Rich and Ronda Dolan

I was really trying to blog every week or at least every other week.  How are we now at the end of the month and my last blog was September 7th?  So...catching you up... After Kemchhouy's baptism, Rich decided to teach a chapel lesson on some of the basics about baptism as a reminder.  I was listening, thinking how blessed these kids are to get to listen to Rich.  He explains things so clearly and plainly.  God has put us in just the right place for Rich to use the gifts God has given him to serve.     I had to make a doctor run to Bangkok, Thailand (and let me remind you that is like flying from Tulsa to Dallas).  All is well.   Since I was coming anyway, Rich made the trip over as well for my birthday.  And, of course, was invited to preach at the Soi Somprasong 4 congregation. I thought these flowers were beautiful.  My friend, Gratdae, made this bouquet.  We got to meet with her and her husband, Bhee on Saturday.  Bhee is one of the ministers at Soi 4.  We enjoy getting a few m

  Much rejoicing!!!  Kemchhouy was baptized!!   Kemchhouy is one of our recent graduates.  He is from Battambang province.  Alone with finishing at CBI, and therefore having a bachelor's degree in Bible, he also graduated with a Electrical Engineering degree and is currently doing an internship. Kemchhouy has a special place in my heart because the entire time he was at CBI, he studied English with me.  He is very smart, kind, and just a great guy!  I was so sad when he graduated from CBI without being baptized.  We talked about it and he said the he knew the information but just needed to think more about it.  I told him that I admired him for counting the cost of being a Christian.  No one in his family are Christians.  Of course, Rich and Khemrin also talked to him many times. He is a special young man.  I really wish you all could get to know him.  Please pray for him to have courage and that his faith might grow.  Pray that he might be a mighty servant of the Lord all his life
