Clean Water on the Tonle Sap Lake

Life on the Tonle Sap Lake in Cambodia just got better.

This team of Americans from left Dr. Dale Denham, Tommy Kirk, Steve and Mitch Gaines and Rich K. came to Cambodia for one reason to give the people on the Tonle Sap Lake clean drinking water. Tommy Kirk invented the filtration system and the three others helped him install it on the PCL ( People for Care and Learning) boat. Praise God! This is an amazing thing and this is only the beginning.

In this photo are the holding tanks

In these photos the people are making rice noodles to celebrate the harvest. They use a can with holes in the bottom and a press to push the rice that looks like a white soupy paste through into the boiling water. The noodles rice to the top as they get done.

Takam Village Church Service

Sen always likes to start off joking with the people and get them laughing and then they sing some worship songs.

Sen is interpreting for Julie.

This is some of the people who came to hear the word.

This little guy just sat or laid down on this bench next to Julie while she was teaching the word of God to the people. Yes there are Christians in this village! Thank you God for Julie and many others like her working here in Cambodia give hope to those who had none. He was so cute and the look on his face is priceless!

We had to pass between the cows on the motorcycles to get to where we were headed. they didn't even notice us.

Takam Village

Not a fun job, but they are happy to have the food.

The little ones playing on the side of the path we were riding on with motorcycles.

Rice being harvested.

In these photos we are headed to the village but not yet there and I had to stop and get some shots of the farmers harvesting the rice. It is so beautiful and green right now.
