Good Morning from Siem Reap. We had a fairly restful night. I got about 5 hours of sleep but poor Andy only got about 3. We were up early and ate breakfast all as a group. Then off to a local church for services in Cambodian. They translated enough of the service so that we could share in the songs (most of them) and understand the sermon. I really enjoyed it. We shared communion and I was so touched with the emotional connection in the room. Even though we are from opposite sides of the planet and dont understand each other fully, for sure, the communion today was as sincere and emotional for me as it would be at FRC.
We are staying at Smileys... As you can see by the picture. It is a nice Inn and better than I expected. Andy and I share a room and we have a bathroom with a shower. No hot water, but a shower is nice even cold!.... interestingly they dont have a shower stall, it is just a nozzle on the side of the wall and it sprays all over the toilet and everything... then down a drain in the corner.
We are regrouping now and heading to the orphanage here in Siem Reap. I am really looking forward to meeting the children.
Will be thinking of this post in church today here in North Carolina...and sharing with the family. May God move with you and in you today as you touch and are touched by the lives of His children.
