Travels, etc.

Michelle Little is preparing to come next week. Pray that God will give her a smooth trip here and use her during the two months she serves the Lord with us. Pray that we would communicate the gospel clearly and that God would give fruit.

September 30 I plan to travel to Phnom Penh to pick up Michelle. I also plan to turn in an application to renew my passport, plus meet with various people in the capital. With a day for travel by bus each way, and two days there, I expect to be away from Koh Kong for four days. Please pray for God to work out the many details involved.

Praise God for answered prayer for peace in the country of Cambodia. The political demonstrations in the capital were mostly peaceful and appear to be over. We thank God for His working.

This week and next is a holiday season for Cambodian Buddhists. It is called Pechum Ben, and the people visit many pagodas to give offering to their deceased ancestors.  Sometimes Christians are pressured by their friends and relatives to join in the ceremonies. Pray that it will be a time of victory for them as they refuse to participate and give a clear witness of their life in Christ.

“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Cor. 15:57
