And because of the partnership between the orphanage and New Life Foundation, she has the opportunity to stay in New Life Student Dormitory. At that time, she was the youngest one among other 19 students. she was a Christian back then but had never experienced a relationship with Him.

Sreyleak said” I have been staying in the dorm for almost 5 years now. I have seen many areas in my life have completely changed. The dorm has helped me with the journey and relationship I have with God by joining the church services and serving in the church ministry. The devotion time with other sisters in the dorm brings me even closer to God. Not only that it has helped me to walk my life with Jesus, but it has also given me the opportunity to love and care for other people who live with me as well. Moreover, the dorm has provided leadership training and life skill. Through the training I have received, I have become a mature Christian and a leader.  In 2021, I graduated bachelor’s degree in psychology. Nowadays, I still stay in the dorm because I want to pass on what I have received to the younger generation. My heart is always grateful for this opportunity. I also thank you student Dormitory for giving me a safe place to grow.
