Description 

Minister to Cambodian young adults through a ministry of hospitality.

Vision for Ministry

Our purpose is to be God’s hands and feet to the world around us. We commit to being disciples who make disciples, inspiring lasting change in people’s lives as they encounter Christ. We understand that one way to disciple Cambodian young adults is through a ministry of hospitality. Our goal is for university students and other young adults to experience the transforming love of Christ. We strive to nurture an environment where young adults feel safe, seen, and encouraged to become who God is calling them to be.
