We just experienced another proof of the hand of God working through the power of prayer. Many of you are aware that all 106 of our Church Homes were up for renewal of their M.O.U.’s (Memorandum of Understanding) which are issued by the Ministry of Children’s, Youth, and Veteran’s Affairs, and gives each home a licensee to operate in Cambodia.
(See Homes A – O) (See Homes P – Z)

Because we openly lead people into relationship with Christ, we were strongly opposed by one Assistant Director who was in charge of our renewals. She was in a very close relationship with UNICEF (They do not like to see children change religion). Pastor Peter (our President) and Naret (our Chief of Staff) went to the private hearing for our licensee renewal. Fortunately, all of our kids and staff have been praying for this day for months!

This Assistant Director made a strong recommendation to the Director that all our licenses be revoked. Both Peter and Naret have a good relationship with the Director of the ministry. The Director simply looked at this woman, who has been openly hostile towards FCOP, and asked, “If you close these homes who is going to care for these children?” She did not have an answer. The Director demoted her on the spot, removing her from any oversight of our FCOP homes. Yes! There is a God!
