Cambodia Short-Term Mission Trip (Aug. 10–26, 2026)

  • This August, our Cambodia STM team will partner with a local ministry to serve youth ages 13–18 and their families. Many youth in Cambodia face difficult choices during their teenage years, with some leaving school early to help support their families. Through English lessons, computer activities, sports, music, Bible teaching, and relationship-building, we hope to encourage these young people, share the love of Christ, and point them toward a hopeful future.
  • The total budget for this mission trip is $41,200. A total of $12,259.50 has been received so far. If you would like to support financially, please mark “Cambodia STM’ on your offering envelope or e-transfer.
  • Mission Trip Encouragement Note Requested – Our Cambodia Missions Team is inviting our congregation to partner with us in a simple but meaningful way! As we prepare to serve in Cambodia, we’d love to bring handwritten notes of encouragement to the people we’ll be meeting and working alongside.
