It’s been a long time since I’ve put an update out here… an embarrassing long time! Sorry!
Since my last update, we made a trip home to the states for a couple of months and now we’re back in the Philippines, ready to welcome the Michigan District team coming tonight.
It was so nice to have some time back home with family and friends, but it’s also nice to be back home.
We have a lot going on over the next 8 or 9 months! As I mentioned earlier, the Michigan District team is arriving tonight. They will be with us until the 6th of November. On the 7th of November, the medical mission team from Susanville, CA is arriving. I will be traveling with them to Palawan and Samar and then they leave on the 17th of November. Then we have a month off, kind of… we don’t have any teams coming, but there’s still work to be done here.
In January, my home church is sending a team to come and work on the Cobb Worship Center. That will be a special time for me! I’m so excited to have some of my closest friends coming to serve with us. After they leave I have four teams coming before we head off for General Assembly in June. And when we get back from General Assembly, my home district is coming the very next week!
Please pray for the Michigan District as we not only help construct the Cobb Worship Center, but we will also have several opportunities for evangelism. On the second day they are here we will take the team to a Antipolo, a nearby city, and participate in a prison ministry and a hospital outreach. We will also be showing the Jesus film on Nov 2nd. We have a couple of other possibilities too, but we’ll see what the team wants to do.
Also pray for their safety. They will be working on scaffolding, working with cutting tools, welding, and sharp metal. So they could really use your daily prayers!
As usual, I will try to send out a daily update of the team’s progress and pictures/videos from the day. I think for this team I will begin sharing more pics and less written words.
Speaking of pictures, I have several I want to share with you for the last few months. I hope you enjoy them!
