Hello, we are the Wall family, Darren, Susan, Elspeth and Catriona. Our home is in Inverness where Darren flew with the RAF and Susan was a teacher. Even before we were married in 1995, we both felt the Lord might be calling us to serve Him overseas and so, in 1999, we started a process of enquiry and subsequent application to serve with OMF International.
During that process, the Lord confirmed his calling for us to serve Him in Cambodia. At the end of 2003 we moved to Glasgow where we studied at International Christian College in preparation for this service.
In March 2005 we arrived in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. During our first year here we completed the initial phase of full time Khmer language study, settled into a Khmer neighbourhood and started worshipping at a Khmer church which meets close to our home. The girls have been attending Hope International School, a British curriculum school here in Phnom Penh. They are very settled, but do find it difficult when friends leave Cambodia either temporarily or permanently, as is the common experience of Third Culture Kids (TCKs).
In May 2006, Darren took over the role of the OMF Cambodia Team Business Manager, for the Team of approximately 80 adults and 50 children. In August 2006, Susan started teaching part-time at Hope International School. She has also provided relief management for the OMF Team Centre in Phnom Penh as well as running a weekly club for the OMF children.
In December 2008, we completed our first term in Cambodia, returning to the UK for a 7 month Home Assignment. We since returned to Cambodia in August 2009, in the same roles as we held during our first term. However, as of February 2010, Susan, having finished her teaching commitment at Hope School, is expected to start teaching English at the Ministry of Cults & Religions, as part of OMF’s Memorandum of Understanding with them.
We have been privileged to be called by God to serve Him and experience His grace in what is an exciting church growth environment. We are, though, one part of a much bigger team, probably including you, that God has brought together to fulfil His Kingdom purposes in this ministry.
We thank you for your interest in this work, trusting that you will know God’s blessing in this.

When using chopsticks the lower one is firm and steady whilst the top one moves about.
The upper one is dependent on the firm stable lower one for success.
Susan says this is like the relationship between missionary and prayer supporter.
Without the solid foundation provided by faith-full prayer partners their mission would flounder in a bowl of noodles.
