Church Recognized in Cambodia

The Church has received official recognition in Cambodia, according to the First Presidency. The announcement was made at Brigham Young University during a March 6 fireside address by President Gordon B. Hinckley, First Counselor in the First Presidency. The recognition came on the previous Friday.

Missionary couples called to Cambodia will be involved in service work only; they will not proselyte. This is the same status as missionary couples currently serving in neighboring Vietnam.
