Andrew Smith is with us again - the third time in two years. He is getting well known and appreciated now, bringing huge value to Cambodia in his field of expertise - counselling. He's just finished two days training at Hagar - teaching their counsellors on the theme of 'resilience'. Interestingly, there is no word in Khmer for 'resilient'.
Andrew has done a couple of sessions at the Healing Home too, with another two mornings scheduled for this week. Then there was the men's breakfast last Saturday and a bunch of other things too.
One of the many things I respect about Andrew is his commitment to the young generation. Last year he came here with young Ben from Masterton in tow. This year he has brought Jonathan, a student at Faith Bible College, Tauranga. They leave us on Saturday.
Mucking in - we have a leak in our fishpond so, following his training session with our staff last Friday, we took full advantage of Andrew's willingness to lend a hand. I thought that I had plugged the leak yesterday, but my joy was short-lived. Meanwhile, the little fishies have taken up residence in a water trough inside the outside loo.
