Weekend trip to Singapore

Image
The Lavender Road Church of Christ in Singapore has been working with us to help our students here in Phnom Penh. They are wonderful Christian people with warm caring hearts to do God's work. They invited us to come to Singapore this past weekend. Rich taught the youth Saturday afternoon and then preaching and taught class on Sunday morning. We thoroughly our time there. We got to be reaquainted with friends that have come to Cambodia as well as meet many new friends in that congregation. There were fantastic hosts! I told Rich we were going to have to fast after all we ate there! It was wonderful to meet with the church there. God continually blesses us in wonderful ways. Much love, Ronda

Aggies enjoying noodles before leaving Cambodia

One Sunday, the Aggies went to a couple of the village to meet Christians there. Rich and I were unable to go as we had obligations already in Phnom Penh. One night, we decided to get some noodles off of the noodle cart. We really made the ladies night by ordering 15 orders of noodles. So there is a picture of her making our noodles and of the Aggies enjoying them. The first picture is of their last night in Phnom Penh. We had the CBI preaching students over as well for supper and a devo. I think the Aggies enjoyed their time here and I know that we as well as the students really enjoyed getting to spend some time with them. Love, Ronda

Aggies in Phnom Penh

While the Aggies were here, as I explained earlier, they taught English using the Bible every day. These pictures are of a party and devotional that they had with all of their students. They also invited our preaching students and members of the church. Ronda

More of the island

While we were "retreating" on the island, we got the change to play, sing, swim, hike, etc. The Aggies and our Khmer students got to spend time together and know each other better. On the last night, the students did a skit of the Prodical son. One of these pictures is of Penh, who played the prodical son, hurding the pigs. I wish I would have gotten a better picture of their masks! Another one of the pictures is of Abigail, Amanda, and Rebekah with a dead jellyfish that was found on the beach. Thankfully, it was the only one we saw. This past weekend, we took the Aggies to Siem Reap to see Angkor Wat and the area there. Unfortunately, we had some car trouble - just out of Phnom Penh, we busted a belt and then had some additional problems, so we didn't get into Siem Reap until after midnight. I think they had a good time touring some of the temples and then going to the Cultural Village. We worshiped with the church in Siem Reap before returning to Phnom Penh on Sun
