Christmas Assembly Parade

Last month BB Cambodia has selected a group of Boys to be the Guard of Honour during the camp. A week later, they had their 1st performance during our school yearly program "Christmas Assembly". They marched in and led everybody in the national anthem then marched pass the audiances. Here is the video for sharing.

Prayer

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011.
Thanks for be with us all these time, we appreciate your participation in our work this far.

In this new year 2011, although the school has started for two months, but some of the stuff just fall in place recently. Please pray for us.

For sunkhang:
1. Pray for the continuation of BB program every Saturday. After the camp (highlight of the year), the program of BB will be not as excited, pray that the student would still involve passionately in BB. Pray for the Christian Education in BB every week that the word will touch the students' heart and mould them to become better disciple of God (for those already received Jesus).

2. sunkhang has a new role as Physical Education (PE) teacher for 2 secondary classes (starting from this week). Pray that God guides him in getting near to to the students and can handle this new challenge with wisdom.

For beewah:
1. She is expecting with 5 months now. Thanks God that giving her a very healthy body all these while. Pray for the arrangement of meeting a specialized doctor somewhere this week or next week for the 5th month thorough check-up as we can't contact the doctor yet (suspecting that she might be outstation for this holiday season).

2. Pray for the work of writing the handbook for computer department in MSC. This handbook will serve as a guideline for whoever incharge in the computer room in the future.

For MSC:
1. Pray for the Grade 9 students in the school. They are sitting for the first Trial National Exam on 31/1/2011 to 1/2/2011. They need to sit for eleven exams within these two days. Pray that God prepares them well and grant them healthy body in this period of time.

May God bless your new year with His mercy and His love.

1st Phnom Penh Enrollment Parade and Service

1st Phnom Penh Company had our 1st enrollment parade and service last weekend in Methodist School of Cambodia. 97th Singapore Company had sent a strong team of 19 people leaded by Captain Hoe Yong to support and run the 3D2N camp before the Parade and Service. We had total of 75 Boys joining the camp. They all had lots of funs, tiring activities, exercises, discipline punishments and most importantly we had registered ourselves with our Lord God father last Sunday afternoon time at 3:30pm. Here are some photos to share.

Repair House (2)

Bought the wood and tools from the shop (used the school van)

Transfered the wood from the "lakeside"

Lastly, the wood arrived in the hut

Let's discuss how to make the bridge

Any idea?

The carpenters were working on the two wings. While the boys had to come out with the bridge.

Repair House

Dear all,

Time flies, thanks for still be with us here in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

This month, sk carried out a house repair project, which is sponsored by the members of Kuching Chin Daw MC. A couple came here last August during the Holiday Training Camp and decided to help in a poor family after they went back to Malaysia.

This family (3 family members: an old mother, a grown-up son and a Grade10's daughter) stays on a "lake". Actually it is not a lake, just that the landscape of the area is lower than the other neighbouring land, so all the water gathered there. The mother used this opportunity to keep some ducks and geese for living. Although the older brother is working, but the job is not stable yet the pay is little.

After the raining season this year, the bridge that was initially connected the house to the dry land collapsed and the house was shaking especially on the both small "wing" that support the main hut. In order to maintain the place they stay, the project included rebuilding the bridge, and the two small wings beside the hut.

There are 14 BB Boys helped voluntary in this projects + three hired local carpenters. Within a day (morning 9:30 till 5:00 afternoon), the project finished. Praise God that Sopier (the girl) has a stronger hut and this also give experiences and opportunities to the boys to learn how to serve n help other people. May God use these boys to become servant leader among their people.

Let's check out the photos:

The house before repairing - they are using sampan to replace the bridge

The left wing of the hut - for the brother to sleep at night

The right wing of the hut - as kitchen

School update

Hai.

Last Monday, Phnom Penh Cambodia had a very heavy rain for a day. The water level rose up very quickly. We worried the flood will come inside the offices at the ground floor area. We quickly took up all the books, school uniforms, computer and boxes to the higher places. Then we have a prayer meeting to ask for God's mercy for His people in this lovely city. On the next day, we were shocked by the flood at MSC because since the school started until today, we never encounter this kind of serious flood. Our current no of students are 800 plus students but that morning less than a hundred came to school, because not only our school is flooded but other area as well. So for the 1st time in our history we were force to close the school for two days because of the flood.

We immediately send some SMS to friends to ask them to pray for us and ask for God mercy. God is faithful and He had listened to our prayer. The rain has stopped and we only have a normal rain recently. Praise the Lord.

Beside the above surprise everyone is fine here. All the operations run smoothly. We also have some good news because the Lord has provided MSC two new short termers to teach English in our school for three months. And next month, we will have another short termer from Singapore for three months as well. She is a retired Pricipal in Singapore comes here to look see look see.... Maybe she will stay on in the near future.

Please pray for the short termers so that they can catch the vision to come back and help in this school.

here are some photos to share....

This new school year we have some new jobs and responsibilities. will update next month.
