Cambodia Mission Trip Support

CBC is sending a team to Cambodia in the summer, from July 1-7, to work with an anti-trafficking ministry in Phnom Penh. This ministry provides rehabilitation and healing for rescued girls and also builds schools for girls to demonstrate the biblical value of how equally precious girls are to God as boys. Our team of 8 women from Houston will be working with the rescued girls to show them they are not forgotten and there is a God who loves them.

If you feel led to support this mission, please fill out a regular offering envelope and write "Cambodia Mission Trip" on the memo line or donate online and select the Cambodia Mission fund. Anything we raise above our trip expenses will be donated to the ministry, which is dependent on private donations to keep their homes for rescued girls and schools operating. For more information, please contact team lead Catherine Yen.

The Cambodia Mission Trip team will have a Garage Sale and Bake Sale in the Spring Branch area this Saturday to raise funds. Come stop by and support them! Details.
