New work in the Philippines
The sun sets over Coron on the Island of Palawan
Marty and I flew to the Philippines in January. After several days in Manila, we jumped on a small plane and embarked on the journey to the island of Palawan to the tiny airport in Coron. This island is spectacular in its vistas and stunning rock formations made by lava from volcanic eruptions. The purpose of this trip was to catch a vision for a partnership there. We had been having conversations with a vibrant young church called Northgate whom we felt that we could work with. In three years, this assembly has grown from a few people to around 400-mostly youth! So, in May 2026, we will be partnering with members of our church (Calvary Chapel Dayspring Church) who want to go on a mission trip. Northgate will be conducting a Family Camp on their property and we Americans will assist with anything they might need, such as friendship, encouragement, Games, Art projects, testimonies-basically anything that might help in this ministry. So if you feel compelled, message me and I will plug you into our planning meetings. Enjoy the photos of majestic Philippines…
