July 16th

We made it to Phnom Penh safely on Friday morning. We had a great time of debriefing and thanking God for all that he did during our time in Cambodia. God has truly been good to us! We leave for the airport this morning. We fly from Phnom Penh to Hong Kong, then Hong Kong to New York. We should arrive back in Lancaster late Saturday/early Sunday morning. Keep praying!

Last English Classes

We can hardly believe how fast the last week of teaching english has flown by! We are saying goodbye to our students and have been so blessed by their great attitudes and hard work. The team is going well. We have also been taking time to pray at different locations around Phnom Penh and getting more of God's heart for the people. Tomorrow (Saturday) will be a busy day of cleaning/packing/debriefing before we transition to Siem Reap for 2 days. God is good!

Teaching English and Focused Prayer

Its amazing how fast this week is going! The teams at both sites are doing well and really enjoying interacting with the students. When we are not teaching, the staff have been taking us to see their ministries. Several of us went yesterday to see HIV/AIDS education classes and also a childrens program that uses puppets to teach children about malaria prevention. It was great to see our students in their ministry roles! We took time this morning to pray for the World Relief staff and also been taking time to pray at different locations around the city. We are continually grateful for your prayers!

His glory among the nations...

Last evening we took time as a team to share a highlight of our time so far. One thing that came up repeatedly was the time we had to worship with the World Relief staff each morning. Singing together in both English and Khmer was an incredible experience. The students we have are very eager to learn and we all have been blessed by their enthusiasm. The staff will be taking us out in smaller groups to see the ministries they are responsible for in the coming days. We are continually thankful for great health and we all have adjusted well to the time change. God is good.

We made it!

Hey Everyone! Sorry about the delayed communication! I am pleased to report we all arrived safely in Cambodia with all of our luggage. We arrived on time on Saturday morning and were met by World Relief staff who took us to where we are staying in Phnom Penh. Saturday and Sunday were filled with cultural orientation, church, ESL prep, and getting over jet lag. We started teaching english today, with a mix of small classes and one on one tutoring. We are very thankful for great health so far and are excited for how God will work over the next two weeks. Thank you for your continued prayers!

On behalf of the team,

Brandyn
