Lynn was up quite early to go over his 2 messages for this morning...Sunday the students invite friends to church and they prayed much for Gods spirit to work thru Lynn on Sunday. May I say, HE did! Thank you too, for your prayers!
Sunday school is at 7:30, and two of the dorms have their own services and two meet here except on the first Sunday. The overhead projector glass smashed to pieces as they were trying to change a burned out bulb, before Sunday school started. That meant no words for the songs....but also a little added stress for those in charges. BUT God spoke thru Lynn and in turn thru Chetra as his interpreter.....a double channel of blessing. The students were soooo with Lynn as he shared Biblical truths, with practical applications and personal stories.
At the end of the services they have testimony time.....Veshnu came up to share. We have come to know and love him this past week. He has been working so hard to teach Judy Khmer vocabulary. As he stood, you could tell he was nervous......after over a year at Crossroads, he had not come to faith in Christ, so it was his first time to share.
BUT his good news was that God had really spoken to his heart this week, and he wanted to be a Christ follower! There was rejoicing!! God is sooooo very good.
A quick lunch and then their soccer outreach on Sunday afternoon. Before the game started, Lynn was given a little plastic bag....in it, a team uniform!!!
Such fun! The students are great soccer enthusiasts! How fun that God has gifted Lynn "even as a Grandpa" because it has been sooooo key in e door of relationships with the 40+ guys that play, and now all the girls come faithfully to the games. To top it off.....Lynn was taken down in a slide tackle....so fun that they treat him as one of them :)..... But he also got an assist for a goal AND a head goal. BOTH teams were so excited.....so much fun!
With very little arm twisting we moved over to the big stadium to watch a championship soccer game with bunches of the students for the KINGs Cup...and then because we had a dinner engagement had to rush off before the end. It is only a mile "home" and we could quite easily have walked...but when we said we were leaving....a precious entourage wanted to make sure we arrived home safely....
A quick shower and then we were treated to a special Kymer dinner with Brother Vuth, who is the office manager for CR"........and to hear their hearts for the ministry and their love for the students.
The days are so very full
Our hearts......even more full!
