About This Project
In rural Cambodia, most pregnant women live in poverty, have little access to healthcare, and do not know how to raise a healthy family. Community health teachers who are trained to share the gospel and go to rural villages where twenty or more pregnant ladies wait for the day’s Bible teaching and pregnancy lesson. Each lady who attends receives weekly prenatal checks, vitamins, clean water, parenting classes, safe delivery at a health center, and many chances to hear the good news. Every week the lessons share the gospel and address topics such as safe foods during pregnancy, hydration, breastfeeding, and caring for a sick child. Families have come to faith through these groups and churches have started in many locations! Give today to save lives now and for eternity!
Why direct giving matters
Giving directly to a missionary team helps fund the specific, on-the-ground needs your missionaries care deeply about—needs that aren't covered by CP and LMCO alone.
In the next five years, a globalization goal of all IMB workers is to mobilize 500 local believers to become global missionary partners serving on IMB teams.
100% of your gift directly supports missionaries and their ministries overseas.

Nary’s* access to women’s health care was limited. Miles from any doctors or clinics, she only knew what her sister and mother told her.
Little did Maly and Sok know the new life they would find when they became believers. It was a huge surprise to them—but not to our Father—when Maly discovered she was pregnant. Because of your gifts, we provided Maly and other pregnant women in her village weekly checkups with blood pressure monitoring, prenatal vitamins, and a delivery plan. These are considered a luxury for mothers in this community due to poverty and distance from healthcare.
Thank you so much for your generous support of our team and the Asian Pacific Rim people God calls us to reach. In the rural areas of our region, most women live in poverty with little access to healthcare. As a result, few know how to raise healthy families. Because of your gifts, community health teachers trained to share the gospel go regularly to rural villages to teach twenty or more pregnant ladies a Bible teaching and pregnancy lesson. Each lady who attends receives weekly prenatal checks, vitamins, clean water, parenting classes, safe delivery at a health center when the time comes, and many opportunities to hear the good news.
Increasing impact. Your partnership has enabled a Christian couple to move to an unreached area that has no church presence. They met with women in four villages, sharing their faith, teaching about safe pregnancy, and meeting physical needs. God has blessed their ministry, and we have seen whole villages transform from malnourished to healthy, and sick children are becoming healthy. We also have seen the gospel spread through these women to their families!
