Seventeen Churches!!


We were going to tell you about our whirlwind trip that took place about
3 weeks ago......but then we had to stop and think,
“Can you call a trip whirlwind, when we traveled over
300 kms but only went
an average of about 28 km/hour?”

Well, that’s a question, but whether it was whirlwind
or not, we covered 325 km in 3 days,
and visited the churches at Pigtaw, Limondà, Cauyunan,
Tumpagon, Ginitan, Kulawingon and San Aquino!!


We shared from the Word!!!!


We praised God in song!!!


We discussed needs and developments with our brothers and sisters!
 

And caught up with friends we hadn’t seen in years!!!


In the end, we only got to visit 7 out of the 17 churches that the Lord has
built up to this date through our 24 year missionary journey
which started Nov. 27, 1987......so we have another
10 churches to visit on another ‘whirlwind but slow’
trip which will have to take place another time!

                The highlight overall, visiting all those places,
was to see first-hand, how God continues to grow His church in all these
different places – some we haven’t been to in years - and to marvel at
how God’s continuing work in people’s lives is beautiful and awesome!!

And even though these out of the way, hard to reach,
only travelable at 28km/hr trails have given us many hardships and difficulties over the years.........it is just totally worth it!!
