The Episcopal Diocese of Panrieng
The Church must develop the society
The Episcopal Diocese of Panrieng believes that the Church has a responsibility to develop the society spiritually ( this is in terms of opening many preaching centers and construct concrete Churches and well built infrastructures). The Church has a responsibility of sending many young people to theological trainings for the better future of God’s Church in our land. The Church also has a role to provide an education with Christian values (opening of schools both primary and secondary levels). Peace building in the area is one of the most important programs of our diocese, for without peace there is no development.
