Better Late than Never

My blogging skills are wretched! I'm so sorry. Consequently, I'm not totally sure where to start this blog.

My days became pretty routine once we got back from Phnom Penh. I was busy, sure, but at least it was routine! :) I taught English at the learning center, I taught math at the children's home, and I helped in what other random ways I could. The summer has been great. So, I'll just hit the highlights!

I love Khmer people! I have built amazing relationships with the kids at the children's home and they have forever impacted my heart. Today was my last day with them and I'm slightly heartbroken. I have seen them almost every day for the past 10 weeks! I will miss their smiling faces. I've also been able to build great relationship with the older kids at the children's home! It has been so sweet. I pray that my time here and the relationships I built with these kids would be used to strengthen their faith and their relationship with the Lord!
I spend a lot of time at Common Grounds. The food is great (as proven by my massive tab I just paid last night) but the employees are even greater! Some of them are strong believers and some are still figuring things out. But what a great time I've had with them all! Many hours of laughing and joking around with them have passed in the 2 months I've spent here!
Julie (the director here in Siem Reap) has become a sweet friend. I'm so thankful for her stability and constant encouragement in my life!
Solin is making a great recovery! After the accident he had some bleeding on his brain. He stayed in the hospital for a few days and then released after his brain seemed to be healing itself. He's looking great and feeling better and better every day. Thank Jesus!!

Please pray that God will continue to work in the hearts of the people I have met here. The country is in need of strong Khmer believers to change the foundations of the country. Pray that a great harvest of souls will come in Cambodia!

I pray that a return to Cambodia is in my future. I am almost sure it is. I'm sad to leave, but excited for what the future holds! I trust that our Almighty Father knows what's best, so I'll continue to seek His guidance. Please pray for me as I return to Thailand for a quick trip and then make my way back across to the great state of Texas!

Love you all!
