The vision

Equip. Train. Launch.

We’re not just sending mission trips. We’re building a permanent place in Cambodia where disciples are made, trades are learned, and a new generation goes out to change their nation.

Spiritual formation
Building on 25 years of local discipleship through faithful local pastors and leaders with growing congregations already on the ground in Cambodia.
Vocational training
Agriculture, healthcare, education, and trades — giving young Cambodians a way to make a living and carry the Gospel wherever they go.
Sending & launching
A place to land, be equipped, and go. Christian doctors, teachers, and farmers — taking the Lord with them into every corner of Cambodia.

Stories of change

God is already moving

We’ve seen it with our own eyes. Here are two stories from the ground in Cambodia.

Mission trip in Cambodia

She hadn’t been able to hear or speak for years. We all laid hands on her together, and something shifted. She raised her right hand. She could hear.

Witnessed on a recent mission trip — Phnom Penh region

Twenty years ago, a small donation built a water well at our camp. During a severe drought, it became the only source of water for the entire village. It is still serving Cambodians today.

Legacy of a faithful donor — the well that changed a village

Grace Will Lead Me Home by Albert Cheng

The book

From the Killing Fields
to the Grace of God

Albert Cheng survived the Khmer Rouge genocide that claimed nearly a quarter of Cambodia’s population. He escaped the killing fields, fled to a refugee camp in Thailand, and eventually found a new life in Texas — but it was an encounter with Jesus Christ in 1997 that changed everything.

Grace Will Lead Me Home is his story — raw, honest, and full of hope. It is the account of a man who walked through unimaginable darkness and found, on the other side, a grace that would not let him go. And now he is going back to share that grace with his own people.
