We organize Birthcertificates,Idendification papers for the children,
feed them with our weekly feeding program,do healthcare,
handing out Vitamins,Bibles.

This Time we had an openair Evangelim Crusade.
We started with worship















































The people are listening to the word of the Living God

























There were also many Children watching this ministry















This little boy just came from collecting scrap from the Garbage Area,he stopped and listened to our program.

Many children in this area are not
going to school ,they are sent into the garbage Area to collect the garbage and scrap to a junk shop which sells it ,they are ´´slaves´´ child labours´´.It is always our main focus through Christ to get those kids out of poverty and give them a future ,get their papers,register them and put them in a school.

Pastora Ruth is sharing the good news from her heart
































Pastor Guardy also sharing the good news of salvation
















The young people of the church showed us a story about Christ

































I also was blessed to share the word of the Living GOD
































After that we had
thanksgiving and worship for the Goodness
and Grace of our heavenly Father
















After the sharing the word of our Lord Jesus and thanksgiving,
we hand out vitamins to the mothers

















In our ministry we also try to educate and exsplain to the people how
to use the vitamins,we do dehydration awareness,we teach about hygene give some advices about daily issues
















This is Inday a girl from our feeding program


Her mom passed away 2 years ago due to TB Tubercolosis.My belated friend and Pastor Wilbert and I were able to lead her to the LORD GOD as her Saviour,before she passed away.

She left Inday and 7 more children and her Husband.
Please pray for this Family especially the kids but also the Husband never got over the death
of his wife,he has an alcohol problem,we trust Christ for his deliverance.

Mindanao Mission Philippines Oct/Nov 2010
Evangelism and Mercy Ministry to some remote Places on Dinagat Island
and Caraga

On this Trip a quite adventures one, we trusted Christ for every step ,we did´t know anyone,we haven´t been there before,i just knew that is the place God our FATHER IN HEAVEN wants us to bring his Love and compassion to the people and children
After an 8 hour busride through Mindanao we had to take a ferry for another hour .
This is a video from our Ferry trip to a more remote Island on
Mindanao (Dinagat )the place of our Evangelism and Medical Mission


This is inside our ferry

This is our ferry boat ride to the island
This was our Luggage for our Mercy Ministry evangelism trip some remote Island and Places on Mindanao

Our bags are full with medicine ,Bibles and our belongings and a Guitar





















Our first Stop San Jose Town on Dinagat .
SAN JOSE

A cute place,beautiful scenery,nice beaches.

What we did´t know when we arrived,some local People told us,true or not, that they estimate that about 60 %of the population of this Island has high power firearms ,since two different clans are fighting each other and a civil war could break out.
Also they told us that voodoo is constantly praticed on the Island,prostitution,the spirit of Lust we sensed it immitiatly when we arrived,we sensed a spir
it of fear as well ,spiritually spoken we arrived in a dark place.


Not enough the danger in the place where we stayed closed to teh sea somebody told us that they had a seasnake problem( the world`S most venomous deadly Snakes) as well ,as they would come out of the water by night in one place,`their dog who tried to attack the snakes died in one minute after he got bitten.

But like always when M
issionary`S go out like us we trust Christ,the Mighty Angels of the Almigthy God to protect us.

Our first ministry was in this house in San Jose the small capital Town on dinagat Island,


We ministered to this family ,there grandfather was sick and they all needed prayers and encouragement,we share the Love of Christ with them and prayed for healing of man






We prayed for this man who was weak the time we were there,we prayed and left the Holy scriptures with them to draw strength through Christ in his word

















After that ministry we walk around the city with our guitar , bibles and medicine as we followed the Man who has told to come to his house

When we arrived in the house we found out that just a few hours earlier this baby was born ,so i measured the temperature and check the health and prayed for the baby ,her mother and father and the rest of the family ,we gave them a Bible ,too.

But as we found out this was not the reason for the man calling us to follow him he needs help
This baby was born in that house hours before we arrived
















In the same room just agross from this newborn baby we found the grandmother lying in bed with both feet terrible infected and smelly,she could not walk for 2 days already ,so I began cleaning and treating the wounds

















After I treated her wounds I trained the family members how to continue to clean the wounds ,I left medicine there for the treatment, after that we prayed for her healing and that she can walk again






















Not far in this place a Basketball court in San Jose the capital town of Dinagat I shared a Biblestory with the kids,and one boy commited his life to Christ,he stepped forward and prayed with us the sinners prayer ,hallelujah


















The children had an open ear to our Biblestory ,one boy got saved

















Aside from medicine we brought a lot of Bibles, the Living word of God Almigthy,to being destributed on this remote island





















Pastor Guardy is preparing the bibles for our next Ministry ,about 2 hours bumpy ride ,3 of us on a Motorcycle, Habal Habal ,
the transport on the Island


















This was our transportation on the Island ,called Habal Habal ,three of us spent 4 hours on a dirty bumpy road on this Motorcycle the driver,the pastor sitting in the back and me in the middle ,the bags with the medicine were placed in front of the driver and pastor Guardy held the Guitar
Since I was the biggest Guy in the middle we had no space for the medicine bag that´s why we place it in front of the driver

This is our Transportation ,we were three Guys and the Bibles,Medicine,Guitar







The Habal Habal as the motorcyle is called is the main transportation on this Island




























After 2 hours one way and a soar bud we arrived in a small coastal village


We started our ministry with worship and sharing the good news of Salvation and healing.Pastor Guardy my Ministry Partner is on the Guitar




Many of the women and children needed physical help as well as spirtual help ,we passed on the Love Christ our Lord has for his people and children



















many mother`S came




The women came with there sick children ,we gave vitamins,the mother in the picture down received also vitamins as obviously her child was malnourished,we also prayed for her baby and her















her baby really looked sick
we told her Christ Jesus cares for them

and will help her Baby to grow and will provide for them























this woman received eyeclasses which were donated from Germany

















On the way back from the village it was another 2 hours ride, three of us on the Habal Habal Motorcycle , suddenly within a short time we had 2 flat tires
( it seems like I was to heavy though)so the Pastor and I had to walk,hallelujah

We gave thanks to the Almighty Father for protecting us all the way,no accident,no Injury´s ,praise GOD Almighty

the pastor is in a good mood while walking

( we had a flat tire two times)














we have to walk







we have to walk

so am I, I really enjoyed it. Good for my health















After we came back from the remote island ministry we traveled some dangerous dusty road through the cromite Mining fields in Mindanao on the way to Tandag city.We were blessed with the weather ,so we were able to pass the so called RED mountain´s .As you can see i was quite a trip ,steep on one side and dusty as well.We are grateful to our Father in heaven who protected us all the way in all our travel

This is the video which shows our bus ride through the Red Mountains,
a tough ride though





the Red Mountains Cromite Mining fields on Mindanao,a tough Bus ride


















Then after this long Bus ride we reached our last place of our Mercy Ministry Tandag City on `´Mainland Mindanao´´

The next day we ministered in a squatter area in the City of Tandag




















Pastor Guardy my local mission partner and travel companion exsplains to the crowd why we are here that we come to bring physical and spiritual healing through Christ our Lord


















Some children had fever we treated the sick and prayed for healing





















we had an open ear for their needs and we shared the good news of salvation with them















We told the people to put their Trust and Hope in Christ Jesus ,ask him to save them and some did and comitted their lives to Christ
We left these people into the followup of the Local Evangelical Church their and than we left the area,hallelujah heavenly Father for this open door of Ministry
