We are a Christ-centered nonprofit walking alongside children, families, and local leaders in rural Cambodia — sharing the hope of the gospel through long-term, relational ministry.

បេសកកម្មOur Mission

To glorify God by sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ

Light of Cambodia exists to serve rural communities in Pursat through the love of Jesus Christ. We work alongside local pastors, teachers, and community leaders to care for children, support families, and share the message of salvation through both word and action.

We believe real change happens through relationship, presence, and obedience to the gospel — not through quick solutions or distant aid. Our commitment is to walk with people, listen well, and serve with humility as God works in and through the communities we love.

Our vision is communities transformed by the love of Jesus — where children are cared for, families are strengthened, and local believers are equipped to lead with faith, compassion, and hope.

Partnership, not dependency — local leaders carry the work in their own communities.

“You are the light of the world.
A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.”

Children & Youth Ministry

Children are at the heart of our ministry. We provide consistent care, educational support, meals, and Bible teaching in a safe and loving environment. Through daily programs and trusted relationships, children grow academically, emotionally, and spiritually — and hear that they are deeply loved by God and created with purpose.

Family & Community Care

We walk alongside families in times of need through practical support, prayer, and long-term relationship. Whether through food assistance, encouragement, or presence during difficult seasons, we care with dignity while pointing families to the hope found in Christ.

Church & Leadership Partnerships

The local church is central to God's work. We come alongside — never replace — local pastors and leaders, strengthening churches through discipleship, encouragement, and practical support as they share the gospel and care for their own communities.
