We had a good trip from Battambang to Phnom Penh yesterday with Dave, Doris, Maria (a missionary workin in Siem Reap), and the short term team. We divided the group in two pickups and two taxis which were white Camrys running on natural gas. Doris was worried about driving in a convoy because conditions on the road can change rapidly between the lead car and the ones following. At one point a cow decided to try to cross the road between us, a cow can be hard to avoid when you are traveling 50 or 60mph. But God had his hand over us during the 5hr drive and we arrived safely. I got to have really good conversations with some of the high schoolers on the drive down. They asked a lot of questions about apologetics and I was able to challenge them to stand firm on their view of the absolute truth and accuracy of scripture. Before dropping them off at the airport we stopped for about an hour and half at the market and did some shopping. I've never seen so many people buy so much in such a short time. They got really good at bargaining.
I've also had good conversations with Chris Bellar, one of Dave and Doris' new team members. I'm looking forward to "interogating" all the missionaries I meet on this trip.
Prayer Requests:
- Still need to prep for Field Forum.
- Need to start typing up stuff for my Field Intership portfolio.
- Praise God, health is still excelent!
