\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While some activities, such as preventive education in schools, are similar across villages, our <strong>community and family work is highly individual<\/strong> and time-intensive. This year, we especially aim to expand our family-focused efforts, addressing the unique needs of each household even more effectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are guided by four key priorities:<br><br>Ensuring that children have <strong>unhindered access to education.<\/strong> haben.<br>2. <strong>Alleviating immediate emergencies<\/strong> and <strong>urgent needs.<\/strong> werden.<br>3. <strong>Providing support and training<\/strong> to help families achieve a safe, independent, and <strong>stable life.<\/strong>.<br>Sharing <strong>Christian values<\/strong> and <strong>offering counseling and prayer.<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">At this point, we would like to share a successful experience our team had in one of the villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">In the village we visit every Wednesday, we learned about a family where the father would violently beat his wife and eldest son whenever he drank.<br>The family had very little money, and the <strong>eldest son had even tried to find work illegally in Thailand.<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">We began praying for this family and thinking about how we could offer support.<br>On our next visit, the mother approached our team on her own and shared the heavy burden she had been carrying. She told Keany that she had even considered taking her own life\u2014but something had stopped her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">We were then able to share with her that we had been praying for her and tell her about Jesus, encouraging her to pray as well. Of course, we offered practical help, though she was understandably afraid of what might happen.<br>Her greatest wish, however, was that her 16-year-old son could find an apprenticeship or a job in Siem Reap, away from home, away from his father, and in safety.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Through our support, <strong>we were able to connect her son with an excellent apprenticeship and job opportunity,<\/strong>where he could learn new skills and receive training allowances.&nbsp;<br>During one of our subsequent visits to the village, we met the mother again. She looked completely transformed and shared how happy she was. Her son was doing really well, and even her husband had begun to improve.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited.webp\" alt=\"Serey Team geht zu einem Familienbesuch.\" class=\"wp-image-1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited.webp 1600w, https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/serey.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9350-edited-18x10.webp 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There is still a long way to go before the root causes of this family\u2019s challenges are fully addressed. Tackling these issues takes time, dedication, and prayer. Yet even now, this is already a story of success\u2014and one in which you are a part.

We want to honor their commitment and, ideally, adjust their salaries to reflect their hard work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we calculate all our costs for Cambodia and compare them to the donations received so far, there is still a gap of <strong>around $50,000.<\/strong> <strong>$50.000<\/strong>.<br>For us, this is a significant sum\u2014but we do not lose heart or faith.
