Poverty Alleviation ministry in Vietnam

We are delighted to begin a new partnership with Saigon Reformed Presbyterian Church, located in Santa Ana, California, to implement poverty alleviation ministries in rural Vietnam.

Led by Pastor Nguyen Xuan Bao, Saigon Church has been on at least 138 mission trips to Vietnam. Their ministry includes water well construction, bridge construction, and rice bag distribution. Our partnership will focus on the water well ministry.

The wells provide clean sources of local water to villagers who are desperately poor. Their houses have no running water, and the people have been drinking unclean water from storage containers.
View the water well construction starting at 45:00 in the video.

Mission Trip Testimony

Greetings,
            My name is Chau Ngoc Nguyen, currently working as a pharmacist at St. Francis Hospital in Columbus, GA. I am very honored to have the opportunity to accompany Pastor and PhD. Nguyen Xuan Bao in the 138th mission trip. We traveled from Quang Nam to Ca Mau distributing rice bags, inaugurating a new bridge of charity, witnessing freshly-built wells, as well as eyeing herds of goats in Cam Ranh.
           Owing to the opportunity to travel along side with Rev. Bao and other companions on this journey embarking from the Central Vietnam and heading South, I got to witness the significant hardship and struggle they experienced.

Project Background

Beneficiaries: Ngọc Lăc Community
Population:  200 people 
Four Tribal Groups: Kinh, Mường , Giao, Thánh

There are more than 200 members of the Ngọc Lăc Church, but the regular attendees are usually only 35-45 people in the main church and 15-25 people in the two groups of Lang Chanh and Quang Trung. Some of these faithful attendees live as far away as 55 km (34 miles) from the church.

The church members are of four ethnic groups: Kinh, Mường , Giao, and Thánh, and there are over 70 children from among these ethnic groups in the church as well. Worship services are held in the universal Chinese language.

New Project: Tribal Poverty Relief in Vietnam

​We are pleased to partner with Vietnam Tribal Ministry to serve the local tribal people in rural Vietnam. Our first project will be to help the community in the mountainous areas of Thanh Hoa province get clean water.

Water Wells​

The members of Ngoc Lac Church live in a mountainous area in Thanh Hoa province. Due to the geographical challenges, these families face many economic difficulties. They especially are in need of a clean water resource. 

Currently the community's water source is from a water storage lake at the foot of a mountain. The local people must carry a pot on their heads and walk a long way to get water to fill their cement reservoirs at home. As the water flows through the mountain area, it does not meet hygiene standards. The local people desperately need a source of clean water. Out of all the challenges the locals face, having clean water is the top priority.
