“ORPHANS – Pure & Undefiled Part One” tells the story of a Christian orphanage in Cambodia, begun by pastor Dara Hen and his wife Savun. Here a generation of children are growing up in the nurture and instruction of the Lord Jesus Christ, when otherwise they would be left to the streets or raised in Buddhist temples.
“Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.” – James 1:27
Scenes from the Film
While evangelizing in the streets of Cambodia, Pastor Dara Hen saw many orphans in his community who were neglected and abused, trying to survive on their own. Seeing these children in distress, Dara was moved to begin an orphanage where not only the children’s physical needs could be met, but where they could grow in the nurture and instruction of the Word of God. In 2008, Dara began the Orphanage “One In Love” with five children. Today it is home to twenty-five.
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” –Mathew 19:14
