To Vietnam and Back Again

Hi Friends!

Its been a whirlwind of a few weeks as we traversed into Vietnam and met and worked with some YWAMers and other Christians in the country. It was somewhat of a shock to be back in such a busy city after being in a small town in Cambodia for nearly two months. And if you have ever heard anything regarding the craziness of traffic in Ho Chi Minh City...believe it. It's absolutely ridiculous. Imagine millions (literally) of motor bikes and cars and taxis all buzzing around the city without any real road rules. One of the Vietnamese told me "if you didn't pray before coming to Ho Chi Minh, you will once you experience the traffic!" It's true.

We visited orphanages with handicapped children, we met with university students, we worked with the believers there doing evangelism around the city, we did some discipleship training for new Christians who wanted to learn more about their relationship with God - we were pretty much bombarded with things to do! And it was all wonderful. The Lord met us in really powerful and touching ways as we connected with the students as we taught them more about hearing from God, their identity in Christ, and about worship.

I am now back in Cambodia in a city named Battambang. As I finish the tail end of my six month DTS there are a few more prayer needs I can ask you to lift up :) Please pray that my team and I would finish our time on outreach strong...the thoughts of life at home begin to creep in more steadily now as we prepare for life after DTS. Also, that God would really show us more of who He is and how he loves us. We are really seeking after Him in these last weeks to finish well and give everything we have. I also need prayer as to the decisions regarding my future after this is over...I could use all the prayer I can get.

I love you and am praying for you, too!!
