Moving on

Sorry I seemed to have disappeared for a few days, but I didn't feel any pressing need to post since not a lot has been going on. Field forum ends today (Sunday) and most of the days have been really relaxing, with lots of free time at the beach, time hanging with the kids and just talking with people. I've gotten a lot of time to spend in God's word which has been amazing.
But tomorrow we head back to Phnom Penh. I am officially at the halfway point of the trip so we have two weeks and then the second English camp and then home!
Right now, there are two options for the next week. There are two missionaries that are offering to host 3 interns at a time in their town just to see what they do. One family, the Strongs, live in western Cambodia near the Thailand border. They mostly work with AIDS patients but do a lot of church planting. Elias and Nat really want to visit them. The other missionary, Joyce, lives in eastern Cambodia near Vietnam, in the middle of nowhere. The Strongs can be reached in a 4 hour bus ride. Joyce takes a 12 hour taxi over horrible roads to reach her town. Emily and Jonathan really want to visit her. So...Stan and I are left to decide where we want to go. Because I haven't really spent a lot of time with Emily or Jonathan, and because I'm always up for an adventure, I am right now going to visit Joyce. We will leave Wednesday morning and come back to Phnom Penh on Sunday. It should be quite a trip, which is exactly why I am in Cambodia.
I will likely not have Internet access in the middle of nowhere so I'll do some final blogging before I leave. But thanks to everyone who is praying for me, emailing me and posting comments. They really do mean a lot when I am so far from home and have moments where I really wish I could teleport back to Pittsburgh. So far, I haven't had one moment of sickness which is pretty much statistically impossible. So please pray that continues. All the other interns have struggled with changing towns and changing food. And again. Thanks for your prayers!
