Sareth is the name of our in-country host. He is 38 years old and has lived in Cambodia his entire life. He has lived through the Killing Fields of the 70's and has a rich story to share with others. He was six years old when his family was torn apart by the Khmer Rouge and has many stories of a difficult survival. I have been impressed with how well he knows his culture and has such a caring heart for his people. He has studied in the United States, but said that he would never live there because he would miss his home and his people too much.
Sareth makes us laugh all the time as he has a great repertoire of jokes and stories. He is so warm and friendly and the kids love him. Yesterday he lectured them for about 30 minutes on the importance of education and how that can change lives. He says that his country's biggest need isn't money but education. I am so thankful that their are men like Sareth...wanting to bring the Kingdom of God to their people. Please pray for Sareth and the folks that work with him through Cadence International.
