Do you hear the Wind?

Some months ago, the Wind blew and stirred up an unnamed restlessness in the Suh family. We began to consider whether God might be calling us in a new direction.

One morning, Gil casually scanned the Christian Reformed World Missions website. A new ministry position in Cambodia had been posted: ministry coordinator/leadership trainer. We had considered ministry there when we came back from Nigeria, but we couldn’t make such a big change at that time. No one had ever stepped forward in the meantime.

Was God giving us a second chance? We felt that we’ve been able to process our experiences in Nigeria and been better equipped to work at leadership development. We’ve felt anew the urgent call to bring Good News to the nations. We’ve remembered our roots and commitments as a couple and our first love of cross-cultural mission.

At the same time, and more importantly, the Wind has been blowing in Cambodia. God is on the move. “Now is the time,” we’ve been told by a new Cambodian friend, “the door is open.” We want to follow after Christ’s love for this still largely un-reached nation. Christ is calling followers--which means that there is a need for leadership development and training for the church. We accepted the call with the great excitement and joy. We believe that Cambodia can become a beacon of faith and hope in Southeast Asia. We will be working out of San Jose until December when we hope to go to Phnom Penh to begin our ministry there.

Is the wind blowing your way? Will you consider whether God is calling you to join our ministry through financial, prayer or family support? If you want to receive our ministry updates, newsletters, and prayer requests, please let us know joycesuh@sbcglobal.net or gilsuh@sbcglobal.net
We are hoping for engaged and committed partners—in whatever capacity you are able. Do you feel the Wind?
