Women's Night and CBI Women Students

Image
On Saturday night, we finally had another Women's night.  Since it has been awhile since we have met, we had a Bunco night and enjoyed pizza and plenty of fellowship. Khemrin's mom and grandmother were at CBI, so they also joined in.  They weren't too fond of the pizza but they really enjoyed the Bunco game!  We only had 21 women all together, but those that were there had a good time.  I intended to get a picture of everyone at the end, but I forgot.

Before COVID, Kimsroeun would take a carload of our students to a village one weekend a month to help the church and teach and preach.  This is the view from our table facing the other direction.  Kimsroeun made sure to tell us that we should sit out there and enjoy the river. As for COVID, we have been living life just like normal.  The only w
