All,
We have finally arrived in Cambodia! The last flight was easy or trying, depending on who you ask. Some members of the Rainbow Squadron sat next to Khmer (Cambodian) Christians who were returning from an International Youth Conference in Korea and were praising God the whole ride home. Others... sat between the equipment lockers and the lavatory, and were treated to the ramblings of a trio of drunken tourists. Even that was an opportunity to praise God just to be on a plane to Cambodia. And now we're here!
It's off to bed to get some rest for tomorrow. We'll be touring Teuol Sleng, a Khmer Rouge prison camp where many were killed. It is a sobering experience, but it's also a chance to connect with the recent, painful history here. Our afternoon will be brighter, though, as we'll attend a wedding and get to see the kids from all three orphanages! Apparently, the kids asked Pastor Vek if they could come meet us at the airport, but sadly it was too crowded to bring 100 children there. So, we'll wait a few more hours!
Thanks for all your prayers!
