Philippine Arrival

We arrived in Manilla safe and sound. Had a pretty good flight here. We’ve spent the week looking for a place to live. We looked at a place last night that seems promising. As part of the church service on Sunday, Pastor Glen released us to Pastor Paul to help him here. Was a very emotional time for us. We are excited to do what God has planned for us in the Philippines. We took some time with Randy and Leah along with our friends who already live here, Jon and Alaina, and went down into an area where the poorest of the poor live. Was an eye opening experience. We saw the church that some friends back home, Byron and Lisa, financed. Also, spent time in Puerto Galera enjoying the beach and relaxed a bit. By tomorrow morning, all of our friends who escorted us here will have departed. Jay will be preaching this Sunday at Pastor Paul’s church. When we are moved into our home and have internet access on our computer, we will download some pictures for you to see. Right now, we are using someone else’s computer to communicate. Thank you again for all of your support and prayers. You are being used to further the Kingdom of God.
