Sport Day 2009

Dear brothers and sisters,

May the peace of God be with you throughout the busyness in the daily life.

Last Friday, our school held the 2009 Sport Day. Everyone in the school was busy last week for students training and make preparation for this big day. Thanks God for preparing the Sibu Wesley short term mission team to be here with us. They handled the whole events of the telematch session included the ideas and students training. They also sponsored caps and prizes for this Sport Day. Thanks for their love to the children, may God reward them on their willingness to share the God's love with Cambodian children.

The result of our G9 students was announced last week. Out of 25 students who took the national exam, we have 2 top students in the Cambodia. In Cambodia, there is 60% of the students passed the exam. For our school, we have 2 students failed the exam and they achieved roughly 92% of the students passed the exam in MSC. Praise God for the good result. May God continuously lead this school in glorify His name on this piece of land.

Holiday Training Camp (HTC 2009)

Dear brothers and sisters,

The Grade 9 National Exam had passed, the G9 students were all very happy after the exam. They said that all the subjects are easier compared to the trial exam before, except Chemistry paper. We haven't got the result yet, but hope that their result will glorify God's name.

As a closing for this school year, we would like to share the happiness and the eagerness of us in looking forward to the Holiday Training Camp (HTC 2009) this year. This is the first year of having this in-house HTC in MSC.

The purpose of this training camp is targeted on both Christian and Non-Christian students in the school. We pray that God will use this camp to strengthen the faith of Christian among the students. For non-Christian students, we pray that they will accept the opportunity as God’s children. The three week camp is planned in such a way that the students will be able to know more about our God and truly understand the relationship that they can develop with God. May the words of God deeply sow in their heart that brings internal renewal and external changes in their attitudes and behaviors.

Please pray together with us:
1. Praise God that our small core committee (sk, bw and Teacher Vimala) has finalized the curriculum and workshops for this camp. We are in the process of tidy it up and translation to Khmer language.

2. We are going to distribute the registration form for students to get approval from their parents on this coming Wednesday. Pray for the students to be able to come and have desire to know God better.

3. We started looking for Worship Team member (among the students) for the camp, in which this team would served as the core group of leaders in the future follow-up after the camp. Pray that God provides suitable people for this team.

Please hand-in-hand pray together with us, for the students salvation and the power to fight against darkness.

July

Dear brothers and sisters,

Now is the busiest time for the school, for teachers of course. For students, the month of July is the merriest month in the whole year of studying. As they have completed the final exam earlier, this month is the time for chit-chating, preparing for the coming Annual Sport Day and the English Week, in which each class will have some activities that are related to English. For instance, Grade 7, 8 and 9 are going to have Speech Contest, Quizzes, and English Song singing contest in the middle of July. However, our G9 still needs to wait for another week to say “I am free!”. They are going to sit for the National Exam on the coming Monday and Tuesday. Please pray for their preparation and the reliance to God in facing such an important event in their life.

For us, besides keep ourselves busy with the school’s activities. We are engaged in the preparation and planning for the Holiday Training Camp. The schedule for the Holiday Training Camp is as below:
Teachers Training Camp 3/8/2009 – 7/8/2009 (1 week)
Secondary Students Training Camp 10/8/2009 – 27/8/2009 (3 weeks)

We shall share more about this in our next update.
