Dear Friends,

 

God bless you! We are so thankful for you and the help that you have been, not only to us,  but to many others as well. We pray this newsletter will help you to see just a few of the many whose lives you have helped to touch. “A little bit of love goes a long way.”

 

THE FIRST QUARTER of this year was a busy one for us. In JANUARY we took a short, much-needed time of rest to help get us geared for all that we will do this year.  We celebrated our anniversary as an international missionary movement in FEBRUARY. During this time we took the time to pray and plan, redirect and broaden our goals and focuses for reaching out to as many as we can. The end February also saw a six-man team of four adults and two children leave for a two-week trip of witnessing on the road! Destination: Manila - Tacloban - Catbalogan - Calbayog - Catarman - Allen - Sorsogon - Legaspi - Manila (For more related photos click here)

 

 

In MARCH, for the Lenten season, we held a mini-retreat for our Bible study group at the Correctional Institution for Women (CIW), to remember how Jesus gave His life for us, and we in turn should give our lives to help others. (For more related photos click here)

 

 

LATEST NEWS FLASH: In  answer to our prayers last year for a big, spacious house for us to rent for our mission center, the Lord led us to a house in February this year that seemed to fit the specifics  of what we prayed for. After two (2) months of praying, counselling & getting His confirmation, we are now staying in the house that we specifically prayed for. It is not only our mission base, but a home where missionaries live and work together; where we school and teach our children; host fellowship, Bible studies, seminars, etc. Thank the Lord! He once again fulfilled His promise to “supply all our needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus!” (Philippians 4:19). We thank you, too, for having prayed with us for this need!

 

We are expecting more answers to prayer, busy months, and many more people to help and reach out to in the coming months, and we’ll be sure to keep you updated! Thank you, again, so much for all your help, support and prayers. We truly couldn’t do this work without you. You are a constant in our prayers and thoughts.

 

May the Lord continue to bless you with health, happiness, love and peace, and prosper you, your families, and your businesses!

 

PRAYER REQUEST: We are in need of a utility vehicle for our mission work. If you might be able to help us with this need , we would deeply appreciate anything you can do towards this need. Or if you know of anyone who can help us with this need, please pass on this request. Thank you & God bless you!
