Cambodia Mission (CM)
BACKGROUND:
Lutheran Church in Singapore (LCS) was given the mandate to spear-head the Mekong Mission Forum Cambodia mission work in Cambodia since 2008. The objective is to plant a Lutheran Church in Cambodia as there is no Lutheran Church in this part of the Mekong. We already have Lutheran Churches in Thailand, Myanmar and Vietnam.
This is a partnership of several Lutheran Churches and mission agencies such as Lutheran Church in Singapore (LCS), Lutheran Church in Australia (LCA), Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria (ELCB), Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), Evangelical Lutheran Church in Hong Kong (ELCHK), and Chinese Rhenish Church Hong Kong Synod (CRCHK).
MILESTONE:
The Lutheran Church in Cambodia (LCC) became independence with the installation of their first elected Bishop in Nov 2023. The young Church is taking small step by step and phase by phase towards both financial and theological self-reliance. Cambodia Mission (CM) was birth to work with LCC to engage, to establish a planned timeline and systematically training of pastoral staff towards this goal as a growing Church.
