Greetings from the Philippines

Greetings from the Philippines

Thank you for your constant prayers for the work here.

Two weeks ago I had the privilege of preaching a series of sermons at a funeral program that ran for 9 nights. The family and neighbors gathered at the home of the dead man each night for the program.

Last week I attended the final classes in Tagbilaran to complete my studies toward a Doctorate of Divinity focusing in Missions. On Saturday I brought Lilia, Daniel, Timothy, several of the members of the Church and some pastor friends to the graduation ceremony in Tagbilaran.

We had been praying about the future of a mission to help the blind and looking for options to continue the program after having the funding from the Korean Government cut off. The church board has decided to continue the program and trust God to provide the finances for it to continue. This is an answer to prayer.

Daniel’s broken bone in his foot is healing well. I removed the cast myself several weeks ago and his foot is regaining its strength. LaRaine sent Daniel a pair of high back running shoes to protect his feet that he wears to school now.

The youth program at our church has just started meetings on Friday nights again. I preached there last night. It is encouraging to see how many young people are participating. Some of the youth (including James and some of his cousins) have started an evangelistic outreach program of there own on Saturday afternoons.
