November 2007

Dear Fellow Saints,

ALL ABOUT US: "Teachers Camp 07" was a great success! Our team had the opportunity to minister to 7,525 public school teachers. 1,708 received Christ as their Savior! How awesome is our Lord! Following this a team from Seattle did outreach dental work in our church & in the neighboring communities. To top it all off, with the Bible College booming and our local church growing we have been busy bees.

KEEP PRAYING: 1. For Tammy, who sprained her ankle 10 days ago; it is hard to keep a good woman down. 2. For Antioch as we continue to seek and train new leaders. 3. Our children to finish strong in their studies as they draw close to the end of the semester. 4. Our longing to be with family and friends as the holiday season approaches. 5. Our team as we labor for the Lord & follow up on camp, and the dental clinic outreach. 

EXCITING EVENTS:  It's like a modern day Jericho! Francisco Felix High School, the largest high school in our area has finally, after almost two years of pursuit and prayer, allowed us in to minister on campus. As a result of the teacher's camp, next spring we will be allowed to recruit their students for our evangelistic camps. Can you hear those walls a crashing down? Your prayers are like a trumpet blast!

REST OF OUR NEEDS:  Cash flow is our problem. Ministry opportunities are great in the Philippines, but the dollar exchange rate has fallen hard against the peso and we have now lost 24 % of our monthly support while increasing our obligations by church planting and hiring staff. We need a short term financial boost, can you help us?

SING PRAISE TO GOD:  How can we ever praise Him enough for allowing us to be His ambassadors here in the Philippines! Praise for you, for our families and our friends. For the bold access we have in prayer! Lastly for our needs, so that we never forget how much we truly depend on our Lord and how faithful He is to provide.  

Pagpalain ka ng Diyos

Love Roger and Tammy

                                             We praise the Lord for your partnership!              
Now thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.  2 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV)
