The story of how God establish His School in Cambodia 13 (2015.10.20) People in Cambodia gets very excited in November because it is a festival season. There is a festival called Bon Om Touk in November which can be translated as ‘Water Festival’. The festival is to commemorate the victory in the 12th century of the Angkorian era. Cambodians think this had achieved peace and prosperity. The King, Preah Bath Jayavarman VII, (regarded as one of the greatest kings) led the victory in a naval war against the neighboring Chams (Vietnam). In this festival season, teams of competitors prepare to race in Water Festival boat races on the Tonle Sap river (part of the Mekong river) in Phnom Penh. There are fire works at night as well. It is a great time of festival with lots of fun. When there are festivals, we wonder whether there will be a time when the people in Cambodia will be joyful because of God. In the villages, most of the people do not know what Christmas is, which means they do not know who Jesus is and why he came to the Earth. For His International Services the first and foremost purpose of His School project is to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. We are also committed to provide quality education, knowing too that Cambodia needs the gospel of Jesus Christ. Pray that the nation of Cambodia will one day be excited because of the gospel of Jesus Christ 1. Bon Om Touk (Water Festival) in November is a 3-day public holiday.
