Visit to Wildlife Reserve with Good News Wesleyan Church

This past Sunday, we were invited to join the members of Good News Wesleyan as they traveled to a wildlife park on a Sunday afternoon. Here you are seeing several of our friends posing at the park.


We brought food to eat for lunch, a buffet for them, and we tried many different Khmer dishes that we had not previously eaten. Here you are seeing Pastor Chantol and her husband Sonikol with one of the lay leaders of the church, Boleak.


A highlight of the afternoon was the visit to see the performing elephant. After dancing for several minutes to a variety of Khmer dance songs, the elephant began playing soccer. Here you are seeing the elephant passing the ball back to the trainer after the trainer had kicked it to him.


We had a great time of fellowship with the families of the pastors. Here you are seeing Pastor Poleak and his wife Pastor Malout and one of the their twin boys, getting ready to leave on their moto.


On the drive home, we stopped by a roadside stand to buy beef that had been slaughtered that morning. I told Looksrey that we would show this picture to our friends in the United States because they would not believe the fact that you could just stop your car alongside the road and buy a quarter of beef.
