Our Sweet Stay at Wat Preah Yesu’s Jungle House

by Ephraim Arriesgado

They named it the “Jungle House” and at first I was so curious. 


The Klement Backpacking and Ministry team with participants from Thailand and the Philippines had just arrived at Wat Preah Yesu Orphanage in Siem Reap, Cambodia for a week-end mission trip. Wat Preah Yesu Orphanage houses many families and children that have come to the facility to seek shelter and gain an education. The orphanage also operates a school, a recording studio, and a church. To us, it was a great opportunity for ministry and service in that corner of the world.


Upon our arrival, we were greeted by no less than the couple who labored to establish Wat Preah Yesu Orphanage, Tim Maddocks and his wife, Wendy. The team had traveled a hundred miles, and their warm welcome took away all the pains of the journey.
