Combodian Church

Catholics in Cambodia gathered in prayer for Pope Francis’ healing as he remains hospitalized at Gemelli Hospital in Rome.

Cambodia mourned the death of a leading Catholic lay leader, who was an avid promoter of inter-religious dialogue in the country.

Two Khmer Rouge rockets struck this cathedral in 1972 during the Cambodian War, when the communists were waging war to seize power from the monarchy.

“I do hope, like me, more young people receive scholarships and high-quality education to build their lives and futures,” Pili said.

Mr. San Saroeun encouraged the young people to serve others and the parish in their area, continue to live by the testimony of faith in the workplace and live by sharing good deeds with others, especially those who are abandoned by society.

Msgr. Pierre Hangly said, "You are the living stone, together to protect the house of the Holy Spirit, so the church is important to receive Christ, and Catholics have a vital role to play in receiving God to show mercy to others.”

"Happiness does not refer to wealth but to living together with love, faith and joy in the heart," said Msgr. Seila Suon Hangly
