Stories & Testimonies

In January, each of Heaven's Family's 21 Focused Ministry Directors gave a short, 10-minute presentation about their accomplishments in 2015 and their upcoming goals for 2016. We're excited about what the Lord has done, and what He has in store for the remainder of this year!

The little girl's shirt says it all: LOVE WINS! That's what we are reminded of here in Cambodia. Although our enemy seeks to destroy lives, God is in the business of saving, redeeming and restoring them! That's what the Human Trafficking & Slavery Ministry is all about.

Cambodia is a nation with a dark past, but a bright future. We're hearing this optimism repeated over and over these two weeks as we visit many of the projects you are involved with here through the Human Trafficking & Slavery Ministry. But this hopefulness doesn't come from the nation's political process, which is awash in corruption. Instead, it comes from poor, marginalized people who are working hard to make something of their lives—and they're finding opportunities like never before, thanks to Heaven's Family and many other organizations working in concert to end human trafficking and slavery in this Southeast Asian country.

Um Vorn wears many hats in Brasat Muoy Village—husband, father, pastor, farmer and teacher. He is one of 12 men and women scattered all over rural Cambodia who have been tasked with a very special assignment: educate children, and do all you can to prevent them from becoming victims of human trafficking and slavery, an endemic problem throughout Southeast Asia.
