Robert and Emily in England!
Below is an email from Robert and Emily, who are in England this week on a trip (written by Emily): I had a few minutes this morning so I thought I would let you know how things are going.

I think we were able to bless and encourage some of the church members with ...

Update from Cambodia - Friday 3/16
The following is an email update sent from David Bales, who is in Cambodia with Chiv and Emara In: I have to apologize for my inconsistency in blogging.

But I do want you to know what’s going on, because it’s all pretty amazing. Chiv is pretty unstoppable around here. The days with full agendas get flat out crazy and when he says, “We don’t have anything on the agenda, so we’ll sleep in and drive to Battambang after lunch,” like he ...
