When I think of my journey to Cambodia, I think of when God
first laid the burden for Cambodia in my heart in 2015. I thought I will just apply with a Missionary
agency and in a few weeks I will be in a plane to Cambodia. What I did not know then was that it was going
to be a process and to get to Cambodia will take longer than I had anticipated.
It has been 3 years since God laid the burden in my heart and I am
still not in Cambodia. I started my
application with OMF in June 2016 when I was still training with the Navigators. In January 2018, I started my support
raising in preparation for Cambodia.
Overseas Mission Fellowship (OMF) whom I am going to serve with needed
me to have four clearances before I could go.
I needed the Medical Clearance, Homeside Clearance, Field Clearance and
Financial Clearance. By the grace of
God, I received all the four clearances by the end of June 2018.

I will be leaving for Singapore in October 22nd
2018 for 3 weeks of orientation and trusting God to be in Cambodia in November
20th 2018. I will be in Cambodia for an initial commitment of 3 years
and my first assignment will be to learn the Khmer language and the Cambodian
culture for a year. The next two years I
will be involved in ministry assignments as my leaders see fit. I am really excited and I can’t wait to get to
Cambodia. One of the promises God has
given me is in Matthew 28:19-20 which tells me that he will be with me.

Send Off – being
prayed for and commissioned to go.

Going forward, please: -
- Thank God for the progress thus far and for support I have received from partners, friends and my sending church – Deliverance Church Kahawa Sukari (DCKS)
- Pray that God will raise partners to stand with me for the remaining needed support so that I will have all that I need to do the work in Cambodia (2 Cor 9:8)
- Pray that as I go to Cambodia, I will have a smooth transition and that God will give me knowledge and skill and that I will be quick to learn the Khmer language and culture( Daniel 1:17)
- Pray that the 42 people groups in Cambodia will hear the gospel and that they may put their faith in Christ who die for them (Rev 5:9)
