Pastor Bong's outreach

We had a great outreach last night at Ptr. Bong's church. People from all over the community came.
The Ladies made sopas (creamy chicken noodle soup) for everyone.
The band and the tambourine dancers were great. The Trinity Dancers
from EFC also performed. They were amazing and drew in a huge crowd.
After the music and dancing, Ptr. Bong showed a Billy Graham film that had been translated into Tagalog. When the film was finished, it was my turn to preach the Gospel. About half-way through, a fight broke out on the hill and distracted everyone. There was a drunk guy that was trying to disrupt the meeting. Some of the locals (not church members) jumped him and started beating on him. At that time no one was paying attention to me so I stopped speaking and with the authority given to me from God through the sacrifice of Jesus, I told the disruptive spirits to leave and called in peace. The fighting stopped and people came back. When the invitation was given to receive Jesus, a lot of people came up, including one of the church members' husband and her son, the local gang leader. The whole family was in tears as Jesus did an amazing work in their hearts. We then had a time of worship and people came up for healing. It's always fun to see God move and heal people. There was a little boy that was burning up with a fever and as I was praying for him I could feel his temperature drop. God is so good! What an amazing night. Ptr. Bong was very excited that his first outreach was so successful.

Sunday morning at EFC

Jay preaching at our church on Sunday. He taught on, "Applying God's
Grace in Your Life". Of course, I think he did a great job, like always.

Praise Report

This is my buddy Joe. He got born-again last year and healed from Psoriasis. At the time he
was bed-ridden and broke but, God healed him and gave him an idea to make lamps out
of waste banana fiber. Today, he has more orders than he can keep up with. Praise God!
Jayson and Sherwin chillin.

Ptr. Tony invited me to speak at the Parent Teacher Fellowship. I talked to them about
speaking life into their children. Proverbs 18:21. I think we all need to understand
that our circumstances don't need to dictate our future but that we can speak
our future into existence through the creative power of our words. Mark 1:23,24
