Over the past week my team and I have been working on fundraising to provide the orphans at New Hope Orphanage in Kampong Cham a day at the waterpark as well as uniforms for a summer camp they get to go to in August. The Lord provided and we were able to take the children and staff (almost 60 people) to a waterpark in Phnom Penh this past Sunday. All of the children had never been to a waterpark. It was so much fun to see their faces as they had fun in the pool and on the slides. Here are just a few of the pictures from that day:   A bunch of us made a giant chain in the water and...

Back on one of our first days in Cambodia, the team and most of the kids were walking along a path next to the vast rice fields. We were on our way back from our walk, and I was holding hands with one of the kids I had particularly bonded with, Samnung. He started singing a song of praise to God, Hallelujah to the Lamb.

I looked at Samnung as we were passing by, and I was astounded. He was unphased....

Saturday and Sunday are both days where we have church with the kids and some of the people from the village. They are both such impactful nights full of praise. Last Saturday night we sang “Every Move I Make” and then two Khmer worship songs. Looking around at the children’s faces was so moving. Their faces showed complete joy, peace, and love for the Father. I was brought to tears knowing how big of a positive impact in Cambodia these children will be as future fathers, mothers, employees, and friends.  After worship we joined hands in a circle and spent time...
