Louis and Huguette baptized, Ginger and Jesse visiting

 Louis and Huguette (and I am sure I am spelling their names wrong) have been visiting Cambodia
 this month.  They have just finished their first year at Sunset International Bible Institute in Lubbock, TX.  They are from Mexico.  They are visiting here to see if, when they are done with Sunset, they might like to be missionaries here.

After talking to Dan Wilson, they were not sure about their baptism, so decided to be baptized again.  We were fortunate to get to witness that wonderful event.


 After Louis was baptized, he baptized his wife, Huguette.  They both have such sweet hearts.  We have enjoyed getting to know them a bit while they are here.  Please pray for them as they return to their studies and seek God's guidance in the best place to serve.

 This is Dan Wilson.  He and his wife, Ravy have now been here for nearly 4 months.  He is teaching in the school, and, of course, is busy learning the Khmer language.

Here he is preaching at the University Church while Rich is translating.
We also got to enjoy a visit from Jesse Pope and Ginger Hull.
Ginger was here before for a short visit when her parents where here.  Her dad, Ray Hull, taught in the school for Rich.  She is in the process of moving from Phoenix to Tulsa.
Jesse is from York, Nebraska.  Both girls went through AIM (Adventures In Missions)in Lubbock, TX in the past.  They were just with us for a few days, as we were one of their many stops.

We leave here tomorrow (Thursday, the 18th) for our stateside trip.  We are so grateful to Veasna Tol, Dan Wilson, Dennis Welch, and Tim Brumfield for teaching at the school while we make the trip to see our sweet kids, our cute granddaughter, and all our other family and friends.

Hope to see many of you soon!
Ronda

As many of you know, my dad, Loren Hollingsworth, got to meet his Lord face to face on April 7th.  He fought the good fight and he finished the course.  Praise God for His perfect promises! The last blog I wrote said that my parents arrived in Phnom Penh the day before; that was Feb. 1st.  Dad was to teach for 2 weeks at CBI and then just have the other 2 weeks in Cambodia to rest, visit with us, and study for the next classes he was teaching in Thailand when they returned.  God had a better plan. Dad taught the first week at CBI.  Then Saturday, Feb. 10th, he had a series of mini strokes while we were out eating.  He ended up in ICU in Phnom Penh for 4 days and then back at our house for 5 days to make sure he could fly.  The doctor would only let him make the 1 hour flight to Thailand to see doctors there (instead of 30 plus hours of flying back to the US).   Dad, Mom and I came to Bangkok on Feb. 19th.  During the 3 1/2 weeks we were there, Dad was in the hospital 2 more times.  His

Our 40th anniversary trip

Image
 As many of you know, we don't do things like most people.  Ha!  On our 33rd wedding anniversary, 7 years ago, I asked Rich is we could go to Ronda, Spain for our 40th anniversary.  He said that sounded good.  We sent to the kids and told them that in 7 years, we are going to Spain.  They are welcome to come, but they had to pay their own way.   So, our 7 years of saving and planning paid off big time!  We had the absolute best trip!  The only thing that would have made it better is if Jason and his family could have also been there.  Randall had to miss the first week for work as well. So, Spain!  We played on beaches and in the ocean, saw castles, towers, cathedrals, mountains, national parks, arabian baths, roman bridges, mosques, ancient city walls, bullfighting rings and caves.  We hiked, played in the pool, rode in vans, buses, trains, ferries, cable cars and on camels.  We wondered all around little roads in many little towns and cities all over southern Spain, sometimes on

16 years!!!

Can you believe that today is the last day of our 16th year in Cambodia!!  To give our Broken Arrow friends some perspective, we were in Broken Arrow for 17 years.  It certainly has gone by fast. We cannot even begin to express to all of you how much you have meant to us for all these years.  To know that we had your love, prayers and support constantly has been refreshing and uplifting to us.  We realize that this is your work, and we just get to do the fun part and be the people on the ground. How amazing is our Almighty God that has allowed us to be here and do this work for 16 years.   We look forward to many more years, if that is His plan. Right now, Rich is trying to get 11 of our students finished with their courses by the end of January.  Due primarily to covid, the schedule is a mess!  When covid started, some of our kids were called home by their parents out of fear.  But we had 8 or 9 that were at the school, so Rich and Khemrin continued to teach.  Then, as time went on, s
