Cambodia Outreach 2008

Between the 1-12 July 2008 , a number of students, staff members and friends of the Perth Bible went to Cambodia on a short-term outreach. The team worked with a missionary from Perth, Samantha Willans, ministering to people in Phnom Penh.

Samantha works with various ministries including Tarsha's Legacy Centre (TLC), Fellowship of Hope Church and Transform Cambodia.

During the outreach the team broke up into three groups, two of them working at the TLC. One of these groups focussed on the children ministry teaching English and Bible, as well as building relationships.

The other ministered to the adults and parents of the children.

The third group worked at an orphanage, Centre of Peace, with two other Australians, and had a similar children's ministry.

Russia 2008 Mission Trip - feedback

We were privileged to have Jenny Abetz and Daniel van der Spuy provide feedback on their 2008 Russian mission trip. Overall the trip was a great success. The team faced the usual challenges, however they all returned saying it was worth their while. May we all keep the hearts and minds of the children that they were involved with in our prayers. We pray that God in His wisdom will continue to water the seeds that were planted by us His instruments.







Mission Sunday Presentation by Riki Deale

Riki's presentation on Mission Sunday gave us all a better insight into the different world religions and the hunger for bibles in these countries. Riki got the congregation to participate by dressing up and representing the various world religions.
