2014 Short Term Team - Our Last Days in Cambodia


Today we have our last stolen moments with these precious students. In such a short time, these people have touched our hearts, this country has astounded us with beauty and the Lord has taught us more about love than we could ever have imagined.

This week has been a whirlwind of new lessons about the deep abounding love of Christ for us and his dedication to a plan to save us all from ourselves in our sin. We have spoken about love, forgiveness and trust because the Lord has interwoven these three great truths into the fabric of our lives and on this fantastic journey to be closer to Him.
We are left with an overwhelming sense of gratitude for each moment we have been given. The students opened their hearts and their dormitories to us while we were here and we cannot be more thankful, especially when we are reminded of Thanksgiving!

Last night, we taught on the history of Thanksgiving and how thankfulness should be present in everything that we do. It was a bittersweet time in which we made prayer bracelets and discussed the things we are thankful for.  We laughed, smiled and cried after the lesson. The students were so precious when they said their goodbyes. These memories will stay with us for the rest of our lives.

All of the students and the Team!
