A Church in a Province
Trinity Lutheran Church of Battambang has been in existence the longest of all the Lutheran churches in Cambodia. It has also gone thru a few chapters in its life too over the years.
We are having a lovely meal with Pastor Kosal this evening after the group takes on some shopping in Thailand (we can’t go due to passport issues). We enjoy time with Sevi on the Cambodian side of the road while the locals do their market jaunt across the border.
Then on the way out, we stop at a couple local orchards to sample their harvest. Neither one I’ve had before.
Not to waste the afternoon the third stop is an orchard as well, but this one comes with a gorgeous stream that we can putter in the water and relax. It reminds us of the Rifle River in MI, not too deep, clear, cool, fresh.
Dinner at Trinity Lutheran Church was prepared by the local ladies. Of course there are buckets of rice, a soup, and a vegetable stir fry. It’s more apparent to me than before that kids don’t like foods mixed together either. Dalis chooses what her girls will eat from the two dishes, but mainly its rice and a couple of egg yolks, not much else. Thereafter, we are off back to the hotel for the night before the night insects find us.
