June 2006 Report

I make of a litle bit asjustment for this month because most of my singers are now studying in college.Some of them went to other university that is far from here. However,I am now on the process of recruiting young people who have the talent in singing.

One of the stragies we make now, is recruiting students from different schools here. We are right now on the process of completing the requirements for campus ministry. What we aim now is potential young students in our church.

If you want to know more about our work here in Mactan church, you could open our blog at http://mactancoc.blogspot.com/. You could see the system of the church here. My mentor Bro. Aldous Echegoyen has been offering a free seminar aboutBiblical financial study to the companies and schools. In fact, most of our prospects and were baptized are working from that companies. And another goodnews is that, the university of Cebu has accepted our offer to conduct a financial study probably next month.

My two partners are focusing on evangelism and organizing church activities and I'll take care of the quality of the worship services here.

We believe, that one of the reasons why visitors don't like to visit again is because they don't feel they belong and satistfied. That's what I am aiming for... I am also doing bible study for young proffesionals like teachers and others. If God wills, two teachers from a private school will be studied about the gospel next week and they would accept Jesus as thier savior and Lord.

What we do here is team working. So far, I am happy for our team work because it works well and fruitful. May you continue to pray for our work here for God's glory.....

On May 21, was the 21st anniversary of the church here. Praise God! it was succesfull because of the cooperation of the leaders, members and young people.

Weeks before the anniversary, we were so busy making plans or what to do during the anniversary.We visited and encourage the members to bring at least 5 visitors. I was also preparing the C-major praise team by having a singing practice for anniversary.

Since the C-major praise team is a music ministry for young people, i also formed a core singers for adults. I taught them to sing songs for the anniversary.

Praise God because we were about 500 attendance during anniversary. Most of our visitors are the visitors of the members here. And now,we are so busy doing the follow up visitation for bible study. And 5 of our visitors have desided to be baptized this coming sunday.

We are hopefully planning to start a campus ministry in one of the universities here this first semester. We are still completing the requirements for campus ministry.

I am still focusing on organizing worship services and making it be more alive,uplifting and inspiring. I study everything about worship for God's glory through reading books and using internet at the same time to develope myself. I am now in love serving God.. Please continue to pray for my work and health....God Bless!!

April 2006 Report

I would like to share with you about my work in Mactan church this month.

On April18- 22, the church here has conducted a VBS in our community here. Fortunately, we had enrolled almost200 children here with the help of God. I was one of the teachers, some are young people and some teachers of nursery school here.

The event was so tiring because it was the first time we handled unexpected number of children. However, the activity was successful and fruitful.

During the graduation day, the C-major praise team offered a couple of songs to the parents and children. We entertained them before the program started. They were blessed by the songs.

The VBS was really successful with God's help. Right now, we are so busy making follow up to the parents to conduct bible study.

I am still preaching on Sundays in the cebuano service and often times in the evening service. I am still in charge in worship services to make sure that it is organized. I am still the worship leader and right now teaching songs to the choir and training future songleaders.

I Am doing a visitation every day and bible study with the members and prospects.

With God's grace the church is getting bigger in numbers because almost every member is bringing visitors every Sunday, and we are not having a hard time finding prospects because we have challenged the members to bring visitors every Sunday and in any activities. We are so glad because gradually they understand and do their purpose now.

I am also proud to share with you that I was given a new responsibility or challenge. I am now developing program about the growth and evangelism for the youth.

Regarding the C-major praise team they are still on fire, inspired and active. I am still teaching them songs for wedding, funeral, birthday and songs for any occasions.

I am still preaching on Sundays in the Cebuano service twice a month and leading song for worship twice a month. I am also training two future song leaders here.

In worship service, I have also leaders. I called them"Worship Team Leaders ". In the C-major praise Team, I have also leaders for Alto, soprano, Tenor, bass and melody.

In the youth ministry, I have a core group to do the plan or program I make.

I hope and pray that God will bless my work andplans for this year for God's glory......
