Cambodia Christian School Network (CCSN)

Development at the future college in Rongko continues.

In Mid-February, we received the great news that the third building is completed. This building is currently planned to serve as the computer lab, computer training center and educational and spiritual de-velopment staff offices.

Early in February, CCSN had a group of experts from a Cambodian computer company (including an electrician) travel  to the campus to review the plans and evaluate the needs. They looked at all three buildings and discussed the electrical need and how to best accommodate it. They looked at each classroom and discussed the needs to provide the best teaching environment. They looked at the rooms planned for the computer lab and training center and discussed how many computer stations would best serve the need and space. They looked at the room which is used for church services, bible classes and meetings and discussed what is needed to use it to its best capacity. They also discussed the needs for a library and offices.

CCSN has received resumes from several people concerning positions in administration and teaching at the university. Also, 25 students have already enrolled to attend the Technical Institute at the university once it starts. Many more have taken application forms but have not returned them yet.

We are praising God for the wonderful developments of this school. It will be an example to all of Cambodia of God’s love for them.

Children’s Homes
(Partnership with NHO)

A special time within Raising Kids, SEAPC Global Sponsorships, is when letters (and sometimes small gifts) from the children arrive. We just received the letters from the children within New Hope Children’s Homes. I am blessed with the joy of seeing how much the children have grown while printing their photos and seeing their joy in their letters to their sponsors as I double check to make sure that the correct letters are in the correct envelopes. The sponsors are important to the kids. They view their sponsors as “spiritual parents” and, therefore, often call them mom and dad. This time, there were many “thank you’s” for Christmas gifts received. Here are examples of what the kids have written:

“I am very happy that dad and mom love me. May God bless you all. I’ll pray for you all…”

– Touch, boy, age 12

“I want to tell you that I love you, thanks for your supported me. Thanks for your gift on Christmas day. … Thank you for your care about me. I want to tell you that I love you so much.”

– Sreyhoung, girl, age 13

“I’m fine. Thank you for gift. … Wish you happiness and blessing from the Lord. I love you mommy.”

– Soleab, girl, age 5

“Thanks daddy for you have gave me the present … Thanks God for he has bless me the present. I really happy here, the houseparent also love me.”

– Chhit, boy, age 7

“Do you know, mom, you are the best gift from the Lord to me you are the same of my born mom.”

– Thally, girl, age 16

在 Rongko 興建未來大學的計畫繼續進行著。

二月中旬，我們接到大好的消息：第三棟建築完工了！這棟建築目前計畫用作電腦室、電腦訓練中心、以及教育與屬靈發展員工辦公室。

二月初，CCSN 請一批專家到校園勘察，評估我建校計劃與需求，他們來自柬埔寨的一家電腦公司，隨行的還有一位電工技師。他們勘察了這三棟建築，討論有關電方面的需求，設法找出最好的方案。他們看了每一間教室，討論如何提供最好的教學環境。他們看了計劃用作電腦室和訓練中心的教室，討論要設置多少台電腦站，將空間作最大利用，盡量滿足需求。有一個空間是作為教會聚會、聖經課程以及開會之用，他們也仔細勘察，討論要如何設置，使空間利用達到最大效益。他們也討論到圖書館與辦公室的需要。

CCSN 已經收到一些人的履歷資料，申請大學行政與教學的職位。此外，已有二十五名學生註冊，只等大學的科技學院開學。還有很多人拿了申請表，尚未繳交報名。

讚美主，這所學校能有如此美好的進展，它將成為一個明證，讓所有的柬埔寨人民知道，神是如此愛他們。

兒童之家（與 NHO 合作）
收到孩子們寄來的信或小禮物，對東南亞禱告中心全球贊助計畫“栽培兒童”來說，是一個特別的時刻。我們才剛收到「新盼望兒童之家」(NHO)的孩子寄來的信。處理信件的過程中，看到孩子們的成長，令我倍感欣慰，真是一大祝福。我一邊印出這些孩子的照片，一邊檢查每一封信是不是都放在對的信封裡，讀著他們寫給贊助者的信，看到他們的喜樂。贊助者對孩子們是很重要的，他們把贊助者當作「屬靈父母」，因此，常稱他們爸爸、媽媽。這一批的信件中，有許多是因著收到聖誕禮物而寫的感謝信。以下是一些孩子們所寫的：

「我很高興爸爸媽媽愛我。上帝祝福你們每一個人。我會為你們禱告……」
－ Touch, 十二歲男孩

「我要告訴你們，我愛你們，謝謝你們支持我，謝謝你們的聖誕禮物……謝謝你們關心我。我要告訴你們，我好愛你們。」
－ Sreyhoung十三歲女孩

「我很好。謝謝你的禮物……祝你有從主來的快樂和祝福。媽咪，我愛你。」
－ Soleab，五歲女孩

「謝謝爹地給我禮物……謝謝上帝讓我有禮物。我在這裡真的很開心，這裡的家長也愛我。」
－ Chhit，七歲男孩

「你知道嗎？媽媽，你是主給我最棒的禮物。你和生我的媽媽一樣。」
－ Thally，十六歲女孩
