Three branch Sabbath schools
have begun during this past six
months, making a total of six be-
ing conducted each Sabbath after-
noon. The total attendance aver-
ages about 130. We have seen
two baptisms as a result and a
doctor and his wife are preparing
for baptism soon.
We are also glad to report an
active MV society and Pathfinder
club. In April a very successful
youth camp was held at a water-
fall forty miles from Chiengmel.
Seventeen campers enjoyed six
days of outdoor tiving and Chris-
tian fellowship under the leadership
of the mission MV secretary, Nai
Gumjon.
It was with mixed feelings that
a large group went to the train
station on May 8, to bid farewell
to five young men who were leav-
ing to enter a two-year training
period at Thailand's new training
school in Ubol, northeast Thailand.
All of these young men had been
active workers here in Chiengmei
and we will miss their enthusiasm
and helpfulness. We look forward
to the time when they will return
to take their place in God's work
here. Please continue to pray for
the work of God here in Chieng-
Thailand.

Phnom Penh Effort
R. E. Neal
Nearly 50 Cambodians crowded
into the Phnom Penh chapel house,
and another 30-50 stood outside in
the rain, for our opening evan-
gelistic meeting on May 28. The
subject “When Men Visit Other
Worlds,” was illustrated with Ko-
dachrome slides of rockets and
stars.
The same subject was given a
week later for the opening Chinese
evengelistic meeting. The address
was translated into Chinese by
Brother Giang Tu Minh. who has
labored faithfully in Phnom Penh
since his graduation from South-
east Asia Union College two years
ago.
Meetings are continuing with
excellent attendance four times a
week —twice for Cambodians and
twice for Chinese. The series is
planned to run at least 10 weeks.
The most effective means of
advertising has been a series of
spot announcements on the local
radio station. The only other ad-
vertising used was an attractive
handbill printed locally by offset.
The chapel is more than filled
without additional advertising.

We rejoice in being able to begin
direct evangelism for the Cam-
bodians at last. We look forward
to the harvest of souls which must
be waiting the Lord's call, and we
also long for the day when we can
have a larger auditorium in a
church building of our own.
