Despite lacking the kind of dramatic revivals which gave birth to Pentecostal and charismatic movements in other Asian nations, Pentecostal movements in Cambodia and Laos have experienced remarkable growth since 1990, having especially benefitted from broad international efforts and support of both traditional and new missionary-sending nations. This chapter begins with an outline of early missionary endeavours, then explores some of the devastating challenges of the 20th century, which led to the suppression but ultimate rebirth of the church. The development of the Pentecostal movement included a few major public outreach events by international ministries, particularly in Cambodia. Furthermore, cooperative international efforts across denominations have been a long-standing feature of Christian work in these two nations. Pentecostal ministerial training has been an important way to spread the gospel, opening opportunities for church planting drives by groups and individuals. Community development programmes have also been a significant feature of the Pentecostal movement in both of these countries since 1990. In the final section of the chapter areas for future research are suggested.
