I went on an exchange with Sister Dy this week (old companion) and we had a blast! She is hilarious and we had a great time working together again. We also had a stake conference this week where the leadership urged all the members to get on the south stake boat and help save all those who are drowning around us and to get ourselves and our families ready to go to the temple. I can't wait for the temple to come to Cambodia it is the biggest blessing and as a result of it's announcement the work is just exploding right now.
We got 3 member referrals this week and they all seem really excited and ready to receive the gospel. We have ming veancheangchan who is vietnamese who has been to every christian church here in cambodia but said she just is having trouble finding the right one. We had a member come with us and bore powerful testimony of the truthfulness of this church and the power of prayer. Om Bon came to church this week and said she just feels so much peace in the church and said she wants to come every week. Sitha is the niece of our relief society president and is constantly surrounded by good influences and also has a little christian background.
We have Phearom and Srei Pov lined up for baptism this week and hopefully Chinda. It should be an exciting week!
We have a recent convert Sok Khim and she has such a powerful testimony. She has a son who is 3 and can't yet walk or talk and is really hard to control but she just said "Sisters I know that Heavenly Father is blessing me, I pray everyday for help and even though I know a miracle won't happen in just one day I know eventually the blessings will come as I am faithful and continue to ask in faith." This reminded me of a scripture in Doctrine and Covenants 58:3-4
"3 Ye cannot behold with your
4 For after much tribulation
I love this scripture and I know that God has so many miracles and blessings to give us as we push forward with faith through our tribulations!!
Love Sister Stratford
