About Prison Fellowship Cambodia

Beginning in 2000 Wes Lindquist and Rick Warren took a medical team into Correctional Center 1 ( CC1) prison. As they build a relationship with the prison Chief he opened up and told of the awful conditions and asked for some classes that would help bring about moral improvement. Wes’s drive and compassion for Cambodian prisoners became the DNA that PFC still caries today. In serving the needs of these prisoners, they were often asked why they wanted to help the prisoners, this lead to an opportunity to share their faith that compelled their actions. In 2001 Wes returned to the USA and Linda Chisholm began leading this team of dedicated volunteers. In the same year the team became a Prison Fellowship International affiliate and Prison Fellowship Cambodia was born. Prison Fellowship Cambodia is the national affiliate member of Prison Fellowship International chartered in 2002. Prison Fellowship Cambodia exists to see those affected by crime and imprisonment, restored and empowered to improve their communities. “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. ” — Matthew 25:35-36
