A New Church is born.

Today in Calapan, Mindoro, The Philippines a new church was born.  At the Grand Opening Service there were 50 adults and 30 children present.  Other than the preaching the service was run completely by the new Christians.  Praise the Lord.

More details will be provided in coming days as the team, both Filipino and Aussie return to their homes and loved ones.  There has been a tremendous out-flowing of God's Holy Spirit through the willingness of all of the SOS team to speak and act in obedience to the Great Commission from Jesus to go into all the world to share the Gospel.


Matthew 28: 18-19  Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.   Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. (TNIV)


Right now the Aussies are on a boat as they make the return trip to Manila.  As they return home over the next couple of days please pray for their safety as they travel, and also pray that the miracles seen and lessons that they have learnt during the SOS 2010 will remain fresh in their memories as they continue to share the good news of God's Love to those at home as well.

Please pray for protection over the new Church, its Pioneer Pastor and the young congregation.  They will face all sorts of difficulties and challenges (including persecution) in the days ahead, but with God's help they can and will overcome.
