Missionary Memo
October 12, 2014


Dear friends at Westbourne,

Steve here Imagine Christmas in Cambodia. I dont imagine it will be
turkey and mashed potatoeslikely fish and rice. With 95% of Cambodias
population claiming to be Buddhist, not many Cambodians will celebrate the
birth of Christ this Christmas. However, each year that percentage dwindles
because the Lord is at work in this country. In fact, there will be more
Cambodians celebrating Christmas this year than there were a generation
ago. Cambodia is actually an exciting missions story!

Cambodia is a nation of 14 million people, with 80% of the population in
rural areas. Protestant missions started only 40 years ago, but by the 60s
there were approximately 1,000 Christians. During the 70s dramatic growth
occurred amidst the brutal killing fields of the Pol Pot communist regime.
It is believed that 80% of Christians and all pastors were martyred between
1975-79. Around 1990, the country opened to other mission agencies and
the Cambodian Evangelical Fellowship currently lists 100 denominations
with approximately 200,000 evangelical believers, or 1.5% of the
population. The growth has been rapid and shows no signs of slowing down.

This years FAIR Christmas project is centered on the ministry of Nhep and
Oeut Pech, who are using the FAIR-funded mobile dental clinic to provide
dental care to Cambodians in villages, towns, and prisons where they then
share the Gospel with each patient. To date, they have treated over 5,000
patients, most of whom have never heard the Good News of Christ. They
have led scores of nominal Buddhists to Christ, designed a discipleship
track, and established three church plants; their ministry has been fruitful.

Thank you for faithfully praying,
Steven
