The House is Painted - Yeah!

We have finished painting all that we can in the house so far. The rest will have to wait for the dry season and the gutters to be fixed. The house looks great! It is amazing what a little fresh paint on the walls can do.

Today we will be cleaning up all of the trash on the outside of the house. Getting the yard in shape and putting up a new clothes line. It takes a pretty sturdy clothes line to handle 25 people's laundry.

We have a few people with stomach problems - Sarah Atchely, Matt Spencer, and myself (Lewis). Please pray for us to get healthy. Nothing serious, but stopping to hit the bathroom five or six times per day slows us down.

All of the team have done an incredible job of serving. It has been neat for the Khmer to see the Americans working like they have. This morning's devotion was on the example of Jesus in coming to serve mankind and I have to say that this team has truly followed the example of our Lord. I am thankful for each of them.

Lewis, one of your former pastors would be so proud of you (Bro. Brannen) as he often times has done what you and the team are doing. Praying, serving, working and hitting the bathroom several times per day. We are praying for you!
