Good Times in the Philippines!!!

The Frontline Worship Center has effectively been reaching people and helping them find their way back to God. This has been witnessed in the baptism of 26 new believers! (Thundering applause) It was an exciting experience, and some in the audience were in tears. It’s truly wonderful to see people willing to make an announcement of their faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 

Twelve new believers were baptized at the Blubox, Frontline Worship Center’s main campus. Fourteen were baptized at the new campus, Santisimo.


We rejoice along with the angels!!! (“In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." Luke 15:10)

"Linggo ng Wika"

     

No, we weren’t raided by tribesmen. These are our elementary student during our “Linggo ng Wika” which is a week-long national recognition of the Philippine’s national heroes. The students reenact a lot of different stories of the history of the Philippines.


The kids also did some more traditional dances for us as entertainment.

 

       

God has given me the awesome privilege of being able to have an impact on the lives of these kids. I have been given the opportunity to teach here in the Frontline Christian Academy (FCA). I am teaching Bible to the 3rd and 4th year high-school students and, as of tomorrow, I will also be teaching math to the 3rd year students as well. I might even be teaching P.E. soon to all the high-school students. It’s been a great experience getting to know each of the students. Being a teacher has given me a unique opportunity to get to know the lives of each of the students and I have been able to counsel a few of them. Here is a picture of my 4th year class.

Please keep me in your prayers as God is really doing a work in the lives of these kids here and I am honored to be apart of it. God Bless!!
