Eastridge Global Gospel

05/24/2026

Our Eastridge partnership support of Sokhom Hun through Cambodia Christian Ministries (CCM) was initiated in 2016. Our contributions have yielded indescribable spiritual blessings through Sokhom, who has visited Eastridge several times to provide us with reports of his work.

Sokhom lost many family members during the horrendous regime of Pol Pot, leader of the Khmer Rough's totalitarian regime, but as a survivor of the Cambodia "killing fields" (1975-1979), Sokohom returned to Cambodia to minister to the people. His ministry has continued to grow and be fruitful through his faithful service in the Lord. Below are excerpts from the CCM May Report:

Cambodia Christian Ministries (CCM) is committed to following in the footsteps of Jesus. Jesus helped meet the physical needs and especially the spiritual needs of the people. CCM continues the mission of Jesus as we always bring doctors and Bible teachers to provide both physical and spiritual healing to the precious people in the remote villages of Cambodia. The Lord has led us to make “Jesus footprints” in 23 of the 25 provinces over the past several years as thousands have been physically and spiritually healed.

Sokhom welcomes everyone at CCM Center for Sunday morning worship (CBS students, CCM staff, agriculture workers, construction workers, plus 80 Jesus Children.

Since Cambodia public education is only half day, our Jesus Children will excel as a result of the tutoring. Many will become doctors, nurses, engineers, etc., and will influence the spiritual landscape of Cambodia.

Follow-Up from Previous Ministry Efforts

Following the leadership development initiatives and congregational strengthening efforts, continued emphasis has been placed on establishing biblically qualified leadership within the churches connected to the Avanza Líder ministry. The ongoing objective has been to equip faithful men and women for long-term congregational service, discipleship, and spiritual oversight.

Ministry Visit to La Ceiba, Atlántida, Honduras (April 17–20, 2026) -
As a result of prayer, observation, and congregational consultation, three couples were selected to begin a trial period as prospective elders, while three additional couples were selected to serve in
a trial capacity as deacons.

Finally, please continue praying for:
• The six couples currently in training and evaluation in La Ceiba
• Wisdom during the elders’ selection process
• Spiritual growth and unity within the church in La Ceiba
• The leadership group in Las Lomas del Guijarro
• Continued opportunities for leadership development throughout Honduras

Our Eastridge family has a beautiful heart for spreading the gospel by strengthening churches, entering undeveloped areas of the world to introduce indigenous people to Christ in primitive villages, and supporting native people who spread the word in their country at risk of losing their lives if discovered by authorities. The Eastridge heart is evidenced by supporting our mission fields in primitive villages in India and the Amazon in Venezuela. We help spread the word in Iran, Cambodia, Ghana, Eastern European Missions, and Croatia, and support Eastridge members on mission trips, to name a few endeavors. All glory to God!

Below is a newsletter from Javier Leon of Avanza Lider Ministry. Javier has visited our services and has spoken to us about his work in Leadership Development in South and Central America. The opening of Javier’s newsletter sets out the scope of his ministry which we have supported since 2018.

A Water Well for Kiva - primitive village in India..from Agape Asia

Kiva* is a group of remote, tribal villages in India with no access to clean water, electricity, or schools. Agape Asia supports Children’s Clubs and evangelistic work in these villages. Building a well in Kiva will address their greatest physical need and further open doors to share the Gospel.

4-20-26 - Eastridge members - below is a great work where your donations are reaching remote primitive villages in India. Heretofore, the village tribal leaders would not allow outsiders to enter. Great inroads are being made as workers gain the confidence and trust of the leaders, meeting basic needs and sharing their faith with the villagers.

Children's Club and Church Planting in India ..from Agape Asia:

Kiva* is a group of remote and unreached villages in the Telangana state of India. Because it is so remote, children and adults in Kiva struggle every day and have little hope of improving their lives. Adults work as day laborers while children are unable to go to school. Many people suffer from basic health problems because of poor hygiene and difficult living conditions.

As our partners care for these children and build relationships in the village, they will share their faith and begin studying with families. Their hope is that some in the village will come to faith and they will be able to plant a new church within three years.

As a result of our networking with local Churches of Christ to identify mission fields with financial needs, that are on a scale from striving to do great things in the Lord’s kingdom, to start-up mission work in primitive villages, we have been introduced to the Varazdin Church of Christ in Varazdin, Croatia.

The open hearts and hands of our Eastridge members have afforded us the opportunity to invest in the Varazdin Church which is one of the most active of the numerous Churches of Christ in Croatia.

Varazdin was featured in an issue of the Christian Chronical at one point (sorry, no issue date or number). Though active and evangelizing with approximately 60 members, they have reached out with a financial need, to which we have responded.

Below is a note from the preacher, Vladen Dominic, on an event the church held recently, along with pictures of the event.

"Dear brothers and sisters,

Thank you very much for your prayers on the occasion of Reformation Day. The whole event was a very good promotion of our church. We had an exhibition with many old translations of the Bible. We had the original Luther's Bible from 1534 and a copy of the Croatian New Testament from 1562. Visitors could print a quote from the Bible - John 3:16 - on a replica of Gutenberg's printing press. The media covered us very well. There was more than 30 people. They made very good reports about us.

The exhibition was also visited by three schools. The children were brought by their Roman Catholic religious education teachers. Both the teachers and the children were delighted with the exhibition and presentation. They asked us if they could come to our church again for one of the events. We said -- of course, you are welcome.

Thank you again for your prayers!
In Christ, Mladen Dominić"

Summer Missions Update:
We are currently monitoring the Covid-19 disease progression throughout the world and especially in the various countries that we help to support mission work in. At this point all plans for 2020 summer mission trips are put on hold. Most of the countries we help to serve are on quarantine just like the United States and we don’t want to do anything that would either put them at an increased risk or the members of Eastridge. We will keep these sites updated if anything changes.

Please let us know if there is any concerns and/or question you might have.

Thank you for your continued support❤️
