Just wanted to tell y'all that we have safely made it to the Philippines (by God's grace), and we are having a spectacular time getting acquainted with not only the foreign landscape but also with the amazing people over here.
We spent many hours in transit--from Las Vegas to Vancouver to Manilla to Dumaguete--but we managed to get through it somehow :)
After journeying through a number of timezones and traveling for almost a day straight, we made it to Calvary Chapel Training Center just in time for breakfast! Soon after that, we were blessed to see a "Culture Show" performed by some of the students here at CCTC. Through this intriguing presentation, we learned about various Filippino customs, dances, and games--it was very exciting! However, the cultural experience didn't end there...we still had a lot to learn about Filippino food!
Anyways, right now we are practicing our skits and worship songs--ready to minister when the Lord presents us with the opportunity!
2 Timothy 4:2 (New King James Version)
2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
