Dear Friends,

We have returned from our two week trip to the Philippines. We had a safe and fruitful trip. My, how God blessed. We saw over 700 people come to Christ. Below is a letter from one of the three pastors’ we worked with while in the Philippines.

Dear Bro. Jimmie and Sis. Faye,

A blessed day to you, it’s been a wonderful blessing and experienced when you visited our work here in Dasmarinas, Cavite.  We are all very excited then waiting for the day to come; it’s our first time to have a visitor like you who are doing missionary work as clowns for Christ.  Indeed God has many ways on how to reach each people especially the children.  It’s been the ministry of the church at first to teach and bring children for Christ.  We have started a few extension classes on our nearby barangay, now we have 10areas in which lots of children are coming to attend every Saturday in the afternoon.  Our love for the children has never changed, and I myself the church are overwhelmed that day, for we have almost 500 children that came that day.  How God provides for our needs to feed them afterwards, and the many things you brought them that adds to their joy especially teaching them about Christ and the way of Salvation, through the Gospel necklace.  The children enjoy very much, the lollipops and your sweet smiles for them.  We pray that we can have you again next year, my wife already looked on your website, she was very glad to view it especially your ministry for the school and the music department, your new church building and the picture of your pastor too.  Please do extend our thanks to Temple Baptist Church for having a ministry like this and for letting you go for a missionary trip in the Philippines.  We thank you and we pray that we can be a part of your ministry too.  To the whole members of Clowns for Christ, Ptr.Surbaugh, Jr., we thank you very much for considering the Philippines as one of your place to go.  To God all the Glory and praise.  Glad to hear from you soon. 

In Christ,

Ptr.Vergil C. Ojao

 

Here is a picture of the meeting in Dasmarinas, Cavite, Philippines.

Just think how God used your prayers and gifts to make this trip possible.

We went because we felt God was sending us. We did not raise all of the money we needed to make the trip. We are still $2,000.00 in debt for the trip. Could you help us? We need to raise this as soon as possible. If you can, please use the enclosed envelope and make your check out to Temple Baptist Church. All donations are tax deductible.

Thanks for your prayers as we continue our ministry here and abroad.

 

In His service,
Jimbo and Skiddles
