December 21st we celebrated Christmas with 300 Khmae from Sompovloun. It was a great celebration with 200 children, 50 adults, and 50 youth. We had a worship service that included some skits from the children and youth, then gathered for a delicious meal of bread dipped in curry. At the end we gave out small gift packs to the children. It was a wonderful time of seeing those in the church doing all the preparation, and everyone helping deal with the clean-up afterwards. Here are some photos of the day:

Thank you all for your support and prayers through this last year. God is working and moving in this community and people are coming to know the Saviour. Some highlights for prayer for this next year are the finalization of the purchase of the ministry center, and Lord willing our first baptism in April.
Thanks for being a part of the team!!
