Our Ministry

We've been here in the Philippines for more than a month already. I've been so glad to see my family whom I missed so much while I was in the US. It's so good to be home after more than 5 years of living in a foreign land. Texas became my homeland for the past five years and I learned to love the place and the people there. When hubby and I left our home in Wichita Falls I can't help myself but cry. It's been my home for 4 years and there were many memories there. But we have to do what the good Lord wants us to do and that is to go back in the Philippines and do missionary works. We've been praying about this for many months and the Lord had given us the means to go back to the Philippines. Hubby had to quit his job and left his family, friends and loved ones there. I know it's a sacrifice on his part but it's nothing compared to what Jesus Christ had done for us. He gave His life so we could be saved from our sins.

We've been having our services in our house already during Sundays and Wednesdays. Hubby is the one preaching and my family here are the attendees. We had invited a pastor to come and preach this coming Sunday afternoon at 3:00 PM and we will be inviting people to attend. I already invited some of my neighbors to come on Sunday and listen to the message. We are also planning to have a film showing on Wednesday nights and invite people to come. We will be meeting in our carport for the meantime until we will find a place to hold our services. We've been preparing it and my youngest brother is in the process of installing electric outlets and lights. We also bought 15 monobloc chairs last weekend which cost P140 each. We will buy some more when we have more funds. We ordered a wooden pulpit and we got it yesterday. It's really nice and we paid P2,500. This is all for the cause of Christ and I pray that God will bless our ministry and He will give us more souls to lead to the Lord and get saved.

A Recent Miracle In Egypt

A Muslim man in Egypt killed his wife because she was reading the Bible and then buried her with their infant baby and an 8-year old daughter. The girls were buried alive! He then reported to the police that an uncle killed the kids. 15 days later, another family member died. When they went to bury him,they found the 2 little girls under the sand - ALIVE! The country is outraged over the incident, and the man will be executed. The older girl was asked how she had survived and she says:- "A man wearing shiny white clothes, with bleeding wounds in his hands, came every day to feed us. He woke up my mom so she could nurse my sister," she said. She was interviewed on Egyptian national TV, by availed Muslim woman news anchor. She said on public TV, "This was none other than Jesus, because nobody else does things like this!" Jesus would do this, but the wounds mean He really was crucified, and it's clear also that He is alive! But, it's also clear that the chi...

The Power Of Prayer

My hubby requested to our pastor that he would like to preach in our church before we leave Texas for the Philippines. So my hubby got to preach Wednesday night. His message was about PRAYER. Before he started his message, he told the congregation how the good Lord has answered our prayers. For many months, we've been praying to the good Lord that we can sell our house and give us the means so we can go back to the Philippines. My hubby even set a goal that he would like to go to the Philippines by the end of this year. I told him it's impossible because it's not easy to sell a house these days. It was already October and still we didn't have a buyer. But then, we kept on praying and believing that God will answer our prayers in His time and He did. God sent us a buyer of our house on the 1st week of November. Now we're getting ready to go back to the Philippines. It's really amazing how the good Lord answers prayers. If you pray, believe that you will receive i...

Satan's War On Prayer

I was going through my files yesterday and I was sorting those papers when I happened to see this printed in a bond paper. I got this from my e-mail long time ago before I went to the US. I liked the message so I printed it. I'm glad I did so I can share it here. This was written by Father Harold Hammond. All of us, from time to time, have had problems in our prayer time. Has this ever happened to you: Sometimes when you begin to pray, you remember that there is something else you have to do. Perhaps make a phone call, do an errand. Sometimes when you pray, you become bored and say the words of prayer out of your head instead of your heart. Sometimes when you pray, you become so sleepy that you can hardly keep your eyes open. Sometimes you become lazy and just don't want to pray. You want to do something else, anything else. Sometimes when you pray, disturbing thoughts come to you such as , "Is this all true? Am I really doing anything worthwhile.I really don't feel an...
