To all our friends and family-
We want to wish you a blessed Thanksgiving! We can?t tell you what a blessing it is to be from a nation that still gives ?Thanks?. We have much to be thankful for.
Today in Cambodia they have declared a day of mourning in response to the tragedy on Monday night. The nation is still in shock. Many people are afraid of ghosts and are putting offerings in front of their houses consisting of fruit, incense, a candle, a bowl of rice, and a cup of water(see pictures attached). So in some ways it is a very strange day, ?Bittersweet? in a lot of ways. Churches are using this time as a time of prayer. OMF is having a prayer meeting, as well as facilitating a meeting to process grief for our Cambodian staff.
Thanks for your prayers for Cambodia. It truly is a Nation that suffers greatly.
With love and thanks,
Matt, Casey, Micah, & Jordan
