The days events were pretty straightforward. We went to church this morning and then went to eat at the City Kat restaurant. We had a fascinating discussion with one of the other missionaries about some of the work in Cambodia, ponderings on the political climate (past and present) and an interesting story about an old lady who retired from being a missionary, then went back to Cambodia to start a mission for AIDS orphans and widows.

In the afternoon, Mike & I helped find and buy another bass guitar, this time for the Siem Reap church.
We then went to a multi-church youth gathering, which was interesting to watch and see the differences and similarities between our youth and Cambodian Youth.
Tonight during our last group gathering, one of the Australians shared that they went to a Vietnamese church this morning. Tan Tan, one of the girls we were a little worried about earlier in the week were very excited to see them. She had also invited a Khmer student from English Camp to visit her church and he was there too. This was neat to see as the Khmer\Vietnamese issues were a real concern early in the week.
I will not be blogging again until Tuesday morning (Monday night Nebraska time) as Mike Lewis, Max, Josh and I are flying up to Siem Rea to see Angkor Wat.
Thanks for reading. Two more days and we'll be on the plane back home.

I have seen photos of Ankor Wat. It does look interesting. Thanks for the updates. (Talked with James last night, too, so feel quite blessed!) Safe travels.
