be printed from this e-mail address
Oh someone or all call Jeff Sunday morning don't weant him to miss church service as for me promise I see you May 2
Get ready I may want to talk a bit in case you like to know yes I may have some pictures also with each picture maybe a story after this experience now and from the past it will be necessary to combine them together for completeness.
Old experiences never last they can all be erased or written over as the present was yesterdays future what will my future be what will your future be or how long will our present last. The past that is what matters most what we have done with our past will determing our future so today present, and into the future I have committed obidence to listen hear and follow the direction given that is my committment to Him
Each day we all draw closer by sharing out personal experience.
LOVE SAME SAME
Not only was I picked by Him for this trip but each on of us were, it all fits. can't understand why it took so
long to see.
Today not so good with emotions 18 month child has broken leg since birth Dr. Simmons had patient exrayed 2 different times. There is no medical help availabe in Vietnam for this child, the flesh has absorbed the bone, we shed many tears as we embraced with the parent explaining the options for the child.
I have given 100's hair bows to the children and some mothers young and old, most of the times I wear bows
so they remove them smiling and we put those bows in their hair. I'm not crazy doing this I only want to be involved with happiness, love and smiles.
After the descussion with the parents I was able to put two bows in mothers hair and recieved a huge hug. This family has little future for a healthy child. But for today there was a huge smile with laughter at least for a few seconds. I fill those parents understood that our compation was really a way to communicate as we needed to share our feelings (u no) As I mentioned earlier how much can a jar hold I'm not concerned what will come out of this jar
I'm thinking you like pictures. I got um, see can I get u some
Oh how great He is
in His protection

Vietemese resturant this evening
Jeffs last day and it was T total Vietemese food. Ten of the team ate at Vietemese restuarnt including some translators we were honored to have them as guides. That wasn't enough, on to the desert place several blocks up the stree, we set on little small stools on sidewalk, ordered from many pots (they were setting on what looked like a sheet of plywood) probably minimun 24 pots it was very delicious I didn't use and ice all others did. Jeff was afraid to eat there he is leaving in the morning and food can cause stomach problems.
After eating I noticed they were washing dishes beside the building with 2 dish pans setting where rain drops fall from roof. Tomarrow we will know?????????
