Our partner Pastor Shem in Cotabato, Mindanao has a burning passion to help the tribal pastors reach out to their own tribes. Many of the tribal people in Mindanao uses audio bible which we help supply in order to hear the Word of God. In many cases, these audio bibles are brought to community centres, Jeepney stations and well stations, played loudly for everyone to hear. Our partner in Cagayan de Oro, Mindanao is Pastor Loloy Lapiz, he used to be a member of a notorious criminal gang called Koratong Baleleng, feared by many during its operations. It was turned into a film after its demise. Pastor Loloy had a dramatic conversion, an evangelist at heart, he speaks in radio stations to preach the Gospel and fearlessly reach out to its surrounding communities. Our partner in Bacolod, Pastor Jun has experienced a healing miracle of the Lord. He used to have a colon cancer and whilst on chemotherapy, he felt impressed by the Lord to stop it and give the money towards the building of the church at his house. At that time he testified how he lost his life in order to find it. Pastor Jun, leads a vibrant church of believers who are always ready to respond to the needs of its community. They help the street kids in Bacolod find hope in Christ and is active in Missions and evangelism. Our newest partner, Pastor Samson De Fiesta, is reaching out to the indigenous people in Cagayan Valley, ministering to mountain dwellers and reaching out to them in rain and floods! Many of these people are very poor and live on very little.
