Church this morning was at the Asia's Hope Christian School outside of the capital city. All of the children from the 4 homes in Prek Eng attend church together there. Today they offered a medical clinic for the neighborhood following the morning service. They estimated that about 30 neighbors came to the service and about sixty were seen in the clinic. From 11 am until a little after 2 pm three nurses and several other volunteers helped the people that had come. I was a pill counter:) We spent two hours at Prek Eng 4 - this was one of the homes started by Momemtum last year.
We went to lunch at around 3:00 to a Khmer restaurant and tried several dishes and soups. Home to the guesthouse for one hour and then back to the school for a party. The kids wanted chicken wings and soda. So that was the kid meal followed by an hour plus of crazy dancing. I only tried one dance - I still have the elephant feet. I just can't get the swelling down.
We have the chance to sleep in tomorrow morning and we are all anxious to do that before we start another busy day. Tomorrow will be a hard day emotionally with visits to the Killing Fields and to the museum that describes the Cambodian genocide.
It was a good day. God is working in the lives of these kids as evidenced by their singing, their sharing, their entire countenance.

I will pay someone on your team for pictures of you dancing! :) SO sad to hear that your feet are still hurting you! We will continue to pray.
We spent some time this afternoon with Ginny. She needed some computer help....and cleaning help. We got her up and running. She was able to give me all of the Feather's information that I will leave here for you.
Went to Grace this morning. They announced a HUGE answer to pray that they are $29,000 positive in the 10-11 budget. They were able to pay all of Dave's life insurance, all bills, have no past-due items outstanding, and are starting the year in the black. Augy said this was truly an answer to prayer and a true miracle.
Well.....we are off to watch our Sunday evening shows...which Duey has taped for you! :) Love you and miss you.
Hi Judy,
Love hearing about your adventures. We are in Winona enjoying the prophecy conference and time with family. Mom & Dad rode out with us on Sunday. This afternoon we are all going on a tour of the Quilt Gardens...17 gigantic flower gardens planted in a patchwork design in 7 different Amish communities between Winona and Elkhart. We will end up at Fred & Candy's to hear their outdoor band concert this evening. We'll miss some of the prophecy sessions tonight, but it will be fun to support Fred & Candy. We continue to pray for you and your team (and your feet!) Can't wait to see pictures! Hugs, Don & Donna
I saw Holly at church on Sunday and she told me about your swollen feet. I've been praying for quick relief for you so that you can fully enjoy your time in Cambodia. It sounds like you are doing a variety of things - You are in our prayers!
