FIELD WORKERS + PARTNERS - ACCI
Alex Loh
Alex loves Jesus, the local church, culture, food and humour, and it's heaven on earth when he can use his interests to further what God has called him to do in Japan. To an avid traveller, history buff and food lover, Japan has long been a treasure trove of wonders for Alex. Yet, all isn't well in the Land of the Rising Sun, and the spiritual darkness and relational poverty Alex saw plaguing the nation spurred him onto the missions field. Based long-term in Osaka, Alex actively helps to preach the Gospel, lead prayer and small group meetings, conduct Bible studies, disciple new believers, and train up new leaders at a local church. At the same time he’s also embedding himself into the local community, researching the local culture, teaching English, building networks, doing outreaches, developing Christian resources, and indulging in culinary delights. Alex is grateful to his home church (Enjoy) and ACCI for their ongoing spiritual and practical support, as well as to his home supporters for their invaluable friendships and for praying him through innumerable on-the-field challenges. Having served God's mission in Japan for over five years, Alex is stirred spiritually for more of what Jesus wants him to do for the Japanese people. Alex's heart is drawn to the vulnerable young and is strategising to tackle the spiritual and systemic strongholds preying on them. Alex invites you to partner with him, prayerfully and financially, so he may step more into revealing God’s Father heart to give institutionalised children their own families, and continue walking out God's call on his life in Japan.

The Project also focuses on strengthening families of children who are orphaned or abandoned, so that they can continue to care for children within the community. This prevents families from breaking down. Families are not just supported financially, but will be engaged in broader community development programs to build their capacity and knowledge and ensure children in extended family care can access education, received adequate food and nutrition, and to prevent further issues and illness in their home.

Nearly 75% of the 12,000 children living in orphanages in Cambodia have at least one living parent (UNICEF). Poverty and limited access to education are the main reasons why these children are placed in residential care, away from their own families and communities. Children in Families exists to place vulnerable children in loving families. Children in Families understands that for children’s healthy development, the love, nurturing and security of a permanent family unit is required. For those children who cannot be reunited with their birth parents, CIF finds permanent Cambodian families for children through kinship care and long-term foster care and supports their journey.
