What’s the Question on your mind as you come to this session?

3. Beginning
A Research study by ICC explored the opportunities and challenges of the local church in Cambodia
This led to a conclusion that there was a role for ICC to play in supporting local churches, but exactly how was in question
At the same time Tearfund was sharing the experience of Umoja with partners
A key staff member saw Umoja as the answer to ICCs desire to work with the church
Pilot project is born 2012

Choosing the Churches - Criteria and drop out
Working with a Denomination - Partnership with New Life
Pastors Role - Involved but not necessarily facilitators
Geographical limits - Keeping close by
Spreading the Risk - Multiple facilitators and migration
Training in Stages - Learning by doing and mentors
Began to Show Fruit - Monitoring Framework evolved
