“A personal testimony from me is the blessing of being able to go the first time and then make the comparison of how God has blessed the second time and used Elk Grove Bible Church as a means for the spreading of the Gospel in Cambodia (aka The Great Commission). For example, the members of Kompongsom BP Church struggled to physically get to their church due to its location away from their villages, and were renting some rooms from the local Christian college, due to the fact they didn’t have a church building of their own.
“Elk Grove Bible Church was able to step in and pay for the rent of a building so the Cambodian believers can have their church closer to them in the city and a place to assemble, grow and worship Jesus Christ any time of the day or night. To see our Cambodian brothers and sisters take ownership of the building and work very hard to fix it up was very encouraging.
“Also to know that Pastor Hor is using the building during the week to hold forms of outreach like free English classes is a huge blessing. This is a way of ministering to those who are lost coming into the church to learn English, but by God’s grace they will learn about Jesus too! It’s a way for the Kompongsom BP Church to be known to the villagers and city for being a place of love, grace and truth. Ultimately my hope and desire is for Kompongsom BP Church to grow and make disciples of Jesus Christ, and then to send some of those disciples to other areas of Cambodia to plant churches and start the whole process over, hence ‘The Great Commission.’ ”
