MII Around the World
Greetings to one and all,
We have spent two days relaxing in Siem Reap. Before arriving in Siem Reap we were in Sisophon. We had our last major concert with the our musicians. It was one of the most entertaining concerts for the reason that Proverb, Melanie, Daud, and the MII band did up-beat songs and songs that required crowd interaction. It was a very enjoyable time. Even Jim and myself found ourselves dancing behind the sound board on a stand that, Jim jokingly said 'we could do a gainer off of'' The following day we woke up early to have a rice distribution at the stage, where the night before we played our concert. The governor was in attendance so of course news crews were there. Later that night we actually saw ourselves on TV. It was pretty exciting. The medical clinic saw at least a hundred people in need of medical care. While waiting for the medical clinic to finish, the rest of the team counted and sorted the school uniforms. Still waiting for the clinic we helped pick up trash in the park where the stage was. That was a very humbling thing for us because it should we were even willing to pick up trash so that we may be able to impact the Cambodia people for Jesus. Later in the day we traveled to an orphanage in Sisophon. Handed out school uniforms, sang some worship songs and played with the kids. For the people traveling to the David Center with us, this orphanage was only a warm up to what we will do for the children at the David Center. Yesterday, 12 July, we traveled to siem reap but may one stop at the Eye of God Church for our Sunday service, rice distribution and medical clinic. Pastor Setan gave the message for us, he spoke from ecc. chapter 3. It was an extremely good message. It struck a chord in the hearts of many team members including mine. After arriving in Siem Reap, it was a free time for relaxation and shopping. Today, July 13, as some traveled to the Transform Asia farm, others went to Angkor Wat. It was a little hard for this year to return because we were not blessed with the wonderful knowledge, insight and tour guide ability of Bobby, but we know he was there with us in spirit. We traveled to many of the temples as before the main temple, Angkor Thom ( where tomb raider and our team pictures are usually taken). Many pictures were taken and memories made as we ran, climbed, walked, and enjoyed a rich and beautiful piece of history. It puzzles a few on why it is not one of the wonders of the world. Tonight is our last night of relaxation. We lose several members: Zack and Mike Koulton, Eileen O'Neall, Proverb, Dr. Randy and his daughter Gywn, and Melanie left two days before, we will dearly miss them. They made this trip amazing and fun. I feel blessed to have served with them on this trip. I ask to you please pray for their safety as they fly home. I hope that the all make it home safely and have no health problems. Please pray for us for tomorrow the team travels to Anlong Vang, which was the last strong hold for Pol Pot. It is a evil place and evil presence can be felt. I ask for prayers of protections and safe keeping for our team. Thank you for your prayers. Miss you all. God Bless You. Good night and Good Morning to some.
