Christian Values Day


So on Wednesdays the University of Nations here in Siem Riep does a Christian values day instead of class in order to evangelize to their students. In briefing us they wanted to make sure our expectations were set that we would probably have 3 to 4 students and thus we would merge our computer class with the English class. And what they said was true for the first two classes as we only had about 7 students. However for our 3rd class everything changed for once the people started coming they did not stop until the room was overflowing. To start off the class we played a game were there are 3 teams and the goal is to see which team can stand on the smallest piece of paper and if you were wondering who won the girls did. Next we sang the song "everybody needs some love" which the lyrics were just the song title at different speeds and pitches like many of the songs that they sing here. Finally we finished up with the bible story of how 4 men cut a hole in the roof of the house were Jesus was staying and then lowered down their friend so that Jesus would heal him. Unfortunately no one came to the lord during this class but that's OK. Because we were still able to plant seeds in all of their hearts and one day I believe that those seeds will come to fruition and that it is just a matter of time before they come to know Jesus.
