We've Had A Great Day!

We've had a great day. Everyone is still fine healthwise, including The Mey.

The day started out in the worst traffic jam I've ever seen across the bridge past Sokhom's neighborhood. No way to describe it other than every square inch of road was occupied with a car, truck, tuk or moped. Upon arrival at Lveasar we all gathered in the ground floor of the church for introductions - everyone introduced themselves, and I mean everyone. It took a long time.

The first surprise of the day was when they announced Steve was leading a water purification class. 14 people from my conference left and went to his. He made things up on the fly as he and Michael assembled the equipment. I look forward to seeing how Steve describes it in the blog.

My part went well. I led two sessions and Scott led one. The pastors were so appreciative for us being there even before we started teaching. I love teaching Pastors. The dynamic is very different from the K3 conferences we've led in the past. After the conference was over and we were waiting for the motos, Malin came up and gave me a great big hug. That sure made my day.

Here are a few other highlights from the day.
We had coconut milk at break time.
One of our translators was Nida - Nymo's sister. She is just like him, humor and everything.
Ravy came again today and I got to talk with him for quite a while. He is doing real good. He says to tell everyone hi.
The restaurant here has great food and is cheap. I never saw a good cheap restaurant I didn’t like!

Tell everyone thanks for their prayers - we feel them.

Greg
