Day one was spent catching up on sleep and fighting jet lag. A visit to Buddhist Temple ruins in Siem Reap helped us to understand the spiritual darkness in which the Khmer people live. Even now in Poipet we are hearing monks praying over a loud speaker, blessing a new temple.
Saturday morning was spent in orientation for the language exchange camp that starts on Monday. Saturday afternoon was spent traveling from Siem Reap to Poipet by bus where we are currently writing this blog post.
We have been able to enjoy some home cooked meals by Hin, Pastor Pearum's wife. The venture in to this new food has treated us well so far and we are enjoying the building of relationships with our brothers and sisters here in Cambodia.
The team continues to grow closer, encouraging each other as we share this new experience together. Please continue praying for health and stamina! Please also pray for Scott as he prepares for and then preaches at church on Sunday.

Continuing to pray for the team...good health, safety, & energy. Scott, are you preaching about the vine? ;-)
ReplyDelete(This is Scott) I did preach about the vine. It went well. We went to another church in the afternoon, and I was asked to give a short message - so I preached the same thing, just shortened it. :)
ReplyDeleteThose vines are known to travel!!! :) Praying for you all and excited to follow your blog and hear more details upon your return!
