All In One Day in Cambodia

Last night we got a call from Sister Leavitt making sure that we were going to the Steung Mean Chey 3rd Ward today. There was a motive to her inquiry, she asked if we could pick up the Sister Missionaries on our way. Yesterday a moto had hit them while they were stopped waiting to cross the road. Sister Y was the one that took the direct hit but she is only a little scraped up, but Sister Peng got a very sprained ankle. You can see Sister Peng's wrapped ankle in the one picture. We were more than happy to give them a ride to a from church.

Today in the Steung Mean Chey 3rd Ward they were confirming two youth that were baptized yesterday. As they got ready to do the confirmations the bishop called Elder Oveson up to help again. This time he was not asked to do the confirmation, just be part of the circle. They get enough confirmations they are completely comfortable with them.

Also, at the Steung Mean Chey 3rd Ward we met a family, the Blimes, that had just moved to Cambodia two weeks ago from Florida. The wife is Cambodian so they decided to move here for a year. The husband is a software developer so he can really do his work anywhere in the world where there is Internet. Let's just hope that the Internet is stable enough for him. They plan to stay here for a year.

September is supposed to be one of the rainiest months of the year here in Cambodia. It has clouded up and rained some most days, but last night and today we got some real good down pours. We were very surprised last week when we had to cross the Mekong River and saw how full and dirty it was. They must be getting a lot more rain further North for it to be so full.

Today's collage has a picture of the Sister Missionaries with the recent converts and their mother, the Blimes family from Florida, the rain was heavy enough you could see the drops, the flower wreath sellers in their rain coats, a marching band we saw going down the road followed by a guy in a pizza box (we missed getting the pizza box) and a Tuk-Tuk stuffed with construction material. All in one day in Cambodia.
