Christmas in Cambodia 2006

Christmas Decorating at Maryknoll Sisters' 17 December 2006 The Maryknoll Sisters have a tradition in Cambodia of decorating their Christmas tree and house a week before Christmas, an event to which they invite all the Maryknoll family. It's one of the first (and only!) events of the Christmas season here, a lot of good conversation with some simple food and always some wonderful dessert.

Ed McGovern, Mary Little, Bernadette Duggan, and Regina Pellicore get started on the evening's work Luise Ahrens, Jim Noonan, and Kevin Conroy enjoy a conversation while they supervise the others' work While the grown-ups start the tree decorations, some neighborhood children decorate Christmas cookies in the kitchen Jim Noonan, Kevin Conroy, Kathy Morefield, Bill Burns, and John Morefield Ayan Matutina, Bill Burns, and Bernadette Duggan Finally it was time to eat!
