Cambodia

Spiritual darkness persists in Cambodia, from the many spirit shrines, the powerful grip of Buddhism that opposes Truth, and the widespread loss of morals. Only prayer will lift it. The enemy of souls makes people suffer under terrible abuses and oppressive poverty. The wealthy and those connected to the ruling party grab land and plunder […]

Burundi

Young people and children suffered the brunt of the violence, upheaval and poverty of the last decades. But the majority of Burundi’s population is below 18 years old; most Burundians have no living memory of the dark days of genocide.
