We are in Dipolog City, Philippines, and as of Sunday morning we have completed our first two assignment--The Pastors and Leaders Conference "Making Kingdom Leaders and Disciples," as well as a Youth Revival Service. We arrived to a group of pastors and their families with a large banner, with hugs and flowers strung around our neck. What a greeting!
After a day of rest, we began our ministry in a rented facility where pastors and leaders traveled from the remote areas of Mindanao and other outer islands, some by boat, some by plane, and many on foot camping along the way. They came hungry and expecting. This is the first event of this kind they have ever had and we were humbled that God would choose us to be His vessel to speak into the lives of these men and women of God. The attached pictures will tell the story. Pastor Garcia preached the first three sessions on Friday and God moved in a mighty way. Friday night Jamal shared his testimony to a packed room of teenagers and college students. Pastor Garcia pressed through and God finally broke through and over 100 young people gave their hearts to the Lord. There was much dancing and singing after the meeting!!
Saturday morning Debbie preached a NOW Word and pastors and leaders were set free as the team laid hands on everyone in the room. Then in the afternoon Pastor Garcia preached on the anointing and prayed for everyone to increase in their anointing as they returned to their churches. It was a powerful time in the Lord and God did His work. He also prayed for the team, imparting an anointing for evangelism as we are all sent out to seperate churches this Sunday morning--pray for souls!!!
We will rest Sunday evening and then on Monday we will go into the jail and minister to 310 men and women prisoners. We visited the Riverside where we will be holding our outdoor crusade on Tuesday (see the pics outside with all the street children gathered around us). It brought us to tears and we were moved with compassion to meet their needs. We have purchased food to feed the children and the surrounding families, flip-flops, and basic items that we will bless them with after the crusade. We will stretch out a tarp, do puppet skits, face painting, make baloons (thanks to donations from Pastor Jim) and love on the kids. Then Pastor Garcia will bring a message and God will save souls!!!
We have already begun posting pictures. Check them out on our website. www.kingdombuildersdc.com.
We sense your prayers and know that God is answering. We will update you again soon. Love to all!
