Cambodian Call

Charis Crowley Writes a Journalist Who Thinks Missionaries Should Leave

Dear Sir: It was with great interest that I read your account of your three memorable visits to Ratanakiri province in Cambodia.

Ratanakiri is my home. My family has lived there for nine years now, and I lived there for six. I am currently attending college here in the States while my parents and siblings remain in Cambodia. I enjoyed hearing you describe places so familiar and loved. Ratanakiri truly is a wonderful province with much potential, and my heart will always be there.

"Here we do not concede one square millimeter of territory to falsehood, folly, contemporary sentimentality, or fashion. We speak the truth, and let God be our judge. . . . Touchstone is the one committedly Christian conservative journal."
