Rich and Ronda Dolan

I finally have a computer to replace the one that was stolen, so I have good intentions of getting back to my routine of blogging every few days. The first picture is of Rebekah and Emily, before Rebekah left. I put this picture in because Emily just had a stoke and is in ICU in Bangkok. Please pray for her. She is a wonderful Christian woman who teaches English at Partners In Progress, and is a great example and encouragement to all around. The next pictures is of some ox carts on the highway to Siem Reap. They do kind of hold up the traffic, but I love them! I took the picture of the sky as the clouds were moving in and the sun was shining though. I am so grateful to God for the beauty that He puts in our lives daily - if we will just take the time to look. And of course, my sweet boys are the other picture. All are now back in the the US. We are truly grateful for your support and allowing them to come see us. They certainly liven up things! And the khmers enjoyed their v

I gave you just a little bit of information when the Aggies for Christ were here. Here are a few pictures, and I will put on more later, of some of what they did. The first picture is a couple of the girls with some of the orphanage girls in their room. I don't know if you can see or not, but there are 2 sets of bunkbeds in each room. The 2nd picture is some of the Aggies, Rich and some of our students along with the kids at TNT, where the orphanage is. They feed a lot of kids there with the Nutrition program, not just those at the orphanage. The other group of Aggies and the other half of our students went to another couple villages with the Nutrition truck. The last picture is the kids standing in line for food. A lot of sweet souls to be won for the Lord! As for us now, our street is paved now past us, so after 5 days, hopefully we can get our car out of the garage. Since there are motodopes (moto taxis) and tuk tuks all over, transportation is not a problem, but not near

Really...I haven't forgotten. Tomorrow is our final in Level 3 language so I really need to review A LOT! Mostly grammar in this level, so not fun. Rich and I have even discussed taking it again even if we pass so that we have it down really well; we'll see. So, in the meantime, know that we love you all and think of you, even if we don't update often. Since we got to enjoy our kids, we have gotten behind, language wise and need to spend some extra time. So, here is a picture of Rich and our boys with the students and Tawn. The students enjoyed our boys as well, and I think it was good for the khmers to see our family interact as none of the missionary families that have ever been here have their kids with them. Well, I need to study. But I'll get back to you soon. Much love, Ronda

We have been so busy and had so much fun. As you know, Rebekah left on May 21st; the 2nd picture is her and some of the girls here. Then we took the boys to Siem Reap. The other 2 pictures are of that trip. It was great to have all my kids at home. Then on May 27th, the Aggies for Christ group came in. I'll share pictures of them later. It was good to meet them and the khmers loved them being here as well. It was especially great to see Robert Brown, one of our kids from Broken Arrow among the group. The khmers fixed dinner for them on the 27th and then I fixed dinner for everyone (about 40 people) on Wed and Thursday evening. Our landlord gave them his personal story of living through the Khmer Rouge era and the terribleness of that time. Friday, the Aggies attended chapel with our students while we took Jason and Reuben to the airport. We hated to see them leave. Then , I took the Aggies to Toul Sleng, the high school that the Khmer Rouge converted into their torture
