God's Provision for Cambodia

    And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.

2 Corinthians 9:8

    Thank you all for your prayers and support. Thank you for your generous donations, allowing the kids to watch a movie and eat popcorn, and have pizza, ice cream, and noodles! It definitely made the week for the children. I'm sure they won't forget the goodness and love that God has for them. We were also able to give the staff a break as we took the kids out to the field and played games with them. I brought the bracelet materials and we made bracelets every day. I was able to tell a Bible story to them about Peter walking on water. It was really fun and blessed in every way! The leader of the orphanage had a friend who has a huge boat. So we took the kids on a boat ride. Even though that day was raining, the kids still had a marvelous time. Praise God!!!

    We've now concluded our trip in Cambodia. My eyes were truly opened to understanding many things. As a person growing up in Taiwan, I was not unfamiliar with Buddhism. However, being in Cambodia has opened my eyes to see Buddhism in a deeper way. The Buddhism is so strong in this place that you can feel the heaviness. But no one is beyond the reach of God. We were able to train the youth from the social project called Light To The Nations Ministry. This ministry uses English teaching to reach the unreached villagers in the rural areas. I had so much fun being with the youth. Some of them are Christians and some aren't. But through this whole week, I was able to see breakthroughs in their faith. I was able to see them experience God and see His power. We did a mini DTS with them, which means the first three days was the lecture phase and the next three days was workshops on evangelizing and the last day was outreach. It was so good seeing their smiles and using the things that they have learned with joy. I believe this new generation will transform the village, transform their generation as they continue to walk and follow the LORD with passion. I really wanted to stay longer and help them get a youth group started and help disciple them to grow more in their faith. But God moved in my heart to say that this isn't the right time yet. I will never forget them and I will continue to keep them in my prayers. 

    Thank you all once again!  We are now heading to Pattaya, Thailand. Please pray for safe travels and good vibes in the team. Please contact me if you want to know more about anything I’ve shared in this post! God bless!!!

This is the place and children of God whom we had the honor and privilege to teach and train and serve together!

This was the team that we brought to the other village to evangelize! 
We brought the teenagers and the people who participated more.


These are house visits and we were able to share the gospel and pray with them.

This is one of the workshops, theater! We had so much fun!



Fun fact, there are MANY Brazilian missionaries in Cambodia. These were some of them. 
They were so awesome to encouraging!

Simply The Story

You trampled the sea with Your horses, the surging of mighty waves. I hear, and my body trembles; my lips quiver at the sound; rottenness enters into my bones; my legs tremble beneath me. Yet I will quietly wait for the day of trouble to come upon people who invade us. Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, Yet I will rejoice in the LORD ; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. GOD, the Lord, is my strength ; He makes my feet like the deer's; He makes me tread on my high places. To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. Habakkuk 3:15-19     These past few weeks I've been traveling and working a lot. I rested after EMF. You can check out my last blog to read up on it. I rested for about 2 weeks. I officially moved to São Paulo, so I was trying to settle in and rest. I'll admit, it was really hard. Because I...

Life Back in Brazil

  It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.   Stand firm,  then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Galatians 5:1     Being back has been great. I arrived in São Paulo after two days of travel. I went to JOCUM Casa to drop off a luggage. JOCUM Casa is the future ministry that I will be a part of. JOCUM is YWAM, Youth With A Mission. God has led me to move to São Paulo to serve at this YWAM base for the next two years. I'll be officially starting in July! I've volunteered there in January and February. And most of my things are there already. After resting for a day there, I took the bus back to Hope Mountain, the place where I've been for the past two years here in Brazil. I've decided to stay because I thought it would be good to volunteer here while six short-term mission teams from America will be at Hope Mountain in the months of May and June!     I've been baking a lot. I made brownies as it was Corenne's birthd...

Transitioning

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged,  for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."   Joshua 1:9          These past weeks have been amazing again. As the teams left, more teams came. The team from Indiana is our friends. They had 19 people. It was everyone on their church's mission board. And they brought their kids with them. It was a wonderful experience. Definitely exhausting but super fun serving them and serving God in being their friend and translator. We helped build a gazebo! We did a special dinner for Valentine's Day for the boys. We played Legos and helped with the swim classes for our new kids program at Hope Mountain. I had a fun time. There were some challenges but God was greater and He protected us.     The next team was an answer to prayer!!!! It was a team from YWAM. We call it JOCUM here in Brazil. It was a team from JOCUM Carioca, which means their ...
