Do it again Lord, Do it again!
My wife started to say that after the 1st crusade and it became what we said every morning before we left for the crusades! Do it again, Lord! Do it again!! And God did!!
Thank you Jesus!!!
We are so grateful and blessed that God used us to touch His children!
It was amazing to see so many mothers bring their 1 & 2 week old babies to the crusade!
Over 415 people gave their heart to the Lord! Praise God!
With your help partners, we were able to feed over 765 families!!
We know we gave a blow to the devil, because 2 days before we left I got very sick (dehydration and fever) and had to get IVs and had a nurse to say with us in the hotel.
Thank God the blood work came back negative 12 hours before our flight so I could leave the Philippines! Thank you Jesus!
Once we got home, Rizalina got sick. We are both fine now.
Thank you all for your prayers. Jesus is in Charge! Hallelujah! Glory to God!
Total Salvations: 415+ people
Total Families Feed: 765+
Our God is the God who Heals! He is the same yesterday, today, and forever!
Thank you to all who partner and prayed for us!
You have a great reward from God!
We love you all!

Dear Partners and friends in Christ Jesus, Mabuhay from the Philippines!! Praise the Lord!! We had a good, safe, but long flight. Did not sleep much, but God gives us energy! TSA Worker On the plane Metro Manila Flood Victims We are looking at bring bottle water to the flood victims on Tues Oct 20th to a large evacuation center. The country is really feeling the effects one of the worse natural disaster in Philippine history. We met with some pastors we worked with a few years back and the water had never gotten into thier house before. With this typhoon, it not only reached into the house and was about knee high, on the street it was up to thier neck. An area up north, iLocus Sur, a place we went to in 2004 has gotten hit hard by typhoon. Keep us in you prayers we will be leaving Metro Manila for Eastern Samar Outreach Crusades. |

Dear Partners and friends in Christ Jesus, Mabuhay from the Philippines!! Praise the Lord!! Again Thank you all for giving! You are a blessing! Trip to Borongan Long trip from Manila to Borongan! After short plane ride to very small airfield, we road in van for 6hrs. At first it was like being in car with Mario Andretti. Driver was going 120kph in a 40kph. The roads got really bad and he slowed down. Then for rest of trip we got free back massage via all the bumps in the road! Gotta look on the bright side! Welcome service Wow God showed up in a major way in our welcome service. It was for the pastors we will be working with in our crusades here in Eastern Samar. We were so tired from our trip, but God is so faithful!! He not only energized us, but refreshed us in a major way! Thank you Holy Spirit! The service was so amazing. The Holy Spirit came in and refreshed the pastors! You are so good to your children, Jesus! God resurrected a lot of the dreams and visions the pastors had lost. I had never sang in the spirit from the pulpit before, but Holy Spirit had me do this and instruct the pastors to do the same. Then light a might wind His refreshing came in and covered all of us. Pastors were weeping and falling on their faces before the presence of God. You could just feel the Holy Spirit wrapping His Loving arms around them. What a privilege to witness! Metro Manila Flood Victims An update on Manila Flood Victims: We are trying to get together with Philippine Red Cross. The areas affected by the floods have a lot of malaria and disease breaking out due to standing water. One of our Manila team members is trying to coordinate with local red cross and churches. We are looking for bakery to get bread along with bottle water to victims. We still need more resources to do this, but know God will provide. A lot of the ares are not reachable via roads being washed out. Keep us in prayer that we can get into area and bring God’s Love to them. Once we know more I will let you know. Keep us in you prayers for Eastern Samar Outreach Crusades. |

Dear Partners and friends in Christ Jesus, Mabuhay from the Philippines!! Praise the Lord!! Again Thank you all, for your financial support! You make it possible! We have already seen God healed so many people and we want to give God all the Glory! Without Him we cannot do this. It is thru the power of the name of Jesus Christ that people are healed and set free! In Eastern Samar, we are working with Pastor Robert Guarino and his wife Sister Helen. They are humble pastors who have a heart for the people of Eastern Samar. Borogan Crusade God is so good! I love to play around with the children before the service starts. Making them laugh and have a lot of fun. They liked it so much that after the service they all came up to me and I got a group hug!! During the service God healed so many people. It started out with a man who had a nerve problem all over his body. He could not stand or walk without help. After we prayed over him, the power of God hit him. I had him bend down twice, walk with him holding on, then had him walk without me. He walked and ran. It was so amazing everyone in the crowd started to clap and shout for joy. They knew who he was and what condition he was in and what God had just done to him! Praise God! Back problems, headache, stomach problems, and heart issues, were all healed by the mighty name of Jesus! When we were passing out the rice we did not have enough for everyone. But we have a BIG God! God multiplied the rice! Instead of handing out 100 2k bags, we were able to hand out over 150 2kg of rice! At the end of the service, after handing out the rice, Sister Helen, Pastor Robert’s wife, brought in used clothes to give to the people. When they told the people to come forward to get the clothes, they all ran forward and when thru the clothes so fast! What a mighty God we serve! Salvations: 36 Fed: 150 families Omawas Crusade The place were the service was held at was a church in the middle of a lot of nipa huts and coconut trees. After leaving main road and drive to a certain point, we had to walk to the church thru all the huts and trees. It was so cool…. Oh how God loves to touch His children! Again I love to play with the children before the service. In this place there were a lot of children over 75 of them! During the message I had the children come up to the front area (this helps to keep them quite) and I started out just talking to them. We had so much fun! The laughter of the children could be hear all over the area! I could sense that God himself was laughing with the children! During the service, God healed so many people. It started with a small 6 year old girl who would not response to me nor Pastor Robert when asked what she wanted prayer for. The mother then told us that she was deaf in both ears. I prayed over her and God opened up her ears! Thank you Jesus! She spoke what Pastor Robert told her to say from both ears. He whispered it and told her to say it out loud. The looks on the people faces who were in line waiting to get prayed for with tears in their eyes when they saw what God did for this 6 year old was amazing. You could see faith build up in them! To God goes all the glory! A older man was deaf in his right ear, but not for long! God healed him and the smile on his face was priceless! Another man could not see out of his right eye. I laid hands on him and could feel the power of God going into his eye. After removing my hands he could see and read the banners in front of the church! He started to cry a little! Praise God! God healed deaf ears, blind eyes, headache, arthritis, backache, fever, stomach problems, and heart issues! What a mighty God we serve! After the service, Pastor Juliet and Pastor Roman served ginataan (coconut, sweet potato and banana porridge) to the children! They loved it! Yummy! They then served us pancit(chow main) and puto (rice cake)! I eat a lot of puto!! Pastor Roman can cook!!! After we finished and were walking back to the car, it was so dark we had to walk back using flash lights. Lileth’s sister, a city girl, was so scared she was holding on to Lileth hands. Salvations: 200 Fed: 150 families Metro Manila Flood Victims An update on Manila Flood Victims: We will be going to Ultra evacuation center in Pasig for flood victiums on Tues Oct 20th.

Dear Partners and friends in Christ Jesus, Mabuhay from the Philippines!! Praise the Lord!! We thank God daily for you! Maydolong Crusade As we traveled to Maydolong, I was praying that God have His way always. So many times we want things to happen a certain way, but its God’s way that is most important! After getting off the main road and going thru several back roads and stopping to ask for directions, we made it. The place for our crusade was a barangay hall that was still in the process of being finished. It had a big basketball court on one side, the ocean on another side. Still without electric, someone was stringing light sockets on a 2×4 on each of the two windows and put light in each one. Talk about still in middle of building! People were packed into this small building like sardines. God moved so much. We saw people healed in major ways. The first person in the line for prayer, was an old lady who could not hear. After we prayed for her, God opened her ears. Praise the Lord! People started to clap and talk about what God had just done! Another older lady had pain with her back and legs. After praying for her, the Lord told me dance with her and then ask her if she felt better. She did! The pain was gone! Thank you Jesus! A older man came forward due to his left eye could not see and right arm and hand was paralyzed. After we prayed for him God open his eye and he could see and he had full use of his right arm and hands! Glory to God!! God then took the rice and added 25 2k bags to the 100 we had and everyone, including the children went home with rice! Oh how God loves His Children!! After service, the people fed us with fresh coconut juice and crackers! It was masarap (delicious)! Salvations: 32 Fed: 125 families Balangkayan Crusade We left earlier for this crusade due to the distance from our hotel. As we were driving you could see nipa huts and coconut trees everywhere. Eastern Samar has coconut trees all over! Coconut and fishing are the main industries here. We go off main road and then to another road, then to another, then turned around, then we found the church! The church was a simple building with a grass roof. It was surprisingly cool in the church considering the heat outside. You could look up and see thru the grass roof into the sky in some parts of the roof. I had a lot of fun picking people out of the crowd to use in my sermon! At one point I was telling the people that God will lift you up if you go to him and I had picked two small girls and an old lady from the crowd. I picket up the girls one by one while I told them that God will lift you up, just come to him as a little child. Then I acted like I was picking up the old lady. People started to laugh and have fun! The first person to come forward was an older lady who had a problem with her ears. After praying for her, God opened up her ears. She could hear me snapping my fingers and whispering in her ears to say Jesus! God you are so Good! An middle aged lady came up and had pain in head, eyes, ears, and noise. She needed healing from the neck up! And God delivered it! After we prayed for her, she had no more pain anywhere! Praise God! God again added to the rice. He added 32 2k bags to the rice we were handing out. Thank you God!!
