Hello from Cambodia!

Greetings and God's Great Blessings to all of you, I trust you are doing well. Rhonda is in the U.S. now. She has finished up a visit in Western Kentucky and is making her way westward into Missouri. We both wanted to get the schedule of her speaking engagements out to you so you can be making plans to visit with her while she is with you.

As for the rest of us, we are making it along just fine. This past week has been our Khmer New Year Holiday in Cambodia. What starts out as a two day holiday gets stretched into a full ten days by many of the shops and markets. If they know anything well here it is how to enjoy their time off from the responsibilities of life. Just as places began to open up on Friday it is the weekend, but we are expecting this next week to be full and productive. All the children will begin school again on Monday.

Here is a list of dates and locations where Rhonda will be speaking about our work in Cambodia and updating you with our current activities. If you're able, please make plans to meet her while she is there. Contact names and numbers have been provided where available.

We would ask that you, our friends and family, to please pray and consider additional support towards her travel expenses to the States and funds needed during her stay.  At this point, we anticipate that an additional $3,000 will be necessary to cover these costs.  Your love and generosity are always so much appreciated and we pray that God will bless your giving abundantly beyond what we can even imagine.

We are so thankful for each and every one of you.  It is always our hope when we do an update that we will clearly show the ministry here.  We understand and know very well that we are a small part of this team.  Our love goes out to all of you. 

Mark and Rhonda Benz and family
