One of the
ways we try to help people understand the Gospel and the Christian life is by our
little lending library. We have several books that are somewhat easy-to-read
English but stories that are interesting for Cambodians the ages of high school
and above. Cambodian culture often does not value books nor reading, but we
keep encouraging the students that have studied English with us to borrow them and read them. Please
pray that God will use the books and help unsaved people see their need of
Christ. Pray that Christians would understand the good examples of people who
walked with God and want to follow. It is so rare for them to see Christian
families in real life. Some of the stories portray Christian homes filled with
the love and joy of Christ.
Please pray
for the Cambodian Christians at this Pechum Bun holiday time of year. It is a
festive couple weeks. The Buddhists take food to many pagodas to offer to the
spirits of their ancestors. The young Christians stand out when they refuse to
participate in false worship with their families. Please ask the Lord to
give them courage, joy, and peace in doing what is right and honoring to God.
“Our soul waits for the LORD; he
is our help and our shield.” Psalm 33:20
