Life is good at the BEC!

Just thought we would show everyone a few pics of the BEC flat(Bible Education Centre). The thought may have crossed your mind that you would like to come over for a while and help with spreading God's word in this great country! If you love God's word, have a yearning to share it with others, want to grow spiritually yourself....then this is for YOU!!!!!
As you can see from the pictures, bedrooms are very comfortable, kitchen is great, and this is what we had for breakfast this morning in our upstairs sitting room!
Tonight for dinner our sister Gaye cooked a magnificent traditional Thai meal (she is from Thailand): chicken, sticky rice, green vegetables with chilli sauce and a sweet potato curry...MMMM!

We have hardly seen a mosquito since we have been here, except for a few in the early morning and at dusk. So if we go out at that time, we just make sure we have a good repellent on. We see more mozzies at home in Terranora than we do here! We would be lucky to see one a week inside.

Cambodian New Year is coming up in April so we are expecting a quiet break as most of the "dormers" go home for a few weeks. Also the students at LCDI will go home for a while.
We are feeling so elated by the fertile ground we are working in and thank you all for your prayers and encouragement!

Lynne and Steve

You have James and Matt defying death at the top of a huge ladder with rolls of tape and mesh to thank for that :)

Maybe I'm just a girl

Well, dear Readers, Things have been busy here with preparation for our seminar this weekend. Catering, printing, emailing and phoning have been occupying our hours. James is sitting opposite me on the table working on his talks for Friday. We have had quite a number of bookings for our seminar and the numbers have only been limited by the size of our premises. God willing, all will attend and we’ll have a good two days of talks and chatting. We’re planning, God willing, a boat cruise as our social activity and that should be a blast since we can have a 2 hour cruise for 50 people for only $20. Have managed to hook up skype credit and tested a mobile call to Prydie. The 5 second lag meant it was like having two random monologues in the same room. The prices was fairly reasonable, but even as 3 cents a minute the cost climbs. James spends much time out on the balcony. He gets good wireless reception. It's quite a amusing to peek through the window and see James out on the balcony wa...

God Proves the Power of Prayer Again and Again

Over the course of my five-month long Cambodia trip I had the opportunity to teach class es at the Bethezer girl dorm regularly . For th ese class es I have a translator so I just get to teach the good news ( none of this dilly-dallying about English teaching ). Our topic on this particular night was prayer. Philippians 4:6 reminded us that God is longing to hear from us just as a father lo ves to hear from his child or how we are just hanging out to get a message from someone we love. We looked at H is promises to answer ALL our prayers while we abide in Jesus Christ (John 15:7) and at Psalm 34:4 where God confidently affirms that when you find your happiness with God, H e will certainly give you more of what makes you happy (Him!). And you can pray for that happiness because God will give you anything that brings you closer to Him so never be afraid to ask! That is nothing but i ncredibly good news ! We raced through many more quotes and I had expected to strug...
