Mission to Cambodia 2014
from Kathryn Nichols, Nursing student
On Wednesday we took a van to a village 2 hours outside of Bottambong. We drive an hour on a paved road and an hour on an incredibly bumpy dirt road. When we finally got to the village all of the people were very excited to see us. The people there knew little about basic hygiene so we taught them about hand washing and why it is important. We also did blood pressures and prayed with some of the adults that were feeling sick. It was an exciting experience being in a Cambodian village. We got a chance to really love on all of the people there. We played duck, duck, goose and a couple other games with the children and they loved it. In the afternoon we went to a bible study and midweek service with a local Church of Christ. It still amazes me how happy and welcoming everyone is here. They are always smiling and excited to see you.
