Faith sprouts in floating Cambodian village

KBAL TAOL, Cambodia –David* never imagined he’d use ghosts as a way to share the Gospel.

A Christian worker in Cambodia, David was surveying floating villages on Tonle Sap Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, and was in need of a boat and driver. Andrew,* whom David had led to Christ 18 months earlier, agreed to take the job.

–”God, please let my brother be waiting in the bay when we pass by.” Though not a Christian, 12-year-old David* offered up this prayer the day he and Tom*, his 16-year-old brother, were trying to escape Vietnam. It was 1980 and hundreds of Vietnamese refugees — known as “boat people” — were fleeing the country in search of a better life.
