Day 3 & 4: Amlan and Sunday Services

To everyone back home, we want to say, "Happy Father's Day!"


Sorry for the delay in getting this post up, but we've been going through a "brown-out" (or black-out)...so there was not wireless internet. Thanks for understanding!


DAY 3: A Day in Amlan

A couple of days ago, we embarked on a journey to a nearby village called Amlan (located next to the ocean). We met with EJ and Rosanna Johns and ministered with their children's program. After that we evangelized (with translators) throughout the town and told the people we talked to about an outreach for the community later on that evening. At this event, our team was able to once again lead worship and perform our skit. Praise the Lord!



Team Member Testimony: McKenna

"When I first came here, I was expecting the cliché experience. But the Lord had something bigger planned for this trip. After seeing the conditions these people are living in, my perspective on what I am personally going through was altered dramatically. These people have close to nothing and yet they still are completely in love with the Lord and crave His presence in every aspect of their life. They refreshed my passion for the Lord and subliminally began to encourage me to persevere."


DAY 4: Church Service in the Philippines

Today we split the team into two groups and went to minister at separate churches: One went to Ticala (See "Day 2"), and the other went to the Calvary Chapel in Scandinavian Children's Mission (in Dumaguete). Later we returned to the Calvary Chapel to lead sunday school.



(...we are going to try to put more pictures up soon!)

God bless!

  1. So wonderful to see the Lord doing a GOOD WORK in the lives of our kids! Knowing that the Lords got it all covered - still want to THANK Zack and Pastor Mike - THANK YOU for getting our kids across the globe safely and without dilemna. Your tireless efforts in preparing the students for this trip for the months prior have not gone unnoticed and are immeasurably treasured by us who saw the growth in them BEFORE they even left the states. God keep the leaders safe and healthy - thank you for all your are doing in the name of the Lord and for HIS GLORY! - Annabelle
