Transformation
Programs and training are important in seeing communities transformed, but Manna4Life believes that real transformation comes through personal relationships. These relationships go beyond the limited time frames of programs and can be everlasting. Although these programs help facilitate growth and empower individuals it is our passion to see true transformation in the community both physically and spiritually. This holistic view is needed in order to open individuals up to their full potential as vibrant, active and contributing members of society. |

Incarnational Living
For us, incarnational living means living within the Tang Khiev community, sharing life's journey and engaging with our neighbors and friends.
Loving and living with our neighbours leads to a mutually respectful relationship instead of one of “them and us”. This mutual sharing of life's hardships and joys leads to rewarding friendships and meaningful conversations.

Empowerment
We will empower the community by working with them in a way that builds their confidence, and brings their skills and gifts to the forefront. The poor are often told that they are unskilled, not needed and unwanted. The community has been looking at themselves through the distorted eyes of the world and we encourage them to see themselves in a new light, one of hope and prosperity. This gives them a new outlook on their future with a sliver of hope in a world that seems determined on imprisoning them and their families in poverty. |

Servanthood
In order to serve we must take the posture of a servant both in the physical and spiritual self. We must also serve from this position and not one of strength and superiority. As we humble ourselves it opens up opportunities to build true relationships on a mutually respectful level. |
