Our team in Cambodia lives daily life alongside their Khmer friends, engaging with cultural and community events and celebrations. They serve the community through supporting local schools, offering therapy for children with disabilities, mentoring young people and discipling Khmer believers.
“While Cambodia continues to develop, the rhythms of the seasons, cultural customs and spiritual practices still shape community life. Our team shares in these rhythms, engaging with the community through peace building and reconciliation, working with children with disabilities, men’s and women’s groups, community gardening, community visiting, shadow puppet storytelling, health education, English teaching, discipleship and local faith leadership training.
Living across both urban and rural communities, our team shares God’s love holistically, walking alongside people in their day-to-day contexts. We are seeing God work as Khmer people seek ways of healing, reconciliation and transformation in their own lives and in their communities.”
