Greetings!

Thank you for your prayer for last night's Gospel Festival for College.  We
had over 100 people besides our group attending.  After another day of
teaching classes, we quickly ate and setup for Gospel Fest in the Worship
Hall.  Thanks to streamers brought from US, the hall transferred to a
festive place.  We also moved the tables setup the benches into concert hall
seating style so it is better for people to sit and enjoy.  Later some
students commented "wow, new style of seating".  After a quick sound check
for the praise band and going over the set once, we had the race of the
lifetime skit team going over the skit with Chan-Si (Jesse) who is second
year theology student.  He is our Khmer narrator.  I came to know him well,
he is a dear brother.  I am just challenged by his enthusiasm, humility,
servanthood and love.  I am amazed that we were able to pull it off.

7pm approached quickly and we were excited to see many non-Theology students
came.  The program included praise (led by praise band), special solo violin
performance by Jacob Chi, Skit (race of the life time), testimony by Robert
Kim and message.  After the message we passed out the response sheet and
gave the students few minutes to fill it out.  It was good to see everyone
taking time to write.  We then played rounds of charade which lots of words
were lost in translation and it actually made it more fun because of that.
Still we had a winning team which we gave our water bottle as prize.  The
snack time afterwards was good for our team members to further share with
them our personal story and hear from them what they got out from tonight's
message.

By the time we clean the place and sat down, everyone just seemed tired but
encouraged by the openness and the response of the students.  We don't have
much time to rest as we have Joy Festival and visit to Orphanage which is
the last two large event in our agenda.

It is Wednesday morning here.  Today's is Queen Sihanoukville's birthday so
it is a national holiday.  We scheduled the Joy Festival to start at 9am but
6am and some kids already showed up.  We have 11 booths that we are setting
such as photo booth for the family portrait as we heard it is a rare treat,
shooting gallery, arm wrestle, ring toss, bowling...etc.  We made flyer to
invite both kids and parents so that they can come and see what kids are
doing here.  We hope that we can give the family a chance to play games
together and attend the worship portion to listen the message.  In the
afternoon, we are visiting the biggest orphanage here in Sihanoukville which
has over 100 orphans there with gifts and clothes donated by our members.
Please pray that our team and run hard to the last day we are here.

Thank you for your prayers as all our members are back to 100% health level.
