...at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10,11.

May the Lord continue to inspire our hearts with His presence while living and working with Him all the days of our lives!

I appreciated you so much for your prayers to our God for our mission in the Philippines to reach all people. I really believe in my heart God answers prayer all the time in His Will.

With this regard, I would like to share the victories I have gone this past week in the BadjaoVillage in Cebu. To God Be the Glory!

For event 3- May 14, when I gather and lead the Badjaos for prayer meeting. It was great sharing time with them and the Bible.

For event 4- May 17, in the morning worship with the Badjao was great and awesome with great singing and praises to our God. My emphasis was John 6 about the feeding of 5000 when our Lord raises up the 5 loaves and 2 fish, Jesus did not ask the Father for more but giving thanks instead so the miracle happens....I led them to the point that when there is scarcity of everything just look on to the Lord Jesus with Thanksgiving and miracle happens. Not just keep on craving because that spirit might overlook God's care and goodness in all times.

And after the worship service, as usual we do feeding favorite arrozcaldo inside the church. These brothers and sisters are so thankful with Words in message during worship and this feed.

For event 5- after the service and feeding, one of the leaders told me to go visit two sick childrem who suffer fever; then I prayed for healing and provided the parents some peso to buy milk and food.

For event 6- At around 6 in the afternoon, I gathered the leaders so that we could hold a gospel video beside the church so that we could minister to the other Badjaos who are not joining the sunday services with the Word of God outside. There came 4 new Badjaos who trusted Jesus as their Savior and God and said that they are willing to learn more about the Bible.

My work in this Badjao Village will be until this 24th in the morning only and I will be travelling back home to Davao on the evening by boat and arrive Davao on the 25th and do some remaining days in mission with my family in some villages and churches there.

Please continue to pray for the good weather because I had to postpone two schedules with churches who arranged with me for the gospel film showing in their outreaches due heavy rains Saturday and yesterday Monday. My next schedule for gospel preaching in the village using films will be in the adjacent village of This Badjao tribe which is the Cebuanos; this will be May 20. After we do prayer in the afternoon I will commute with my Badjao leader named Elmo to another village to preach Christ there. And, this May 22 I have a meeting with Pastor Jaime Pancho at 4:pm of Ebenezer Baptist Church to plan, discuss and arrange with him the feeding and gospel film showing in one of His outreaches in Consolacion Cebu this May 23 Saturday. Please join us pray with thanksgiving for good weather so that we could pursue the people who have not heard the good news about what Jesus did at the cross on Calvary.

I will talk to you soon. Words of gratitude is not enough. God Bless you so!
