Answered Prayers   

 1)  Earlier this month we asked you to pray:

  "Pray for wisdom for Kees Jan,linguist with ICC, to know how to approach issues concerning the Kuy language orthography with government officials.  Pray that Kees Jan would find favor in the sight of the government officials and that they would be open to improvements to the orthography and to new literacy projects to be started by ICC with Kuy people."

     Kees Jan reports that he had a very good meeting with the Ministry of Education officials. They were favorable towards his suggestions. He is meeting with a government linguist this week to go over the Kuy alphabet and look at where it can be improved. The government wants to make changes before they print some materials for the Kuy people later this year.

 2)  Last fall you prayed for Matt and Ben, two Fijian missionaries coming to work among the Kuy people. They arrived late January. They are settled in a little apartment in a village-like neighborhood here in Phnom Penh and are studying Khmer. Within a couple of weeks they already had started nightly English conversation lessons and a small gathering to share the gospel on Sunday evenings in their house! Ben is helping coach soccer at a local High School. They are doing very well. Please continue to pray for their Khmer language abilities.
