We have been trying to reach out to an indonesian fisherman who got caught in Australian waters for illegal fishing....he is from Riau....he got caught, and was brought to the detention centre in Darwin....and was detained....ready to be sent back to Indo....he actually went into the Australian waters by only a few cms...or meters, not sure....and he was already caught by the australian authorities....he was sharing that the reason he went into the aussie waters is due to the fact that he was gonna get married when he got back after that fishing trip....and due to financial constraints...he really wanted to earn a bit more to at least have a decent wedding when he gets back.....unfortunately, he was caught....and detained....to cut long story short....he was in the detention centre....he was captain of the ship by the way....apparently, his crew under him....had harboured bad thoughts towards him....coz they were caught....due to the decision he made....so, to take revenge on him....one of them actually boiled a hot pot of cooking oil....and when he was sleeping, poured the boiling oil over his head.....so, his face and limbs and parts of his upper body were badly burnt by the oil....he was sent to hospital...and he managed to wake up in the midst of it...thank god!!! else he wouldnt be here today...and he couldnt go back to indo...was given PR status here...had to tell his mum that he couldnt go back....and felt so bad coz his mum thought that life here was too good that he didnt want to go back to them anymore....etc....he didnt tell his mum and gf what happened....he was physically in pain, and emotionally too...its sad....somehow, he got transferred to perth....we got to know him through our pastor....and visited him a few times....and then lately started visiting him again...brought him to an indo church....and he accepted christ!!!!! what a miracle!!!! he goes to the buddhist temple nearly everyday to pray........etc....but....he accepted christ last week....praise god!!!! he is gonna share his testimony again in church this week....its really good.......he said he never cried in his whole life after growing up....but when he stepped into the church.....he was sobbing.....

anyway, nearly end of lunch break.....have a good weekend all!!!!!! God bless!!!!!
