Gigi and I will be traveling to the US for our fall church reporting and fundraising efforts.
We will be in the US from October 10 through December 10. Our travels will take us through Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Texas, and possibly a few other places along the way!
We ask for your prayers for good health and safe travel.
Thank you to all the congregations willing to accept our request to come visit! We can’t wait to see you all!
Construction Update – Staff/Visitor Housing
Progress is ongoing for our latest construction project.
Despite it being typically monsoon season in the Philippines, it did not arrive as early as in previous years, allowing us to quickly get the structure out of the ground.
The building will consist of 6 separate housing units for full-time staff as well as overnight visitors.
Song Books Request Update
We are delighted to inform you that we have received a positive response to our request for songbooks in the last newsletter.
The Portland church of Christ in Portland, Texas has agreed to provide us with the requested books.
We are extremely grateful and excited about this new development!
After Careful Consideration…It’s a Van!
We have purchased a Toyota Commuter Deluxe van as the latest addition to our transportation fleet.
For some time, we have been seeking donations for a minibus to help with our transportation challenges, as we are accommodating more children in our care. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who contributed to this request.
After researching the current cost of the proposed minibus ($71,000) and considering the maneuverability on the narrow roads near the schools the children attend, we have chosen to purchase a brand-new larger van instead of the bus, believing it to be a wiser choice.
Thanks to everyone for your assistance in acquiring this much-needed van!
Hebrews 10:22-24
22let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. 23Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. 24And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works,
