The sun is shining, tuk tuks are humming, it's a good time to be in Siem Reap!
The week began with a shopping spree as we prepared for a photo project for the village. We bought toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, combs, and laundry soap for the families. Each student in the class also got a school uniform: a white shirt and blue shorts or skirt. Joanne and Renee did an amazing job purchasing, organizing the supplies and sizing all the children!
When our van pulled up on picture day it was so beautiful to see all the children wearing their new clothes and the mothers of the village in new outfits. Each child received an 8x10 family and class photo. We anticipate that these pictures will be a special gift for them because they don't have any photos of themselves.
The team also spent some time at Sophy's ministry. Some members helped with the English Corner while others went on home visitations.
Jeff created his own ministry by biking about 30 minutes to Angkor Wat and shared about Jesus to some security guards. He then took Jimmy and Jonathan along on another expedition where they connected with the same people. This opened up a possible ministry opportunity to the village where one of the guards live.
Next week marks the beginning of the half-way mark of our time in Siem Reap. So much to do, so little time!
