Channa Touch Australian Trip 2008

I love my wife and my family so much. They are my blessing from God the Creator. Simmy is very good in Prayer to support me. Love you darling!

First Trip to Australia

In May 24th, 2008 was the first time for Touch's Family landed in Australia. It was their all firsts though. It is so exciting to see the complete different world to Cambodia.

The airport is so big.
The roads are clean and have more than two lanes. Some places you can see the road with 6 to 8 lanes and just one way to go where you won't see any cars coming toward you at all. You hardly see any motobikes on the roads except all cars and trucks.

The houses are different from the houses in Cambodia. All of the houses built out of concrete and some places you can see it is so high which is about 20 or even higher than that.

The weather is cold and cooler than it is in Cambodia in this time. It drops down to 10 or 6 degree C at night and early in the morning. So you'll need to put on jacket or jumpers in the house and outside the house.

The Aussie communities are so quiet compares to Cambodian communities where you can hear dogs bark, rooster, funeral and wedding ceremony's speakers blows out very loud till you can hear in between 2 to 3 km around. It's private here in Australia, which is good. People are friendly though. They smiles, they wave to each other.

We thanks Pastor Andrew Cook and his family and His Team for making this possible for us to be in Australia. Thanks Aussie friends !!! We love you all.

Anyway, It's wonderful!
But Praise God that He put us in Cambodia for purposes and destiny. Love you my God.
All Praises to my Heavenly Father, my Lord Jesus Christ, my Comforter Holy Spirit.
We love you.

Upbringing Story of Touch

Chenna and Simmy were raised in Buddhist homes before they became Christians. As young people they frequently visited the witchdoctor or fortunetellers when they were sick or going through hard times. Their homes included a 'spirit house' to encourage the presence of familiar spirits. Ancestral spirits were also worshipped.

As a child Chenna began going to a church weekly just to receive a five kg bag of rice to feed his family. Later when the rice ran out he continued attending church and started to read the Bible. Finally as a teenager he made a commitment and received Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour.

Chenna grew up spiritually very fast. After being baptized in the Holy Spirit he had a burning desire to worship God, and after teaching himself to play keyboard and guitar, was soon leading worship in his local church.

Having excellent English skills and previous experience as a translator, Chenna came to work in the Heartland Bible College of 2004, interpreting classes for Bible College Deans, Terry and Elizabeth Schroder.

At the end of Bible College, Chenna and Simmy were asked to remain on staff to assist in pastoring the first Heartland church planted in Kampong Cham.

Chenna has a great anointing on his life for worship and teaching of the Word. His wife Simmy is gifted in Children's work and evangelism. Together they are an awesome team.
