It’s the last line written in the flap of a book by the angel Clarence in the classic movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life”. Like George Bailey, I was discouraged. Government mandates insisting that we supply new uniforms to all our homes by the end of the year at a projected cost of $52,500 USD or face shutdown had me in despair. Mak Sou had a prophetic dream and told me to write to my old friends. It was a miracle! We were able to get the uniforms bought and though they may not be delivered before New Year, they are …  

Christmas celebrations actually began in late November and will continue throughout January. It’s the major holiday for the Cambodian Church and since December 25th is not an official recognized holiday, the season gets stretched, especially since ‘Orthodox Christmas’ isn’t celebrated until January 7th. FCOP church leaders like to attend their neighboring congregations services, therefore, they match their celebration dates so they don’t overlap. In this case, pictures are better than words!  

FCOP was very happy to welcome Jerry Stott and Paul Vernon (our Foursquare Church supervisors for this region) for a short visit in December. We were able to meet as a Cambodian board with them, show them around our Training Center and offices, and share our desires for the future with them. It was very encouraging to see their active support for the FCOP vision for this nation. Paul had great visits with Shanon Hladek and Bob and Christal Hollandsworth. Jerry and Pa Thom (me) got to share extensively on the topic of deliverance and demonic oppression. This is a …  

 Paul wrote, “because for the work of Christ he came close to death…” (Philippians 2:30). The day before Christmas was not a quiet one for Pow Moi; a 16 year old tribal orphan boy from Olai-Lai. This is the site of a recent revival. This location is a far northern Church/Home in the FCOP system; up in the very peak of the country where Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia are joined. Pow Moi was clearing brush the day before (getting ready for a big Christmas celebration) when the machine he was using kicked back and cut through the tibia, tendon, and …  

The doctors at the hospital sent the body home telling the family that the pastor was dead. Kong Seangny had pastored the church in Anlong Veng for more than twenty-two years. She was the founding pastor who saw the church birthed in signs, wonders, and miracles. Her own sons were raised up from death after eating poisonous frogs, but her church had stagnated. Her grave was dug, the casket was purchased, and FCOP’s General Supervisor Som Art was summoned to perform the funeral. Som Art left Phnom Penh with Dr. Lina and Ra Vy (from our office staff) and drove the 375 kilometers to …  

Have you ever wondered why revivals never last? The first generation is raised up in the power of God, praying in the Spirit, working miracles, paying a great price for their faith, and God blesses that community (Hebrews 10:32). The second generation comes along and may be faithful church goers but they lose their spiritual zeal and by the third generation the church is dying. God always has a remnant, but they need the power of the Holy Spirit. The son-in-law of pastor Siengny, Nakreing Say, had taken over preaching but he had not seen the miraculous. God brought his mother back …  

Bob and Christal Hollandsworth have served faithfully with FCOP for 15 years. They went back to the US in February 2020 and just returned this November. They never intended to stay away that long but got stuck in the Covid-19 lockdowns. They returned just in time for the first container we’ve imported from the US in over two years arrived. We were sent 8,250 gallons of good quality exterior paint. This is a gift easily worth $100,000 US dollars. We have an assortment of colors that run through yellow, blue, pink, gray, brown and green. Bob and Christal arrived in …  

We have received more rain in November than we did in either June, July or August, and those are supposed to be ‘Rainy Season’ months. November is traditionally the first ‘Dry Season’ month, but it has been wet. Unusual weather has been a pattern all over the world! FCOP lost most of our first crop to drought, then the replanting (second crop) was lost to excessive rains in September and October. In total FCOP harvested only about 20% of our crops. Finances have been extremely tight. So, we could not buy our usual, very expensive, foundation seed. Instead, Paul Mok went through …
