I am loving my time here in Cambodia so far. We are living out in a small village teaching English and ministering to the community. Our days are full, but the rewards are great. Keep these people in your prayers, as well as my team and the 2 other teams working here this month. God is working through the hearts of the people of Cambodia. Once again, I am seeing just how big God is and how unlimited He is in the world. This year God is showing me more than I could ever imagine, and I still have 6.5 months to go!
