New Year Blessing

Ted and Sou are showered with blessings for the Cambodian New Year

 

April has about a two week hole in the middle of the month when very little happens. Government and many businesses just shut down due to Cambodian New Year. It is the biggest celebration of the Year, and though there are only four official days of vacation, somehow it gets stretched out on both ends, and makes it very hard to get things done. Prices go up, and permits are impossible to obtain. Regardless, it is fun a time where people go to visit and honor their families. Mak Sou and I were prayed for, and gave blessings for a good hour at church Sunday April 16th. In the process we were doused with jasmine scented water. We were both soaked and greatly blessed!
