In 2000, the Lord gave the staff at Mercy Ministries Foundation a burden for the people of Cambodia and in 2001 Mercy Ministries became a registered foundation with the Cambodian government. The physical and spiritual needs of the Khmer people is exceedingly great. Our goal was to open a children's home with the same vision for the Khmer children as we have for our homes in Thailand.
Along with our vision for this children's home the Lord first directed us to open a preschool / feeding program for children 4-8 years old. . Our preschool is located in an urban slum and gives many a chance to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ.
A piece of land was purchased and then a set of homes were constructed. The homes were completed and officially dedicated in November 2006. There are now about 30 children being cared for by the MMF staff in Cambodia within these new homes.
