Sharing the message of hope

By Bishop Sreyleak Tuch | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia

I was the first in my family to become a Christian. I was 18 years old when I heard the gospel and felt it was very meaningful to me. At first, my family were not happy. They didn’t kick me out, but they didn’t treat me normally, either. My friends also distanced themselves from me. […]

Prayer is simply, by faith, the articulation of our heart’s response to that which begins in the heart of God. The Trinity are so intimately connected that their thoughts form the continual communion and community that is prayer. Their first recorded internal conversation and prayer (let there be light, let there be life) begins the […]

Sharing food for the soul

Steam rises from slowly roasted peanuts and bodies are cooled from stifling heat with fresh-pressed sugarcane juice and coconut ice cream sundaes. Men and women use the tiers of the chan srak food containers to transport rice, a few dishes and a dessert as an offering to monks on behalf of deceased relatives, under the […]

The Living Witness of Ecumenical Fellowship in Asia

By Dr Mathews George Chunakara | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia Peninsula, Malaysia Sabah, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand

More than six decades ago, when church leaders in Asia gathered to envision a new form of Christian unity, they laid the foundation for what would become the Christian Conference of Asia (CCA), the first regional ecumenical organisation in the world. Their guiding vision still resonates today: “Believing that the purpose of God for the […]

Please pray for my ministry

By Rev Yin Dara | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia

I grew up in Cambodia in a poor family. My dad and oldest sister passed away and for most of my childhood, my mother raised me and my brothers and sisters on her own. My uncle is a follower of Jesus and gave me a Bible, which I burnt. He would sing Christian songs and […]

A deepening of faith in Cambodia

By Y Franklin Ishida | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia

Cambodia is known as the “Kingdom of Wonder.” Part of this reputation comes from its many juxtapositions: it’s exhilarating and devastating, beautiful and challenging, poor and thriving.
