We had a wonderful time on the plane just counting up to 25 things we were thankful for regarding our trip to Philippines. We easily rattled off 25 things and went beyond that...
Most of the things we mentioned were family and friends who gave us quality time, and special memories. Tammy was overwhelmed by the sincere hospitality and care. So many things to be thankful for. We have a vision of what we want to do with my parents land now, possibly subdividing and giving a portion to a christian baptist school in cavite. We met people within the family that are professionals that can help with whatever direction we go on it.
I'm thankful for the times spent in WW2 areas that were meaningful and significant, especially because my dad was involved in those areas. Subic Bay, Corregidor, Bataan.
I'm thankful for making new contacts within the mission field and church, and having a chance to partner up with New Covenant Church to do evangelism, show Christian movies in the town square, preach in public, and also within the church a couple times.
We also were able to spend a lot of quality time with my cousins and uncles/aunts who were still mourning the loss of my dear cousin Mellie. It was a time we could openly speak about what the Word of God says about eternity. A lot of family time, but what was happening was home cell/ church planting in that this is discipleship. Questions, Answers, prayers, and praise, testimony. This is what church is.
I also am thankful for a clearer idea of what is possible in the future for us in ministry and professionally as well. Please pray for the Lord to open doors for us in the next months as we prayerfully consider the next steps.
here's some pics from our trip to the fishpond in Pampanga. God bless you for praying for us : )
