SBS Progress and Airline Ticket

John, Roberta, and SARAH in
Siem Reap, Cambodia

Greetings from Cambodia family and friends!!!

We hope that you all had a great holiday season and enjoyed making great memories. Roberta and I definitely missed the cold and warmth of the holiday season with family and friends this year, but we’re resting in God’s perfect plan for us.

As many of you may know, Roberta lost her grandmother last week. It has been a very difficult time of being away from family. Please continue to keep her and the whole family in prayer as they grieve the loss of their grandmother.

The School of Biblical Studies has been going amazing!! Never have I been so in love with the Bible as I am now. Don’t get me wrong I have always enjoyed the Bible, but now I love the Bible even more! We have completed all of the New Testament but Matthew and we are beginning the book of Leviticus this upcoming week. Roberta and I have been absolutely loving seeing who God is through the Bible. Thus far we have each put in more than 700 hours of Bible study. On top of all that Berta has been working with a local cafe owned and run by the YWAM base here, she has been helping with job training of some of the employees there. I have been mostly focusing on my Bible study along with Berta, but I have also had many opportunities to help around the Base with IT work. We have built amazing relationships the people here so far, please continue to pray for our time here that it would continue to be even more fruitful than the first half of the school.

It is with humility that we come to you and ask for your help! We are trusting God and know he will work everything out, but we are seeking out support for our tickets home after the School of Biblical Studies is finished! Our summer plans have been revised, a lot of flying is happening before we settle in back to the States! Here is our upcoming journeys...

• Cambodia -> New York
• This is our main leg of the trip and it will cost about $1,600.
• New York -> San Francisco
• After this hard time away from her family, We have made the decision in faith to go home to spend some time with her family. This will be about $600 from NY for both of our tickets.
• San Francisco -> Seattle


• The last quick leg of the trip will be hopefully less than about $400.

These are all estimates as we have been doing research. We ask that in this time of need you would prayerfully consider giving towards our ticket home.

HOW TO GIVE: A tax deductible donation is possible through the our my home church (Faith Reformed) back home, for more info please click here. In addition, you can give online to us if you click here.

AGAIN, we thank you so much for how much you have blessed us over the years. we are deeply grateful!

LOVE,

John and Roberta
