Last team update

Here is the last update from the team blog...

The Power of Prayer

Today is our last day, our final moments in Cambodia. The week was filled with God’s amazing power, fond memories of the ministries we’ve served with, and many tearful goodbyes.


Throughout our time in Siem Reap we have been asking God for us to be witnesses to His miracle power. He chose the last week to reveal His mighty Hand in big ways and small.

One night the team was in the downtown area and the guest house van’s battery died. The van had been having problems all day. So, the team prayed in Jesus’ name and the van started! Everyone cheered and thanked God for His answer – even Som, the guest house owner.

Another miracle happened when Jeff, Justice and Levi were on their regular ministry walk around the village. This is a time where they just go where the Spirit leads. A woman approached Jeff and motioned that she had a pain on the side of her face. Jeff prayed several times, but the woman’s face was still sore. Jeff then called Justice over and when the two of them prayed, the woman was healed!

The next day, Jeff showed them the Jesus film and she and her family accepted Jesus. We pray that her choice will be truly a life-changing experience!

At Sophy’s church, KK gave the final message there encouraging the people to have hope! The children, who have been practicing the hula to “Shout to the Lord” for the past three weeks gave a performance of the dance.

After the service, Sophy asked if we could pray for a 15-year-old boy who has had back pains for the past three years. Our team laid hands on him and prayed and God took away the pain! Amazing!

We all said goodbye to the prison ministry, the village, PCL, Mustard Seed, and finally, our family at the guest house. It has been an honor and privilege to work here in Siem Reap for the past six weeks. There will always be a part of each of us left in Cambodia and we all hope that we can come back to visit one day.

I can’t believe that our adventure is coming to an end. Soon our team will disband and walk the paths God has chosen for each of us. But no matter how far away we all are, we will forever be known as Team Siem Reap!!
