Renew, Revive, Refresh

May 28, 2023

Thank you for praying for us! It has been a fabulous year, though exhausting starting our programs up again. God strengthened us for the task, and we all grew in the process, but most importantly, God was glorified. Our school-wide theme was “Renew, Revive, Refresh,” and we saw God do that in all of us.

Happy February! “How we thank God for you! Because of you we have great joy in the presence of God… 12 And may the Lord make your love grow and overflow to each other and to everyone else, just as our love overflows toward you.” (1Thess. 3:9-12) We praise God for the wonderful time that […]

Thankful in 2022

November 6, 2022

Happy Thanksgiving! First quarter is over, and it is already November. We are praising God that we are allowed to do face-to-face classes with our sports and fine arts programs. It is exciting to see everything running again! But we have discovered that starting all of our programs is exhausting, so please pray for strength […]

Thankful for a Great End

July 3, 2022

We are so thankful that Faith Academy (FA) was allowed to have face-to-face classes in February, and that there was no spike in COVID numbers, allowing us to continue to the end of school. COVID numbers dropped so our Alert Level dropped to 1, which has the lowest restrictions. At that level, things opened even […]

Unchartered Territory

Thank you for your prayers: God answered! The alert level for our area has been lowered to level 2, which means we can now start face-to-face classes! It has been quite a whirlwind at school as we get ready to implement all the protocols we need to implement in order for this to happen. Walter […]

Hope

January 19, 2022

As the new year began, we were able to get out of the city and enjoy a few days at the beach with another family. It was nice to relax and enjoy God’s nature, the pounding of the waves, sea life in the tide pools and a break from all the work. There was going […]

Happy New Year

December 31, 2021

We thank God for all the He did in 2021! The first half of 2021 was in the US which we thoroughly loved being with friends and family! But for the second half, God opened the door for us to return to the Philippines! For first semester everything was still in lockdown in the Philippines, […]

Thankful to be in the Philippines

October 13, 2021

We are thankful to be back serving in the Philippines, and we are thankful for all of you who pray and give financially which enables us to be here. There was a recent international article that stated that the Philippines is the worst place in the world to live during the Pandemic, but we are […]

We have arrived!

July 25, 2021

Thank you all for praying for us. We arrived safely a week ago and just this morning we received the certificate for our negative Covid test and permission to finish our 14-day quarantine at home! We had friends pick us up and bring us to our house and buy us some fresh food. It is […]

Leaving on a Jet Plane

July 14, 2021

It is hard to believe that our short, rescheduled home assignment time has come to an end. Lord willing, we will fly to the Philippines this week. We have spent the last year wondering when we would be able to return to the Philippines while continuing to carry out our roles with Faith Academy here […]
