A visit to Sunbeam Orphanage...what a treat to actually see it!  As we came unto the grounds of the ministry...we saw the tuk-tuk that was purchased for the children to get to school...oh what a blessing to see it! Just had to stand by it! 

All these needs...and God continues to move in the hearts of the supporters to help in this outreach in Battambang.  





Jerry was called to go into back remote areas where there isn't even a road to travel on by car to share the Gospel.  Not long ago there was a large genocide of killing and destruction by the Khmer Rouge against their own people.

This caused so much destruction and a destitute situation to the people of Cambodia they seem only recently to be coming out of it! 

The the pastors have a heart to go deep into these outskirts and go to places that others have not gone!

This is also on the grounds of the orphanage...the Pastor's "monthly meeting" building.  Also erected by the ministry! 

There is Wilma and Shari who is the Director for Sunbeam kids!  


This is the girls home.

The kids enjoy a visit from Jerry & Wilma!

The boys here are playing a fun game with little seeds...could it be like marbles?  The one boy proudly showed his pocket and gave me a big smile..."hey look how many I already won" he seemed to say! 

Dinner was being prepared by the staff...so healthy vegetables and a zuchini dish with pork in it! Smells really good!

This little guy wanted a picture taken!  He and his doggy!

Shari who is from Indiana has been called to come and serve here at the Sunbean Home!  She has a great love for the children and the Lord has given her so many skills through the years that work just perfectly and will bring many blessings to the orphanage! 

Here we are...all snuggled with the kids....they enjoy the attention and we love to give it right back! 

*********************

After a good nap and little relax time - we decided to go out to "Gecko" restaurant again and Shari joined u and we had a cozy time together - enjoying a good meal, sweet fellowship  - on the balcony! Shari shared her "calling" to come...neat story! 

....it was a perfect evening and we so enjoyed ourselves! 

...and of course the troops were out there promoting their best choice for the new Prime Minister....this week on the 28th is voting day! We are pleased it is coming soon....even now as I write they are having a rally right across the street!
