A Catholic community established 130 years ago in western Cambodia but destroyed during the civil war and Khmer Rouge rule has been brought back to life.
Twenty-eight villagers were baptized last Easter, marking the re-establishment of a Catholic community in Ta Om village in Banteay Meanchey province.
The Church has for a decade been actively involved in development work in the village, including building a public primary school and embarking on literacy courses and hygiene and sanitation projects.
