We met with the church in Saang, a little village where 2 of our graduates, Sovann and Sokna, live and work. The house in the picture, where the church meets, is the house that Try (another one of our graduates) and Sokna grew up in. Their mother as well as Sovann and Sokna live here now. Downstairs is where they have Bible and English class (in the background of this picture). Here is one of the new Christians leading part of the worship service. Sovann has done a great job of having the boys help during the service. The 4 boys on the right side of the picture all had a part.
There are just boys playing along the street. As you can tell from the other pictures, there is quite a number of kids who come for English and Bible class at Sovann and Sokna's house. A few blogs back is picture of Sovann and Sokna with the store that they have started at their house. She wanted to do this so that she could be at the house to participate with the lessons as well.
This picture was taken during the service and shows some of the kids. The girls in the window look like they are in jail, but actually it was the only place left to stand and be able to see! They actually are standing inside the classroom.
This is Try, giving the Bible lesson. Try works with the University congregation in Phnom Penh and there were 2 vans full of us from that congregation who went out to encourage the people here.
We had a wonderful meeting. We also ate together before returning to Phnom Penh. I hope the church there as encouraged by us, as we were by them.
