Gambles Newsletter                                    01/23/19                               Volume 4, Issue 10 serving Cambodia through engineering design and discipleship Pix 1.  Miriam got a Spiritually Maturing award at school 2.  Nathan and Chesna came to Cambodia for Christmas 3.  Moses feeding an elephant.  We also got to wash it.  We all learned that their poop is really big! 4.  Shanthi and Chad at Sen Moronom waterfall 5.  Close up of a frog on Bokor Mtn. 6.  This metallic blue butterfly visited Shanthi several times.  $5 Starbucks card to the first person to correctly tell us what type of butterfly it is. Big Changes Chad needs a new phone And you can help!  There's a local company that's giving away a phone to the comment on the FB page with the most likes.  So would you click here and like his comment. His comment is towards the top.  Contest ends Jan 30th US time.  The record to beat currently is 96.   This Week Chad is headed to Colorado Springs, CO for some meetings to discuss business as mission.  Miriam is headed to a school retreat focused on serving a local community.  Moses is headed to a school retreat focused on adventure and team building.  Shanthi will stay behind and welcome our first intern who will be staying in our house for the Spring semester.  This Month Shanthi is starting to teach an IGCSE Science class at a nearby school for 10th graders for the remainder of the school year.  She's excited but has to spend time figuring out how to teach this British curriculum. This Summer We're headed back to the US for June and July this summer!  We're all very excited to see family and friends again and spend Chesna's first summer home from college with her. $5 Starbucks card to the first person who can house 5 of us in the Roseville area for the whole summer.  Heck - we'll give you a Starbucks gift card for $20! This Next School Year Shanthi has accepted a job offer to teach Math at the kid's school for the next two school years.  She's excited about getting to do math every day!     Pray for the new interns and Khmer staff architect who are starting soon. Chad has a problem with his sciatic nerve and will be spending 43.5 hours on a plane over the next couple of weeks as he flies to Colorado. Please pray for relief from the pain. គ្រូ មួយ មោ៉ង ក៏ ជា គ្រូ ដែរ   Sounds like "crew moy mowng gu jee-uh crew die"    A teacher for 1 hour is a teacher forever If you have had a pupil-teacher relationship with someone for a period of time, they deserve your esteem in the future.  You may later come to be on a similar social level to them or higher, but they ought to be given the same degree of respect and gratitude as before. Miriam's Massages (or was that messages?) You know that kids say the darnedest things.  Here you will get a few funny quotes from our kids. Shanthi said, "She's been on drugs her whole life." Miriam responded with, "Who? Me?"  I should think Miriam would know if she had been on drugs her whole life, but I guess it's always good to check. Moses explained, "I'm an omnivore.  But I don't eat plants.  So I'm a meativore.  Eggs are plants too.  I'm a plant.  Humans can go through photosynthesis."  Wow!  He's even taking a biology class as a freshman in high school.  Makes you wonder what he's learning. Moses' Corner Kick Too busy with basketball and homework and camp next week to write something this month. -----------------This just in-------------------- I am excited that I can go back to america this summer. It was a hard decision for us but in the end we agreed to come back. Basketball season is coming to an end which makes me sad but also happy at the same time. Soccer season is our last season and that is the sport where i can actually contribute in. I have been practice on and off this year. I decided to make it an interesting season so i decided to buy cleats that no one would forget. I bought them from adidas and they aren't the first color you would expect me to wear.
