Hi Everyone,
This is NOT a prayer update but it is related to education in Cambodia.
There is an organization called One Laptop Per Child that was founded by Nicholas Negroponte, the co-founder of MIT’s Media Lab. The name says it all … they desire to put a laptop into the hands of every school aged child [...]
Hi prayer folks,
We’re back from our one week trip in Singapore. Despite a crazy first 48 hours (you can read the “gross” details on Danny’s blog), Danny kicked butt on the GREs and we had a fabulous time. We went to a lot of fun places like Sentosa, botanical garden, Snow City and the Night [...]
Praying people,
It’s been a while since we last sent out an update. Sorry about that. At the top you’ll get the basic prayer requests with some additional information at the bottom for those who are interested.
1) Visitors: During the past month, we’ve had 3 sets of visitors come stay with us at Sunrise. Without exception, [...]
Brothers and Sisters,
Life is good and I don’t take it for granted! Thanks for your persistent prayer on our behalf.
Important Meeting: The morning of Friday August 10 (Thursday evening/night US time) Darany, the Project Director of ICKCC/Sunrise, will be meeting with government officials in order to seek approval for the re-registration of our ministries in [...]
Sibs,
Yesterday the Cambodian national government issued a directive which basically prohibits public evangelism by Christians. I don’t understand all the details and implications but both national believers and missionaries are concerned.
Please pray for a healthy response on the part of the Christian community here. Also pray that the directive will help put an end to [...]
Dear praying friends,
Here’s the latest from Cambodia …
Trip to Vancouver: I, Danny, will be traveling July 21 -30, primarily to participate in a consultation entitled “Rediscovering a Holistic Gospel.” I’m REALLY excited about this consultation and the possible impact it will have on CRM as an organization.
Please pray that God will use this time in [...]
Sibs,
Sorry to be out of touch for a while. Overall, we’re all doing very well. Thanks for backing us up so faithfully!
A Call to Fast During Ramadan: Kampong Cham gets its name from the Cham, a Muslim ethnic group that lives here in significant numbers. As of yet, there has been no large scale turning [...]
Dear prayer folks,
April is the height of hot/dry season. It’s been sweltering the last few weeks but has cooled down a bit the last few days. We have found Kampong Cham a little bit cooler than Phnom Penh. We think it is mainly because the electricity in this small town is more stable than in [...]
Sibs,
We wanted to give a brief update on our last prayer requests:
Kampong Cham: We’ve been here a little over a week, and have settled in quite well. Our housing here is shockingly nice. Anita joked with me yesterday that she sometimes feels like we’re in Florida rather than [...]
Sibs,
Transitioning from Malaysia back to Cambodia has been smoother than I expected. I attribute that to grace.
Moving: This Friday morning, March 23, we are moving to Kampong Cham City (city is a generous term here). Currently, we have mixed feelings about the move: excitement at the possibilities for ministry and anxiety regarding boredom of small [...]
