Wow! I still can't believe that I'm really here! I arrived in Phnom
Penh this morning (Thursday) around 11am Cambodia time (which was 12am
Thursday morning Indianapolis time). My four planes and 30 hours of
travel went very well and my luggage made it too! Thank you for all of
your prayers for safe travel—they were answered!
Right now it's 82 degrees F at 11:18pm. It's hot. I'm sitting in front
of a fan in the living room as I write this! Yes, there is wireless in
our apartment. J What a blessing!
Tomorrow I will go the World Relief office, meet many new people, and
get a bigger picture of what the 8 months will be like here. I'm still
dazed from travel, but I think that everything will begin to feel more
real tomorrow.
Thank you so much for your prayers over the past weeks and months. I'm
really here in Cambodia and I'm very excited to see what God has
planned for me here!
Here are few things you can pray for as a transition to life here:
1. For quick and easy adjustment to the time change: good sleep
at night and energy during the day!
2. That I would be a blessing to people as I meet them for the
first time and begin to work in the World Relief office.
3. That I would be a learner: of culture and people (and language too!).
4. For strong friendships to develop with Kate (who I'm working
with now) and Kerstin (who will be my roommate for the next 8 months).
5. For eyes to see the Lord at work, a heart soft for Him to
mold, and ears to hear His voice.
I'm off to bed for my first night's sleep in Cambodia!
I am so thankful for you!
In Christ,
Katie
