Today there was a new couple that came to church for the first time -- an American/French couple that lives in Paris. What a treat to be able to speak some French again! I was glad I had decided to wear my French Huguenot cross today. The man is retired from a financial company and they come to Phnom Penh every year for a few weeks. I guess we aren't the only ones who have discovered this pearl of a city!
And, cricket? No, not crickets, the insects; but cricket, the game. Did you know the Cricket World Cup is presently being played? Since we have people from England, Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and India attending the church, we are quite aware of the games. This week Australia and England were just eliminated in the quarter finals, and the semi-final games will be India-Pakistan and New Zealand-Sri Lanka. I still have little idea of how the game actually works, even though excerpts are always shown on the news here. But, I must check on Internet after I get home to see who wins the semis later this week.
Yes, our time in Cambodia is nearly over. We fly back to Singapore tomorrow. Our six weeks here have gone by so quickly. It has been a very rich and enjoyable experience. We are very grateful to the Church of Christ our Peace for welcoming us in such agreeable conditions.
