感謝主，我們於10月30日晚上11時安全抵達柬埔寨金邊。感恩能在加拿大兩年半後，回到我們的第二個家。同工、會友及朋友們都很高興見到我們。

        有兩兄弟提前在11月底為我們舉辦了聖誕晚宴。我們與他們一家在餐館享受了一頓豐盛的晚餐，還有聖誕蛋糕、禮物和禮金。兄弟二人在1998年從村裡來上大學，那時他們貧窮，因可以住在我們教會的宿舍而感恩。現在他們在金邊各自開辦了有名的國際學校。最讓我們感動的一件事，是他們一直在經濟上支持偏遠村莊的傳道，這位傳道人在98年時和他們同住在我們的大學生宿舍。他們兩兄弟以前住宿舍時得著祝福，現在一樣去祝福別人！

        當全世界正在準備慶祝聖誕節，願神賜下平安，喜樂及和平。讓全球知道聖誕節是耶穌誕生的日子！

感恩事項：

1. 我們在加拿大上機回柬埔寨時有些波節，曾收到消息，我們可以在金邊機場做「落地簽證」，30日後再申請延期半年。但在上機前一天，才發現如沒有柬埔寨簽證，加拿大航空公司是不發登機證的。只好馬上訂30日後去泰國的機票再入境。可是當上機時，又要有旅館預訂證明。感謝主，我們旅途平安，到達金邊時順利取得「落地簽證」一個月，現在已辦了延期簽證。
2. 與會友、同工們久別重逢，都看見神保守了他們的信心和工作的能力。
3. 教會有新人來聚會，兩星期前有一名女士決志信主。
4. 在十一月時，已有青年人提出由他們負責今年教會的聖誕節佈置，他們更為所需的金錢奉獻。

代禱事項：

1. 教會地契由兩位信徒作為企名人，其中一人已返天家多年，另一位有病，她提出從企名人中退下來。我們正在搜尋所需要的文件，並請一位基督徒律師幫忙。
2. 教會定於在明年3月8日（公眾假期）舉行水禮，有4位新信的會參加水禮班。
3. 明年1月13日教會舉行第一次家庭聚會，希望以後可以每月相聚一次。

        謝謝大家參與我們在柬埔寨的事工，感謝你們的支持及禱告！
        祝賀大家聖誕蒙福，新年恩典滿溢！

Dear family, brothers and sisters in Christ,

        Praise the Lord we arrived safely in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on October 30 at 11pm local time. We’re grateful that we can come back to our second home after 2 and half years in Canada. Our members, staff and friends are happy to see us back.

        There was an early Christmas dinner hosted by 2 brothers at the end of November for us. They and their families came, and we enjoyed a nice dinner with Christmas cake and presents. The 2 brothers came to study in university from the village in 1998. They were poor so they stayed in the dorm at our church. Now they have opened international schools with many students all over Phnom Penh. One thing that impresses us the most is that they have been supporting one pastor financially in the remote village. This pastor stayed in the same dorm with them before. They said they want to bless others as they were blessed before.

        As the world is busy getting ready to celebrate Christmas, we pray that the people will understand the real meaning of Christmas. May God grant hope, peace, and joy to everyone.

        Thank you for partnering with us in our ministry through your support and prayers. Please continue to praise God for His work in Cambodia and remember our prayer requests.

Praise items:

• Arrived in Phnom Penh safely after a few issues on boarding in Canada.
• Great to see our church members, the staff of our church and school, and friends.
• New faces coming to church. A lady received Jesus as her Savior 2 weeks ago.
• Some of the members of the youth group are working. They gave money for the decoration of the Christmas celebration of the church. Pray that more people will be reached.

Prayer requests:

• Changing names on our church land title. One of the 2 names in the old land title went to heaven about 10 years ago and the other who wants to take her name away because she is sick with cancer.
• Baptismal class for 4 applicants to be baptized on March 8.
• First home group will meet on January 13. Planning to meet at different homes once a month. Pray that the members will have closer fellowship.

        Have a blessed Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year!

In His service,            
Joseph and Liza Ng
