I know I might step on some toes – Just hear me out- I love god with everything in me. My faith in Jesus Christ is so important- the most important thing in my life. But to box in my faith and tie my belief in Jesus to my church attendance or simply the word Christianity , doesn’t seem fitting to me.

Yuri shows me love in your typical affectionate, holding my hand at all times, kind of love. Panut shows me love by telling me jokes and giving me shoulder massages. What a guy!!!! My time here in Cambodia has been filled with children around us pretty much 24/7. Some are outgoing, some are shy, some like games, and some like to just be held.
