7:30am!!! Yes, that's what time the service at New Life in Christ Church started. And you wanna know the more crazier thing?...................The church packed out around 70-80 youth!! Imagine, that many youth getting up that early for church?! Incredible, by our western standards. Most Westerners can barely drag themselves out of bed in time to catch the last song of worship in a service that starts at 10:30!!! The entire service was in Khmer, so Jenny & I did not understand a word, but it was an experience that neither of us have had before. Church, SE Asia style. It was good though. Pastor Keat explained to us later that he spoke on time management. Something that is crucial here in Cambodia. We relaxed in the afternoon, and then went over to Matt & Nary's for lunch, before heading to International Christian Fellowship for a late afternoon service. This is an english speaking church where missionaries, and NGO's attend. We got a couple of contacts afterwards, and ended up with a scenic tuk tuk ride home. Tomorrow we start teaching english in the school New Life in Christ Church has. We are excited for great opportunities to present themselves in this new sphere of influence we enter.
Revelation 21:4 And He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes. There shall be no more death; there shall be no more mourning, or crying or pain; for the first things have passed away.
