My Happy Birthday

Feb 1 (my birthday) fell on Sunday. I am very blessed to have such great friends and family. The church put together a video of people from the community sending their birthday wishes. I was touched.

Today I also baptized 5 more Filipinos, one of whom was an 84 year old man we'd been sharing Christ with for several years. It is so exciting to know that these people's lives and eternal destinies are forever changed.

After that, we went out to the villages for our weekly missions where we minister to the poor, dirty, abused, and neglected children. We currently have 51 missionaries from our church reaching people in 7 different villages. Next Sunday, we open up yet another new mission satellite; and God just keeps expanding our territory and impact in the province.

Bambi and I are full of hope and dreams for this year. We thank God for so much opportunity, an open-Heaven, and the privilege to serve. Thank you also, for the much-needed prayer and support. May God bless you richly.
