I recently purchased a new computer to work on two books I am writing.
It was necessary since the publishers require a certain format which I
did not have. As a matter of fact, I am using it right now. God has
blessed us with an unexpected blessing out of nowhere so we could up-
grade. Continue to pray for us.
Our ministry is growing and who knew we would not remain a single campus
but three and another one on the way. Awesome. God has truly blessed
the ministry, and our Jewish roots are being taught too. Every Sunday, we
blow a shofar towards each direction to call people to worship; over our
offering we blow as we pray for it; and at the end of the service 6 short
and 1 long for completion of service. Bible studies are constantly going
on and the staff has risen to the occasion. Because of the size of the
sanctuary we have many groups coming in to use it, had several weddings,
and other special events.
Also while we are stateside, I have performed a wedding in September and
able to wed people in Oregon - man/woman as biblical. Possibly will help
with some finances here.
If you come to our Facebook page, you will see that I added an
area for the ministry as well. Even though we are out of the
Philippines and we have pastors watching the church, it certainly
would help so we can buy more bibles in Tagalog (would like
to purchase 75-100@$10-12 ea), and get some much needed work
, flooring (approx $3500), electrical, and repair
to damaged areas) still to be done on the church. We want to thank
Ms. Geri Grieb of DFW New Beginnings for her recent generous
contribution to the church. Also thanks to New Beginnings Livestream
Church (part of NB DFW), who sent 10 boxes of clothes, food, school
supplies and much more to give to the people and bless us also. Also
Kingdom Truth Ministries, under Pastor Julia Neufeld, who also made
contributions to the ministry so we could reach out even more.
Of course, if there is anyone out there with a few extra big
dollars, that would be great too. See information below.
We are praying that God will help us raise money for 26 families in the area.
We have the desire to provide rice, canned foods and also some items
(clothing and things). We estimated approximately $50 per family (families
range from 4 to 8 per). If you can help in any way, again contact me soonest.
We would like to have the money before the end of November to send so that
the items can be purchased for the holidays. Thank you and God bless you
those who give.
Until next time, Be blessed and remember if you can help in anyway,
email me at gak12190@juno.com or here pastorgary@nbolcc.com, and I
will give you details how to do just that. We can always use
finances and other things to get the church fully built (tiles,
doors, and office functional). Like everywhere, it takes
money to get things done and we are currently not receiving any
support. God is Good and he's still working with us.
