We've arrived in Cambodia to begin month 7. Wow, how time flies when you're having fun. It's so hard to believe there are only 4 months left in this race, and thanks to family and friends I'm sully funded and able to finish. The Lord has provided and I'm ever so grateful.
After just one day of ministry I'm certain I'll love it here. We are staying at a YWAM base in Kompang Cham, along the Mekong River. Our contact, Maricel, is from the Philippines and so is her delicious cooking! On Wednesday, we met our English students. They range from 13-23 years old. Then on Thursday morning we visited a village to bring food and give baths to the children. Once again I find myself in love with these kiddos!
This little guy is the youngest of 7. His older brother brought him down for a bath and then I took him back to his mother becasue he was pretty hungry. The soup we made for the other kids wasn't going to work for this guy.
Since our contact is from the Philippines, it felt like a smaller feeding from when we were there. Same soup, different children. Although some of them reminded us of the kids we met in Tondo. This little one is Tess's Stephanie. She wouldn't leave her side the moment she crawled into Tess's arms. We had such a great time playing with the kids. One of the girls had tears when she saw we were leaving. Maricel, our contact, said that had never happened before. I know tears will be in my eyes on the last day we spend with these children.
