Please read the update below from Sharon:
"We arrived in Siem Reap and God is continuing to do amazing things!! We stopped in Saruns village on the way to share the gospel; he thought we might have 50 people but ended up with over 100. It was down a smaller dirt track than other villages.
"We shared the gospel in small groups with salvation necklaces and with a separate group for children.
