Rescued from human trafficking in Southeast Asia, Bora has become a cross cultural communicator of the gospel in Northeast Cambodia. Several years ago while working as a cashier her boss accused her of taking money. Her boss set up a long term payment program requiring her to work several years to pay off the money. Unable make the payment quickly, Bora sought refuge in another country to earn money to pay off her debt. She worked and lived in a compound that gave her no freedom to come and go as she pleased. A new found friend helped her escape from captivity. She gives testimony of the incremental steps God opened for her as she returned to Cambodia without money or passport.
God placed within her a desire to study and become a midwife. While she waited certification for a government job, she gained experience working at a well equipped and staffed local delivery unit. Desiring to be well prepared for her future cross cultural ministry she trained with Community Health Evangelism (CHE).

With her certification in hand she was took an assignment in a remote area of Cambodia. As she described to us her opportunity to serve in Northeastern Cambodia at a new health center, her trust in God and excitement for the future can hardly be contained. She calmly told us about the journey of 520 kilometers to Ratanakiri taking more than 12 hours on a small motorcycle. Nancy and I realized she may need a van to carry her belongings. We offered to rent a van and make the trip with her. Knowing the past faithfulness of God, she told us not to worry. She would talk with several van drivers, who have vans to carry multiple people plus motorcycles. God rewarded her faith with an inexpensive ride.

Bora’s walk with God demonstrates her confidence that God guides and direct her path.
Please pray for her as she has taken this challenging midwife position. She will work with minority tribes speaking several different languages without the immediate back up of a physician. She desires that God will be the light shining through her in a very difficult place.
