Our departure date is fast approaching. On June 24 we will set out to fly half-way around the world to Cambodia. Our trip has three parts. The first will be examining sex trafficking. We will be studying this, speaking with individuals who have been directly impacted by sex trafficking, and spend time learning from organizations who are working to end sex trafficking in Cambodia and in the world. Secondly, we will spend time in community with groups of United Methodist Women and United Methodist congregations in the country through bible study and fellowship. Finally, we will learn about the country itself by visiting Angkor Wat, Toul Sleng Genocide Museum, the Killing Fields, and the Royal Palace.
Here are some links to more information about Cambodia, sex trafficking prevention organizations, and about Angkor Wat, Toul Sleng Genocide Museum, the Killing Fields, and the Royal Palace.
We hope you will sojourn with us by reading our blog for daily updates, pictures, and video post of our time in Cambodia. We also ask for your prayers for the many affected by sex trafficking, for those working to end it, and for us as we work to better understand what we can do to be part of the solution.
