A time of transition....

Hi everyone,

Well sadly..(....but not too sadly), this will be our last blog post as we've made the move to communications via facebook now!!

For those that are unaware - we registered a private limited company known as Future Now Enterprises Cambodia with the Cambodian Government back in April 2009.

Future Now Enterprises will be the entity to which we will do all things related to business and new business development - being an expression of our call to business as mission in Cambodia. This business entity will still have a strong link to the mission of Christian City Church Whitehorse (CCCW) in Cambodia and will compliment the work we do regarding helping the local church become sustainable (ie. through church leadership seminars & ministry training). In terms of these such activities - they will continue to be done within Cambodia under the name of Connect Cambodia.

The vision of Future Now Enterprises will be to develop profitable business led initiatives through a range of equity partnership models in Cambodia – partnering with local Christian entrepreneurs. In this we're seeking to equip and empower individual's dreams here in Cambodia in particular where there is a heart and passion to serve the local community and church through business.

Please add the following link to the new Future Now Enterprises Cambodia facebook homepage: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=110951459759

Given we only have limited resources and time - we've decided to limit our updates to this new facebook homepage from now onwards. It will contain regular posts, including recent pics & video. In addition, there is greater opportunity for you to give us feedback on what information you'd like to know and for us to chat more freely and openly given facebooks social networking capabilities. We'd definitely be more than happy to chat about any of the work here - so make sure you look out for us next time your online in facebook!

We're really excited about what the future holds for us here....we're continuing to see some incredible opportunities opening up to us -- so we're definitely believing for some great days ahead!

Look forward to hearing from you.
Lots of love.

Mark & Jo
