Freedom Cambodia (FC), a partner project of the UK charity Life For The World Trust (LFTW) is working hard with Phnom Penh churches and other ministries to launch Cambodia's first Christian addictions conference.
FC has, under the name Christian Response to Addictions in Cambodia, trained hundreds of workers and volunteers in Christian ministries and churches since 2005. Now FC is setting up a drop in centre for young people who are not only poor but also abusing drugs and solvents.
The conference entitled 'Breaking the Chains' (18 November 2010) is aimed at pastors and church leaders, many of whom face daily the challenge of church families affected by addictions. The conference programme will include a range of workshops on the pastoral issues raised by drug and alcohol abuse and gambling and ways in which churches can provide support for people with addictions.
