Philippines Mission Letter: May 2022

Dear Brethren, 

May the Lord fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him. 

We are always grateful to God for blessing us with the opportunity to continue to work in His vineyard. Last month, we focused on helping our brethren strengthen their faith. We grouped the brethren according to their location, and we were able to set up 4 different schedules. We met at the church building those who live near to it, and the rest at an open area in their own barangay. We will do this weekly for at least 5 meetings; then, we will proceed to other areas where the brethren are living. As we meet together to encourage and build up the faith of the brethren through singing, praying, and studying God’s powerful words, we are also happy to see the presence of some of their friends, relatives, and children. 

Every Monday morning all the municipal employees are required to observe the flag-raising ceremony. Before the flag raising on May 16th, I was asked to lead a prayer for our town and give a few minutes of encouragement from the Word of God. After it, we proceeded to the different departments of our local government, which we do regularly, to conduct moral recovery program by teaching values education. Last month, sister Melody Ibasan came back to the Lord after our visit with her and her family when they were grieving for the passing away of their beloved grandfather. Our ladies were able to attend the Ladies’ Day last month held at one of the congregations in our province. Many had come from different regions and provinces. They enjoyed being with other ladies who are also faithfully serving the Lord. 

We are always grateful and thankful for all that you do for the work of the Lord here in the Philippines. 

Your love, prayers, care, kindness, and support are helping a
