14 people who deserve a Grammy for doing social good

At 2:30 am tomorrow morning we intend to send 14 people from our church to minister in SE Asia.  All seek to serve in SE Asia together:
  • to help, encourage, and serve with missionary partners like Kevin & Jill Kane in Battambang, CAMBODIA.
  • to love, hug, and play with rescued orphan children in our Grace Place home in Battambang, CAMBODIA.
  • to be with, lay hands on in prayer, and encourage our house parents (like Yun Vannak) and their families in each Grace Place home.
  • to meet and to learn more about White Doves Ministries who rescues women from the sex trade industry in NW Cambodia. You can see a video of their ministry here.
  • to expand awareness of the culture and history of Cambodia by visiting the (links here may contain pictures of graphic nature) Killing Fields, Toul Sleng prison, and to visit a state run orphanage.
  • to stay with and to work on small projects for the G.R.O.W. home in Chiang Mai, THAILAND where Faa and the rescued at-risk children live. You can follow them on Facebook too.
  • to love, hug, and play with rescued orphan children at Grace Place Thailand in Wieng Pa Pao.  
  • to travel to a Hill Tribe village and to understand what challenges face the Hill Tribe peoples.
Their 30-hour journey begins early tomorrow morning. Please take a moment to pray for the team: Ask God for health, safety, Holy Spirit empowerment to love, serve, and maintain unity, and for open hearts to consider what each could do when they get back to walk more closely with God and to do something to help those that they meet.  You can follow them via their blog updates.
