I preached at the Saturday night youth program. This was the first youth program in the new sanctuary, on fourth level of the CMO building. The old sanctuary could hold only 100 people. The new sanctuary has the capacity for over 800 people. As more students come to learn English, the congregation gets bigger and bigger.
I preached a topical sermon about 'forgiveness', using a personal story to appeal to appeal to the youth.
This week Cambodia is celebrating the Chinese New Year. Many of our students, including our Bible students are going home to their provinces. Some new Christians will return to their villages where either Buddhism reigns, or there is no religion. May they stay strong in faith and may Jesus give them boldness about their savoir!
Tomorrow, Keat and Sally are taking the teachers of New Hope School to Vietnam for the day, and they have invited Josh and I to join them. So, tomorrow we will spend the day in Vietnam, and spend the rest of our 4-day holiday preparing for our Bible studies.
Also, I have received the a traditional Khmer skirt, which all of the Cambodian teachers wear. Now, when I teach I wear a white button-up shirt and Khmer skirt, which wins smiles of delight from the Cambodians every time!

Our lives to be fruitful, must be full of Christ; to be able to bring peace, joy and love, we must have it ourselves, for we cannot give what we have not got.
