Next week we begin our ministry at Daughters Cambodia, a Ratanak partner that ministers to girls who are desiring to leave the sex trade. Yesterday we had our first visit to meet some of the staff and girls that we will be serving with. Above is a photo of Kolab one of the staff holding who has been at Daughters since its inception and she will be one of our translators for the workshops that we will be doing. Pray for our time with her, she is a daugther of a pastor, and one whom we would love to encourage and bless. Below are some of the other photos of various sugar decorations that the girls at Daughters make. As a welcoming gift, the girls made us carrot cupcakes and the large carrot cake. Our team is gaining weight with all these delicious desserts.

Scripture from my prayer time this morning - may it bless you all and all whom you meet:
ReplyDeleteSince God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. (Col. 3:12-14 NLT)
Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. Pray for us, too, that God will give us many opportunities to speak about his mysterious plan concerning Christ. That is why I am here in chains. Pray that I will proclaim this message as clearly as I should.
Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone. (Col. 4:2-6 NLT)
