Monday was a wonderful day!

This first picture is our new students. Left to right is: Rena, Sovan, Pisay, Lee, and Rahn.
On Monday, Pisay and Rahn were baptized. Both had been studying with several of the other students as well as friends.
Like all of our other students, these 5 are so very sweet and seem to be working and studying hard. The girls are staying at Tawn's sister's house as she has 3 girls of her own.
Keep all of our students in your prayers as they study. Much love, Ronda

6 New Students

Image
 I wanted to let you know that we received 6 new students from Battambang province at the school yesterday.  (There is another one but he was sick so didn't come now) They have all taken their 12th grade exit exam but haven't received the results.  Rich thought it would be good for them to come for this short 2 week class to get a feel for the school.  At CBI, they have to read a lot more and the studying is more intense than what they do in high school.  If their motivation is only to come to Phnom Penh because the big city is 'cool', they likely won't stick it out.   Starting September 15th, the school will be on break for 2 weeks for the Pchum Benh Holiday.  So they will be with us for 2 weeks and then go home for 2 weeks.  We hope they will all choose to come back and study with us. All of these new students come from Sokun and Soklee's village or area.  Some of them are already Christians which is exciting!  It is great to see ...

Back home in Cambodia.

We are back home in Cambodia now.  We had a wonderful trip to the US! But, before we left, we spent the last weekend in a village with Borey, one of our graduates, and his wife, Phaney and their children.  He started this congregation by  himself.  After awhile, he converted his mom.  But for a long time, he didn't have any other people responding.   Now you can see that they have a thriving congregation due to his perseverance. There are several Christians in Phnom Penh now that came from this village.  They now live in the city and are an encouragement to the church here. This was the Bible class on Sunday, May 25th. This is some of the teenagers that hung around with us that Borey teaches. Please keep Borey and Phaney in your prayers as they continue to work.   Not in this picture is their new baby daughter that wasn't even a month old. His sons that are standing with us in the picture are Ratanak and Noah.  Their daughter's name...

CBI Graduation - May 16, 2025

Image
On Wednesday and Thursday, the 14th and 15th, we had Graduates Meetings.  We spent the morning studying with graduates and current students on the Cost of Following Christ.   Wednesday afternoon, they played a Bible game.  And Wednesday night, they meet with the class at the Phnom Penh Church of Christ. Thursday night, we ate pizza and played Uno.  They enjoy all getting together and getting to visit and play and just have fun fellowship. Friday night, we had 2 of our students graduate from CBI.  Both had older siblings who already graduated. Phalim is from Battambang.  Both he and his older sister came because of Sokun and Soklee, our graduates that work in their village.   Sroy is from Kompong Cham province.  Her older sister, Srang is one of our graduates.   Sroy's family couldn't attend as Srang is due with her first baby very soon. Rich always has a CBI graduate give the talk.  He asks the graduates who has touched th...
