On December 18, Faith Bible Church hosted an evangelistic Christmas presentation, entitled “A Christmas to Believe In.”  Over 20 believers participated in this presentation as various actors.  Songs were also sung by the Young Ladies’ Choir and children of Kids’ Bible Club.  Over 50 visitors both heard the Christmas story and also received a Christmas […]

As a child, did you go to a Christian Camp?  If you did, it probably was the highlight of your summer!  You made new friends, and you probably made decisions concerning your walk with the Lord. Just a few weeks ago, our Faith Bible Church family in the Philippines received an invitation to send our […]

Just a few hours ago, we wrapped up the Third Anniversary celebration for Faith Bible Church.  We, along with the believers, had a wonderful weekend and were encouraged through the preaching of God’s Word by two guest speakers and through fellowship with other believers from distant locations on the island. The main speaker, Nilo, was […]

During this time of Thanksgiving, I want to thank the Lord and share my appreciation for all the partners God has provided for His work among the Agutaynens.  Prior to our former partners, the Zimmermann Family, return to their homeland, we decided not to ask the mission for another missionary family to join us.  Our […]

Yesterday was the finale of Sports Bible Camp with Championship Day.  In front of 200+ villagers, 60 teens played their final games.  These villagers received a gospel tract from Chick Publications entitled “Iyan ang Batas” (The Law), which was the theme of the Camp and all the Gospel messages shared in a variety of ways.  […]

This is a great question for all of us to remind ourselves of the purpose of Sports Bible Camp.  It isn’t so teens can play basketball or volleyball.  It isn’t to give prizes and trophies.  So, why do we host this event?  To share the Good News that salvation is received by faith alone in […]

The past two Saturdays, teens […]
