Cambodia By Celiena Davis

Our team is here in Cambodia finishing up our final days. We knew that we were going to see how God is working in Cambodia but it is nothing like we expected. Churches are blossoming, people are coming to Christ, and Cambodia has come a long way. Today we had the opportunity to go to an orphanage on the other side of the city and got to speak with a missionary named Maria. Hearing her story was encouraging to us all and we learned that God does in fact in work even when we don't see it. We were able to show our puppet skit as well as our group song which was a great experience to share our love of Christ. My biggest takeaway so far is that even with the language barrier, there are all sorts of ways to worship and we are all worshiping the same Father who loves us unconditionally. Cambodia has been an amazing experience so far and we are expectant for what God is going to continue to do. - Celiena Davis

Laura & Natalie here :) We arrived in Tokyo last Thursday and we have been loving every moment in this enormous city  From the people to the food, this city is always keeping us on our toes. Our team can be heard from miles away as we disrupt the peace of the beautiful city with our chaos. However, we’ve used this chaos to our advantage while working with several of the adorable children that live in this city. We have sung, danced and fed children crazy amounts of sugar while loving every moment of ministry. When we weren’t doing ministry, a crazy hunt for the perfect chopsticks kept us busy. One thing we didn’t see coming, was a ride on a pirate ship around Mt. Fuji as it rumbled, causing us to all think it was going to erupt! Overall, this trip has challenged us but blessed us with new friends and experiences that we will never be able to replicate. Every day we are shocked as we learn to live life together in a new culture. As this trip comes to an end, we are prepa...

Hi everyone!  This is Hannah Pearson, with (very) warm greetings from the Philippine Island of Cebu! After a graveyard flight on Thursday night, we arrived to Cebu City early last Friday morning, with a full day’s schedule ahead of us. By the day’s end, we were all completely wiped. The next few days continued to feel a little hectic, partially due to our schedules, but also due to our exhaustion, our mixed emotions of leaving Thailand, and general confusion over expectations for our time here. For me, I had a tough time the first couple of days here, just because everything we were doing felt random and disconnected. We didn’t have any context for our ministry activities, which made it difficult to be motivated or excited about what we were doing. But then I had the opportunity to have a conversation with Gay, the wife of Pastor Rainer Tong. This couple has been our hosts while we’ve been here in the Philippines, directing, guiding, and leading us every step of the way. Wh...
