Reaching the Ancient Chenla Empire
Sambor Prei Kuk, a historical gem in the heart of Kampong Thom province (200 km north of Phnom Penh), holds the remnants of the ancient Chenla Empire. This once-thriving civilization left behind a legacy of over 100 temples, each a testament to the religious practices of the era.
Beyond its historical significance, the region has a more recent spiritual history. The local church in Sambor Prei Kuk has witnessed remarkable transformations, including the conversion of a former witchcraft practitioner. This powerful testimony highlights the Gospel's transformative power and the hope it brings to even the darkest corners of society.

Missionary Lifestyle
Our team’s commitment to reaching the unreached extends beyond bustling cities to remote corners of the nation. The seminar held at Sambor Prei Kuk church, a remote location far from urban conveniences, exemplifies this dedication.
The team's willingness to adapt to the local conditions, including staying in a village homestay and even fishing for dinner, demonstrates the commitment to living like missionaries. By prioritizing the needs of the local church and minimizing expenses, we were able to maximize the ministry's impact. This selfless approach allowed us to allocate more resources to support the participation of additional pastors in the seminar.
Six Essential DPM Teaching Materials
It was truly inspiring to see 47 pastors from diverse backgrounds attend the seminar. The presence of pastors who were actively engaged in worship, lifting their voices in praise to the Lord, created a powerful atmosphere of spiritual devotion.
The focus of the seminar was on six essential DPM teaching materials, namely What's So Important About the Cross?, Do You Realize How Valuable You Are?, Will You Intercede?, Hear God's Voice, The Authority and Power of God's Word, and Applying the Blood. This teaching provided a comprehensive foundation for spiritual growth and ministry. By delving into these essential truths, the pastors were equipped to deepen their understanding of God's Word and apply it to their lives and ministries.
Testimony of Pastor Reach Pov
“The DPM seminar was a truly transformative experience for me," shared Pastor Reach Pov from Kampong Thom province. "It wasn't just a gathering of pastors; it was a deep dive into God's Word. The book Hear God's Voice was particularly impactful, with the teaching giving guidance on discerning God's voice amidst the world's noise. I've realized that the Lord's voice is always rooted in Scripture and filled with encouragement and faith. This book has enriched my personal walk with God and equipped me to guide my congregation better. I am excited to share these valuable insights and teachings with my church, empowering them to hear God's voice more clearly.”
