About Us
Cambodia
Cambodia is a country with a population of 17 million people. The country covers 181,035 km², or 165 times the size of Hong Kong. 65% of the country is under 30 years old, and 1% of Cambodians identify as Christians. It is estimated by the Joshua Project that 95.8% of the population is unreached, meaning the question being asked is not who is Jesus? - but what is Jesus?
We have based the start of the ministry in Siem Reap, home of Angkor Wat, a top tourism destination in Asia. Tourism is just starting back again after COVID. There are many youth and migrant workers in the city, and the inequality between rich & poor is almost highest among their provinces.
Vision
Serving as a conduit between Cambodia, Hong Kong and the world
- To fulfill the Great Commission by using innovative approaches to channel Christian training, resources, and people that supports the building of local disciples who will reach the unreached groups in Cambodia.
Mission
- Connect partner Cambodian churches and organisations with Hong Kong and oversea Christians that are passionate about supporting Cambodia.
- Identify and build opportunities for collaborations that will advance the Great Commission in Cambodia, bringing people, training and resources to the country.
- We will seek innovative ways to do ministry, that are culturally sensitive, self-sustainable and focusing on empowering and co-creating all stakeholders and Cambodians to be the leaders.
Values
- Empower Stakeholders and Cambodians to be the changemaker
- Enrich lives through the saving grace of Jesus Christ in HIS transformation
- Engage in collaboration & co-creation with local and international partners.

Ministry
Ministry Model
In a post-COVID world, the world has changed, and so has Cambodia. Many more people have access to smart phones and the internet. Even in the villages that we work in, there is high speed internet, connecting world class resources and teaching to young people. Let us create and embrace new innovative ways to be on cross-cultural mission.
We feel that the new normal will inspire a new way of how empowering cross-cultural missions can be done in the 21st century. Our ministry is focused on one province in Cambodia, but through technology, we have people from several continents coming together to make all the ministry we do possible.
Core Projects
We partner with organisations in Cambodia with a heart for the following
- Building great quality disciple materials and programs, and using a train-the-trainer model to accelerate skills and knowledge transfer.
- Using various sports as a way to connect with youth
- Using social innovation to create new impactful solutions to the community.
- Interested in cross cultural exchanges with overseas partners to inspire, encourage collaboration and co-creation.
