We have been super busy here at In His Steps: our sponsored children have been studying up a storm for their exams (and many got top marks in their classes!), Sak Saum girls have had some visitors and are learning new skills, our English classes are overflowing with students, and our church plant is growing! On the administrative end of things, I have been very occupied with helping our directors get ready for tax time (non-profit organizations have a lot of accounting responsibilities to prove to the IRS that they are legitimate!). So we have been going over numbers from last year and getting ready for the rest of this year. It's kind of mundane, but also very important if we want to keep going with the work our ministry is doing here.
It's extremely hot in Cambodia right now, to the point where you wake up in the middle of the night and wonder if the fan is really on. Even local people say it's hot, which helps make us foreigners feel less conspicuous as we sweat gallons and fan ourselves with anything that happens to be available!
As I mentioned earlier, the English classes at our Foundation Center are overflowing... Eric recently made a short video at the Center so I thought I'd post the link to let you catch a glimpse of how busy it is here every day. But yet again, Blogger.com is having problems posting links. So if you want to see the video, copy the following URL and paste it into your browser. Sorry for the hassle, enjoy!
