Phnom Pehn

HIGHLIGHTS

- Got to go to CHURCH!!!!!! :) Yay! It was all in Cambodian but Heavenly Father is looking out for us and there happened to be an American there who's totally fluent in Cambodian and translated for us. It was fast and testimony mtg and just a little branch but full of people getting up to share their testimonies. It was a huge struggle the night before getting the info for the church but through a series of little miracles (that were quite big ones for me at the time) we got it all sorted out.

- A random Cambodian kid that was helping us find the church and one of our Aussie friends both came to church with us who we've been talking to about the church a lot. He's a really good hard-core, church-going kid. Were all on spiritual highs for the rest of the day.

LOWLIGHTS

- Went to the Tuol Sleng Museum. It was a high school that in the 70's was converted into a torture prison for Pol Pot victims. Very eye-opening and again, made me think of the depth of the Atonement and the love that God has for His children. A medium-light really.

- Squeeze the 6 of us in a tuk-tuk and we were so heavy it could barely move, then ran out of gas.
