About 11 young people are attending the Youth Club at Sitio Malalim regularly. It is encouraging to see them participate actively during Bible study time. Some have professed to accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour. Please pray for God’s protection of these young souls from the influence of gambling and drugs prevalent in the area. […]

We sought the Lord’s will and began construction of a gathering place at Sitio Malalim. Posts were erected and roof installed, not complete, just sufficient to protect from rain. Typhoon Kammuri hit the area only a day after construction completed. We feared that the new roof would be flying everywhere. Praise God, it survived its […]

Alongside the teaching of chronological Bible lessons, we are running a memory verse program. Each verse summarizes a key concept from the lesson. The kids are practicing their verses regularly, and many are getting their parents to help them! Please pray for these young ones. […]

Pitogo outreach has new Bible study attendees and new children attending the kids’ club. As in any ministry, there are always challenges. Different sects have come to the area and local faith leaders have been discouraging new believers from attending our Bible study. Please pray for discernment. […]

Typhoon Kammuri hit our island and village hard! As far as we know, no lives were lost. Thank you, Lord! It is estimated that the electricity will be out of commission for at least a week or more, so we are thankful to the Lord for our generator! It will run about 50% of the […]

The children at Sitio Malalim are always excited to come to the Bible Club. They sing Sunday school songs with actions and learn memory verses.

Emil is busy with school and enjoys being able to build relationships with the 9th and 10th graders. We have begun the second semester of school. There are many that are coming after school now. Please pray that each of these boys would know and follow the Lord. […]

The Lord has allowed us to rent a space in town and we are fixing it up, as a livelihood project for a widow. We envision it becoming a coffee shop, where she can sell her incredible baked goods, and where we could meet for Bible studies with town people. Thank you, Lord! […]

A fellow missionary friend has started offering her counseling expertise in Shepherd’s Home, developing relationships with the children and helping with some of their particular needs. We are constantly encouraged to see interest of moms’ and workers’ in doing daily Bible reading assignments and sharing what they have learned. Please pray for them. […]

Please pray for wisdom for Dennis as he finishes preparing Bible lessons. Important truths are being communicated in the local language! Please pray for the logistics of the teaching to come together, mainly how many times to teach weekly and the best date to start. […]

One of the Bible study attendees at Sitio Malalim offered a provisional meeting place. It is a knocked-down house, but the concrete flooring is still intact. We hope to erect four posts and roof framing. It will be a temporary structure until the Lord takes us to the next step. […]
