Philippines Mission 2018 - Day 2
Hello Church! This is Myron again reporting on the Philippines Mission trip. This was our first morning in Samar and the place looks beautiful!
Today was Sunday, so we dressed for church service.
The day began with group quiet time:
Devotional: 2 Chronicles 2:1-18
Memory verses:
Proverbs 16:3,9
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
We then ate delicious chicken porridge for breakfast.
We were split into six groups, each with a SICAP student guide, and sent off to attend six different churches in the nearby city of Calbayog. But before we left, Pastor Daniel and Ruth Kim gave us some helpful tips and a quick lesson on Waray, the indigenous language of this area.
Brother Sean’s team sang Malaya for their church!
Diulie’s team attended Christian Life Center.
Michelle’s team also had a rewarding time worshipping with another church.
Lastly, Will’s team went to New Life Calbayog.Their main praise team was away, so the youth stepped up and lead the congregation.
The rest of the day was spent on providing care for the community. We first took their vitals and triaged them.
Some wanted us to pray with them...
Some sought medical attention...
Some sought dental care...
Many received medicine...
All needed the grace of God. Nearly 100 people came because they were broken in some way, physically and spiritually. Please pray that God will place His healing hands on them. Please pray for them to seek a closer relationship with Jesus Christ.
I also want to thank the incredibly gifted SICAP student volunteers who helped translate and keep everything running smoothly.
The day was long and at times we felt vulnerable to spiritual attacks. But we have nothing to fear because God is with us and He has already plotted the course for us.
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.” -Proverbs 16:3, 9
3 너의 행사를 여호와께 맡기라 그리하면 네가 경영하는 것이 이루어지리라 9 사람이 마음으로 자기의 길을 계획할지라도 그의 걸음을 인도하시는 이는 여호와시니라 - 잠언 16:3, 9
We will be taking a four-hour boat ride tomorrow to continue our medical mission. Please pray for us to stay faithful, to stay united, and to stay focused.
Thank you all for your prayers and love.
Seung joo chan!
