GBC-AK 8th Anniversary

We celebrated the 8th Church Anniversary of GBC-Anlong K'ngan just after our Missions Conference.  While we are not growing as much as we want, we are happy to see some of the members of our church growing in their understanding of God's word and in their desire to serve the Lord.  It is always a blessing to see visitors come on special occasions like this and it is a great blessing to see them come to trust the Lord as their Savior in the service.  Rejoice with us for the 2 precious souls that got saved on our anniversary Sunday.  It is always a highlight when people are ushered into the Lord's kingdom on any worship day!

Missions Conference 2010

We held our annual Missions Conference at GBC-Anlong K'ngan las May 5-7, 2010.  It is our primary desire to teach our people to realize and be actively involved in the greatest task of all, that of reaching the world with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.  We tried to encourage our church members to be burdened for their own people as an initial step in reaching the world.  This year's chosen theme was "My heart's desire is that they might be saved."  We are so encouraged to see our Cambodian brethren learning to give of their finances to help support Cambodian local pastors and missionaries serving outside of Cambodia.

Shaken But Never Forsaken!

We are so thankful to the Lord for giving us the grace to go through the ordeals mentioned in the previous posts. We were kind of baffled that such horrible incidents happened to us but we know that God is never baffled nor surprised by what His children have to go through in life. While we may never know God's exact reasons in allowing these things, collectively, when these things are put together, they are the ingredients necessary to help us become tougher in times of future trials and more tender on those going through similar trials. We thank you all our friends for your prayers for us through those very trying times. We have followed-up with the local police for leads or developments on their investigation several times but it seems like no progress or any work is being done at all. We just have to let that thing go and move on forward. We are very grateful to all the friends and brethren who have helped financially for us to be able to cover all of the monetary obligations incurred from the losses. The prayers offered on our behalf and words of encouragement have been truly meaningful and precious to us. Yes, we were shaken but we know we were never forsaken. Never forsaken by the Lord and by you all. We can never thank you enough for your kindness.

Training Cambodians to Reach Cambodians

Cambodia Baptist Bible College started the new school year last October 12. At present there are a total of 44 students getting training in how to properly handle God’s Word and to minister it to the needy people. It is our firm belief that if Cambodia is to be reached with the Gospel effectively then more dedicated men and women need to be equipped, challenged and sent forth to harvest the millions of Cambodians still groping in darkness of sin and superstitious beliefs.
