How is it already the middle of October?

I seriously can’t believe it is month 2. It feels like yesterday I left New York for Georgia to go to launch yet here I am.

I feel like I haven’t updated many on what we have been doing here in Cambodia throughout month 1 and continuing through month 2.

So! The first week that we were here in Cambodia my team and I created an awesome mural at a Buddhist school here in Battambang. It was such a blessing that we could do that and bring the light of Jesus into that area. I am blessed.

Continuing on from there, week 2 came and we were given a kind of permeant ministry that we would be doing for the remainder of our time here. 

So my team and I get the awesome opportunity to go to Dewy Elite international school to create more murals in the playground area for kids! 

From there our team splits up and everyone goes to different ministries but my specific ministry I have been teaching English to children at Ezra School.

It all has been such an awesome experience to build relationships with people who are from here. Everyone I have met is so amazing. Their hearts are so beautiful and honestly they all have a mind that wants to learn and to me that is so beautiful.

For month 2 we have about 3 weeks left here in Cambodia. That truly blows my mind a lot. 

The days go so slow but the weeks blow by which really confuses me.

So for the next 3 weeks my team and I will continue to paint murals at Dewy School and a little bit of a change to our afternoon ministry. My entire team is now teaching at Ezra school instead of us splitting up everyday which is really so awesome! I am so excited for that!

So we will continue both of those ministries and I truthfully am so excited for all that the Lord will do through the next 3 weeks here.

It is a blessing to be able to the Lord’s literal hands and feet in this country and I can’t wait for what the Lord has in store.

Also I just want to add so this past month and the month we are in now have been all squad months. What that means is all 45 of us have been living together the past month and this month and it has been awesome and yet crazy. 

It is so cool is learn how to live in community with people who live and do things different from me.

Meals in our house are so fun and I am so thankful for our host family who graciously feeds all 45 of us every meal. 

Also it is pretty funny to see everyone squeeze to sit at the tables for a meal.

Honestly month one was rad and the Lord just taught me so much through that month and I am excited to see how rad he will be in the month to come!
