Welcome to Place of Rescue

 

Place of Rescue is a safe haven for families living with AIDS, orphan children and orphan grannies and young unmarried pregnant women.

AMAZING STATISTICS

 

Rescue was founded as a Cambodian NGO in 2003. At that time all we had were 15 houses for AIDS families.

 

Today Place of Rescue I near Bek Chan is home to 200 orphans and 28 destitute elderly women. In addition, we have 44 children who are part of families living with AIDS. The adults living with AIDS number 34 people.

 

In Phnom Penh 26 young people make their home at House of New Dreams or other studies. 

 

Place of Rescue II located in Mongkol Borey, in northern Cambodia is home to 146 orphans.

20 of whom are studying in university in Svay Sisapon

 

 

In the province of Pailin, bordering Thailand, there are 71 children at Place of Rescue III.

 

As of March 2016, that makes Rescue totally responsible for 549 people cared for by a staff of more than 100 people.

A grand total of 649 people.

PRAYER REQUESTS FOR MARCH 2016

Praise the Lord because He is always faithful and will always meet our needs.

 

Please pray

 

- Recently some of our staff resigned so now we are in need of several house mothers, a pre-school teacher and a dance teacher.

 

- We have several handicapped children so we are in need of a therapist who can help us with them.

 

- Surveyors came and told us that plans are for a new express way to be built from Phnom Penh to the coast of Cambodia. They told us the road would go right through our orphanage property.

Help us pray as we make contact with the Prime Minister asking him to not allow this to happen.

 

- A few of our children are struggling with their studies in school and failed their quarterly exams. May our tutors have wisdom in helping them and may the children be encouraged to continue to try hard.

 

- Beginning of April Place of Rescue in Canada will only be sending us ¾ of our needed funds. Pray that the short-fall will be met in other ways.

 

 

Please pray

 

1. With the continued devaluation of the Canadian dollar funding will have to remain strong during upcoming months when normally it slows down.

 

2. I hope to do a fundraising tour in the U.S. in May. We need the Lord to set it all up as to where I could go. We are presently in the very beginning of planning.

 

3. May our high school and post high school students be constantly motivated to study hard and not skip Classes. May their teachers be committed to helping them succeed.

 

4. May everyone at all Places of Rescue have a good attitude of respect and submission to those over them.

 

5. Pray for Prime Minister Hun Sen and his wife, Her Excellency Bun Rany. May they seek the blessing and favour of Jesus. May they have His wisdom in the important decisions they make.

 

6. May their contacts with Place of Rescue continue to be on their minds and in their hearts and may they clearly understand why this place is what it is.

 

7. Our expatriate English teachers are a valuable asset. May they adjust easily to living here. Two new young women will be coming from Canada mid January to stay for three months.

 

We are raising rabbits for food. The newborn babies almost all die. Pray we might find our why.
