The Purpose and Vision of ATA Mission
ATA (Adventist to Asia) is a mission initiative with the purpose of providing ongoing support to mission fields, tailored to each missionary's unique gifts and abilities. By embracing the diverse strengths and characteristics of our missionaries, we seek to share and demonstrate the love of God to local communities and individuals in Asia.
In Korea, we are working in collaboration with Sahmyook Health University and Sahmyook Language Institute to train and equip missionaries. Through this partnership, we aim to help them fully develop and utilize their abilities so they can serve effectively in their respective mission fields.
Additionally, in cooperation with ADRA Korea, we are preparing missionaries not only in skills but also in spirit—helping them cultivate a true missionary mindset and embrace the Seventh-day Adventist Church’s commitment to social service and responsibility.
In Cambodia, we are working in partnership with the Essential Life Center (ELC) to support both the local community and the various initiatives of ELC.
Through these efforts, we strive to raise missionaries who live out God's love both in word and in action.

Phnom Penh – Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution
Street crime, particularly phone and bag snatchings, occurs frequently in areas where foreigners gather; resistance can result in injury. Be aware of your surroundings at all times and to be extra vigilant when displaying items like jewelry, bags and cell phones in public. Violent crime, such as sexual assault and homicide, is common, sometimes against foreigners.
Do not physically resist any robbery attempt. Use caution when walking or driving at night.
