NTM - New Tribes Mission | Planting Tribal Churches

Where were you a year ago today? We were in Cambodia… and we can prove it since I wrote in a journal quite a bit while we were there. For the first time, we’ve made the journal publically available here. Below find the basic breakdown of the days I’m publishing: Some names and locations have been changed or omitted to keep everyone honest.
