Almost

December 5, 2016

After years of praying, months of meetings, and believers around the world giving, we almost have land in the village for the new home of Faith Bible Church. Last month, the believers in the village selected a piece of land and approached the “owners” to see if they would like to sell. Within hours, the […]

Thanksgiving Update

November 22, 2016

Thanksgiving Day will mark exactly four months since I, Ginger, fell down the stairs and injured my elbow, so I have many more basic things I am thankful for this year. I am thankful for a family who each joined in to do the work that I was not able to do, from making meals […]

Not Judged

November 8, 2016

Starting in July, I, Ginger, have had the privilege of working alongside the ladies with the Kids’ Bible Club. We meet every Friday afternoon to talk about the lesson for the week, and to explain any crafts they may be making with the kids. At first, we had Bible story lessons that were already written […]

New Faces New View

September 10, 2016

Written by Rebekah: As missionary kids, it is always fun to have relatives or friends come over to the Philippines for a visit. Just last month, my Grandma Sue and Aunt Marcia came over for a two-week visit. This wasn’t my grandmother’s first visit but it was my aunt’s first visit. Aunt Marcia saw everything […]

One of the Sweetest Prayers I’ve Ever Heard . . .

August 12, 2016

. . . and I didn’t even hear much of it. For the last several weeks, one of my daily routines is to go visit Tay Hesus. As you know, he has stage 4 cancer and his body is losing the battle. Over the last few weeks, he has grown weaker and weaker. Because of […]

What Would The Door Say?

August 2, 2016

“Ouch!” Yesterday, we traveled three hours back to the village, unpacked, and prepared for another week of school and work. This morning, as Stephen was outside, he noticed that something wasn’t quite right with the outside door. Upon closer examination, he noticed that a board was out of place. Our doors have large spaces at […]

When God Pushes the Pause Button

July 25, 2016

The last few months, everything seemed to be going well, very well. Friend Sunday in May was a success with over 50 visitors to church; Sports Bible Camp reached almost 50 teens; weekly attendance in Youth Group is averaging over 30; the new Kids’ Bible Club started with an attendance of 47 kids; the Luke […]

I’m not afraid to die

July 6, 2016

For several weeks now, one of our believers, Hesus, hasn’t been able to attend church services on Sunday. So, this past Sunday, after the morning service, Ginger and I took a short walk over to Hesus’ house. A short walk it was but something Hesus can’t do anymore; he can’t even get out of bed. […]

Blessings in the Flies

June 24, 2016

Written by Ginger: We have recently discovered that there seems to be a third season this year. We have shared with you in the past that the Philippines has two seasons, rainy and dry. However, the third season this year is “fly season”. At first, we thought it was only our house that was over-populated […]
