The Adventist Church in Cambodia (CAM) has expanded its outreach efforts with the introduction of a 10-seater van ministry, strengthening its capacity to serve communities and share the gospel in various parts of the country.

Church members and volunteers gather in prayer during an outdoor outreach activity supported by the Cambodia Adventist Mission’s van ministry, emphasizing spiritual connection and community engagement.

Church leaders said the van ministry plays a vital role in supporting mission activities, particularly in areas with limited access. The vehicle enables ministry teams to reach more communities, conduct regular outreach programs, and create new opportunities for evangelistic engagement.

“This van is more than just a vehicle—it is a tool for mission,” said Mao Roeum, president of the CAM. “Through this ministry, we are able to reach more people, strengthen our connection with communities, and share the love of Jesus in places that were once difficult to access.”

The initiative has also encouraged greater involvement among church members. Volunteers and local congregations have become more active in participating in outreach efforts, while young people have found meaningful opportunities to engage in mission service. Leaders noted that such involvement helps nurture a new generation committed to serving both the church and their communities.

CAM continues to maximize the use of the van to deliver spiritual and community-based programs, especially in underserved areas. The mission initiative reflects the church’s ongoing commitment to sharing hope, demonstrating Christ’s love in practical ways, and reaching more people across Cambodia with the message of salvation.
