Saved People Serve People--We love Kevin and Jill who serve in Cambodia

Kevin and Jill Kane


Mission Location: Battambang, Cambodia
Sending Agency: Encompass World
 

Our Missionary Partner: Kevin and Jill embody the Grace church value--saved people serve people.  They have stoked a passion to be involved in God’s work in Cambodia serving the Khmer people. They came to Christ and got baptized in August 1990.  They explored ministry opportunities through short term trips and ministry skills assessment, even taking a special assignment in January 2002.  Then in 2006, God sent Kevin and Jill to develop fully devoted followers of Christ in Cambodia as missionary partners from Grace Church. 


Their Mission: The Kane's live in Northwestern Cambodia in a city known for its rice, Battambang.  The Khmer language is a challenge to learn, but the Kane's have learned the language and use it to develop Khmer leadership.  They worked together with Kent and Becky Good. Kent and Becky returned to the US in Dec 2014.  Now, Kevin and Jill will help with the transition to Khmer leadership. Ever sharing the Gospel and equipping church leadership, Kevin and Jill intend to delegate more ministry responsibilities to the Cambodian Ministry Partners.  The end goal is to raise up indigenous pastors and leaders who will lead their own churches.



How to Be Involved
PRAY: Ask God to give them strength in the Lord to develop fully devoted followers of Christ in Cambodia.  


Pray for time with Ted and Jason from Encompass who are coming next week (week of Nov 15) to equip the Kanes in the art of reaching people who come from an Honor and Shame culture. Ask God for the ability to capture truths to communicate to the Khmer leaders and people. Ask the Lord to raise up great leaders for the Khmer church.

Pray for the launch of the Women's Dorm/Training Center where women can learn sewing, screen printing and Hair/Nail Salon work. This endeavor is linked to the existing Grace Center in Battambang. Ask the Lord to help us raise the funds needed. 
 

ENCOURAGE: Kevin's birthday is March 8. Jill's birthday is on September 1. Their anniversary is July 9, 1978.
