    April 2013

    Greetings from the city known as "The Seat of Christianity" in the Philippines. Pray that we can be a part of bringing that statement to fruition in the city of Cebu. We are blessed and excited to be working for the Lord here where in reality, less than 5% of the population in Cebu are true Christians. It is now summer in Cebu and school is out for 2 months. The temperatures will be 90-100 and about 95% humidity. EASTER/SONRISE SERVICE

    We left our house at 2:30am to pick up people needing a ride to our meeting place where over 130 men, women and children departed for the beach at 3am. We started the service at 4:30am with praise and worship as we celebrated Resurrection Sunday reading the story of Edith Burns, AKA Edith Easter, shared a message entitled "Celebrate" and baptized 12 new believers. (Was to be 13 but 1 could not make it). Later in the day we found out that a dear friend of our church, a former worship leader for our Young Adults, one of my youth members when I was leading youth at Calvary Chapel Cebu City in Talamban and my friend, had gone to be with the Lord after over 3 years with MS earlier that morning. We shared a time of prayer for her and her family and celebrated her life the rest of our time there.

    SETTLING IN
    We are now settled in and back in the swing of things as we continue to serve the Lord in Cebu. Pastor Bong, Pastor Eddie and I have resumed our monthly Pastor's prayer meeting, we have been reunited with our dogs and receive much love from them daily, our ministry involvements have resumed, I have been teaching now for 4 weeks and we are moving forward as the Lord directs.

    GRADUATES AND HONOR STUDENTS


    For the fourth year in a row we have been recognized in a ceremony at Camp Lapu-Lapu Elementary school for our coming along side of them in helping children get educated and for our feeding program. It was exciting watching as so many of the children that you sponsor were graduated from High school and elementary. Also many of the students we sponsor were given special awards for behavior, many for honesty and integrity, things I believe they learn from their time at the church.

Also our intern from last year has completed her 2nd year with us and they will both now be testing to go to college in Cebu to get a degree in education. When they pass they will continue to live at the church and help with ministry on week-ends. I am very proud of both of them and blessed to have had them serve their internships with us.

    On April 12th, we will leave the Senior Pastor's and Wives conference with a new intern who will help us in ministry for a year as we develop and teach her ministry skills and leadership. Her name is Grace Eli.
