September 2009

Dear Fellow Saints,

ALL ABOUT US: Lots of changes for our kids as we returned to the Philippines. Many old friends of our kids are gone, but by God’s grace He supplied new ones. Our son Samuel plays guitar in the Antioch praise band and is a leader on the worship team at Faith Academy. Tammy is teaching again at Faith, and I am involved with new church plants, Bible College, and with the Evangelistic camps. All of us busy with a purpose – sharing the Gospel to all who will hear!

KEEP PRAYING:  1.Teacher’s“Survivor” Camp, for public high school teachers and administrators runs October 1-30, 2. Tammy as she teaches 8th Grade Bible at Faith Academy this year. 3. That our children would continue to readjust to being back in the Philippines. 4. Baptist Bible College of Asia with 804 students this term! 5. For of son Jon and his new bride Nicole as they settle into married life in California.

EXCITING EVENTS:  1. On the heals of summer camp in the Philippines that took 79,965 youth to camp with 29,090 Saved and 6,357 Baptized to date; Camp Cambodia yielded 13,077 campers and 2,667 salvations, may it all be to the glory of God! 2. Antioch Baptist Church in Cainta acquired its own “fun” truck this month – used primarily for Kidz JAM ministry; we can reach 200+ children with the truth of the gospel weekly!

REST OF OUR NEEDS: 1. Your Email address updates and confirmations as we are now sending our letter out over the net. 2. Growth and soul winning in the 5 new NFD (Non Facility Dependant) church plants we are starting this year with missionary Greg Lyons in metro-Manila. 3. Sound system equipment for Antioch Baptist Church - $900.

SING PRAISE TO GOD:  For His abundant provision through you as we returned to the field and endured some hardships; thanks for supplying all our prayer and financial needs. Arriving in late May we came back to a disaster in our home as it was poorly cared for while we were on our furlough; many items were broken or gone. Your prayers and financial assistance ministered to us greatly in this difficult time allowing us to focus on ministry. Many thanks to you!    

Pagpalain ka ng Diyos
(God bless you)

Love Roger and Tammy
