A Trip to View Land

 Friday, March 23, 2012 we took a trip out of Phnom Penh about 30 minutes to see some land that this woman wanted to donate to the Church.  It was a hot day, but some of this was muddy enough that we could only drive so far then we walked to the Eastern boundary.
 We took a member with us who helped translate and also we wanted her to fellowship this sister, since she is less active.  We also took the Pochentong Branch Elders, Elder Nelson and Elder Blocker, with us because this woman is in their branch. She agreed with Scott that the Elders could come to visit and help teach some of her family who aren't members.


 We were on the walk. It was so hot and dry!
This sister invited us to one of her homes and her family came ahead of time and cooked an all authentic Cambodia food including the Durian, which wasn't too bad.  The woman on the left cooked the food.
They also presented me with 3 1/2 dozen roses?  I don't know what was so special about me coming that they wanted to give me that many roses.  The only thing I could think was that because I am a companion to the mission president! Anyway, I enjoyed them for a good week. I even shared some with Sister Snyder!
