 Keith and Lorna McDonald have been married
since he was in medical school
at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada fifty years ago. He is an
endocrinologist and she is the anaccountant who made his practice run.
Both have been Christians since childhood, but the Lord didn't take
full control of their lives until they retired in 2000.
That
year, Keith decided, with Lorna's encouragement, to go to Cambodia on a
medical mission. He has been there three times, each time more amazed
at Christ's work in even the most afflicted countries. The Holy Spirit
is active there and it shows in the worship and the heroism of
believers.
No one in Cambodia has suffered more injustice than
its children, especially its girls. Sex trafficing is all too common,
and the suffering it causes is incalcuable
Keith was moved to write his novel, A Time to Mourn, A Time to Dance,
after he visited a Christian school which rescued young people and
taught them, not only literacy, but traditional Khmer dance set to
Christian themes. The contrast between the ugliness that had brought
the performers to this point in their lives and the increadible beauty
of their dance was a perect demonstration of God's work. |
