Switched to WordPress

Greetings Everyone:

After doing some research we have decided to switch over to using WordPress for the Projects official blog. There are two main reasons for this:

1. Blogger does not support multiple pages (WordPress does), and
2. I can post blogs as well as images to WordPress with my phone (Blogger does not have that functionality as of yet).
   

Heres the new URL: http://hope4cambodia.wordpress.com/

Cheers!

Just Purchased Our Flights!!!

Ok, so the official dates for the trip are Oct. 4 through Oct. 25th!!! Boy do I hate purchasing airfair online! It causes a little piece of me to die inside each time.

We are flying out on EVA Airways. Anybody ever heard of it?

shots...

...I hate them. Just got my first round today and my left arm feels like it lost a dead arm punching contest. Oh well. Guess its better than typhoid.

More Pieces Falling Together

Ok, so Micah and I decided to not turn this into one of those gimme gimme projects where we are whining about all the stuff we need all the time (not that we don't have needs but we don't like guilt tripping people into giving).

Anyway, here's how cool God is in putting a desire on peoples hearts to help play a part. I have known this wonderful lady named Tracy and her son for the last few years now through work. I guess I ended up mentioning what we were going to be doing in Cambodia to her son somehow a while back and he relayed the fact to his mom. Now fast forward to Wednesday this week. We were meeting with Tracy discussing some potential business and she asks me about my trip so I give her a short summary of the situation and what we were doing. She got very excited about it and told me that she would like to talk further about how she could play a part of which I was more than happy to do. Well she decided to set up a fundraiser for our project at a very nice and trendy restaurant downtown before we ever got a chance to get together to discuss the project further. She gave me the call yesterday and we will be setting up the details for the event this coming Tuesday. HOW COOL IS THAT!!!!!

I don't have any more details on the event but I will post them as soon as I do.

Until then, blessings on all of you.

Major Apologies Necessary

Greetings everyone!!

I feel that I owe all of you a very large apology. It has been some time since I have made any posts to the blog and I feel very bad about that. Essentially, life has been a bit crazy over the last few months and I let some things slide.

We have not let our preparations for the documentary slide though and I am happy to bring you this short update.

1. We pushed the filming date back to Oct. 1st due to the fact that Don and Bridget (two very key individuals at Agape) would not be able to be there until then. The film just would not be complete without them.
2. We have had a number of wonderful people offer us their equipment to use and we are more than happy to take them up on that offer. One of those people is our good friend Rolland Smith who is letting us borrow his lighting kit.
3. Its getting down to crunch time. We've got two months left and we are really starting to get excited. Clay was back in town a few weeks ago and we were able to get together with him to hash out some of the nitty gritty details of the project.

I will do my best from now on to update this thing at least every few days (even if it is nothing more than me saying "hey we're still here and we are still going."

I appreciate you all and thank you for your support and your prayers.

Many Blessings!!
