Parents and Grandbaby

On January 26th my parents, Loren and Penny Hollingsworth, came to Phnom Penh from Thailand.  As many of you know, they have been working in Thailand since Sept. 1973.  Now, they spend half of the year in Alaska and half on this side of the world.  They typically are in Thailand for the months of November through January.  Then they come here for the month of February before returning to Thailand for another month.

This year, Dad is teaching I and II Thessalonians at CBI.  On top of that, he is teaching Sacrificial Systems (and how it relates to Jesus and us as Christians) in the evenings, 3 nights a week, for any of the Christians who want to come. 
 This is Dad, Rich and me, and Mom at the school gate.  We are grateful that they are able to come every year and spend time with us, as well as share the gospel and their Christian examples to the Christians here.  This is their 12th year to come to Cambodia. They started coming one year before we moved here.


On another note, one of our new students, Rotanak, was called home.  His brother got in a serious motorcycle accident and has to have someone with him 24 hours a day.  Rotanak's parents called him to come home and sit with his brother.  The thought is that in a month, he can return to the school.

Please pray for his brother as well as for Rotanak; that he will have a heart to want to return to the school.
 Exciting new for us!  Our 6th grandchild was born February 8th. 

Micah Paul is, of course, incredibly cute!  Both he and Mom are doing well.

May he be the mighty man of God that his namesakes were.
Here is the family.  Reuben, Ezra, Micah, and Emily.
I am blessed to be able to go in a week to help them (and play with sweet grandsons) for a couple weeks.

How magnificent are God's bountiful blessings! 

Much love,
Ronda

Loren Hollingsworth

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
