Dear Family and Friends:
“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good
pleasure,” Phil. 2:13. I have been reading the book of Acts lately,
and God impressed upon me the simple message of the first three words
of Acts 19:11, “And God wrought special miracles by the hands of
Paul.” As I move into a second year of deputation, I continue to see
God working in and through me for His glory. I continue praying for
Him to direct me to the churches He has chosen for me to present my
ministry at.
I have been home with my family in New York for much of April and May.
This time at home allowed me to contact new churches and pastors for
meetings. I traveled on weekends to visit churches in New England,
New Jersey, and New York. The Lord blessed each meeting, and I
greatly enjoyed fellowshipping with like-minded believers.
One special project I am working on is collecting music books to take
back to the Philippines with me. I am looking for both classical and
sacred music for piano or voice. In October 2008 I visited a college
library in northern Pennsylvania. There was a book sale at the time,
and I asked the librarian if she might have some music books. She did
have a set of music education curricula (complete from K-8th grade),
but it was not off the shelves yet. She contacted me this month to
tell me the books are available now. I asked for the price, and she
told me she was giving them to me free of charge! Praise the Lord for
how He provides!
Please pray for the following requests:
1. Safety as I drive long distances alone.
2. Wisdom as I contact new churches for meetings.
3. Financial support. My support level is currently at 44%.
4. Opportunities to witness
5. Salvation: Leah, Sarah, Marilou, Christina, Mrs. Loyola, Catherina
Bona, Marilyn
6. Spiritual growth/Church attendance: Angelita Hipolito, Marilyn Dayao
7. Ruth Potter: wisdom as she teaches in my place at BJMBC.
8. Homeschool teacher for missionary kids
