Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in phnom penh, cambodia

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in phnom penh, cambodia
Christmas Eve and Christmas Day are regular work days here in Buddhist Cambodia so our Christmas Eve mass was scheduled at 6:00 PM to allow people to get off from work and then come to the service which was held at the Korean Ecumenical Center. Normally we use World Vision's larger auditorium but they won't allow us to be in their building after 6:30 PM so tonight we switched venues.  Here Sr. Regina (second left) helps to set up a nativity scene before mass. Renting halls for our services means that we have to bring everything we want to use each time we want to have a service, which is quite a headache, especially for special celebrations like Christmas. We are very fortunate to have a very generous and very dedicated Filipino community who take care of many of the different tasks for our services.
