Philippine Frontier Missions, Inc. is a non-profit religious organization established in 1993 by Filipino SDA pastors and laymen, working in cooperation with the Seventh-day Adventist Church to plant the Church among unreached people groups.

As a supporting ministry, we uphold the global mission and purpose of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. We are dependent upon God to move people to support this work.

In cooperation with the Southern Asia-Pacific Division of Seventh-day Adventist, the work of PFM is to establish indigenous SDA churches among people groups in the Philippines and Asia where the church does not presently exist and where social, cultural or economic barriers prevent neighboring SDA churches from establishing the church.

Send missionaries among unreached people groups with the view of establishing active SDA congregations.When a congregation is firmly established among a people group, PFM will turn over operational responsibility to the local mission or conference.Raise the level of mission awareness among SDAs.Provide an avenue for contributors to have a sense of involvement in the mission work they are supporting.Open up opportunities for more SDAs to engage in frontier mission service.

from theEditor What is the most tangible proof that God

works and is active on this earth? The answer lies in the stories of every individual who has come

under the banner of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. No matter what generation, no matter what

country or continent, no matter what color of the skin and what language, and no matter whether in the city or in far away mountains and jungles – God is revealing Himself to each one and establishing in their hearts His kingdom. I have often wondered where the next miracle of God lies or where His voice is next heard. I have waited many a times for wondrous results in this ministry and sometimes come away empty. Until I look closely at each individual near me and those who are in the field. I then noticed how God is not really far and silent. He is near, and He is working out His will to save mankind. Each story of change is the miracle that really matters. You will read of those miracle stories in the pages of this newsletter. May you be blessed!

In His Service,

Maila T. Dizon

“Dang, you have to do recruitment.” That was the message I received from Sir Abner when I was in my mission field in Bakun, Benguet. Confident that my Great Master is sending me to another adventure with Him, I packed my things and travelled back to the office.

My first destination was Mindanao. I went first to South Philippine Adventist College and then to Mountain View College and to several churches in the surrounding area. And then I went to Central Philippine Adventist College and Bacolod before leaving for Capiz and Aklan. It was my first time to travel by myself to faraway places. But God has proved to me that we just have to trust Him completely and He’ll provide everything. And I mean everything. He provided me with people who can help me, places to stay, church appointments, good contacts. Everything! God is just amazing! It was a good two months that I spent travelling, meeting people, scheduling appointments and looking for workers for the Lord’s vineyard.

I really praise the Lord because He used me to deliver His message to our brothers and sisters in far-away places. Most of them had no idea about Philippine Frontier Missions or unreached people groups. I could no longer count how many times I was asked if PFM is 1000MM. But in each instance I was always delighted to let them know that it’s a different ministry and explain to them what we do. I knew the Holy Spirit was working to reach their hearts. I remember the looks on their faces as they listen to the presentation. I am certain that God’s Spirit has worked in each of the churches and gatherings where I presented. Seeds were planted and I praise the Lord!

As the Lord’s messenger I was the first one to be blessed. As I deliver the same message and appeal every Sabbath I was more convicted of the need for workers in God’s most neglected field. And I, myself have been more sure of my calling. Imagine only 2% of all missionaries going to unreached people groups (2.84 billion people or 41.6% of the world’s population) while 98% are going to places where the people have already heard of the Gospel. And I said, “Yes, Lord. This is where I am needed.” My prayer is that our youth who have heard of this message would have the same realization.

A few young people have expressed an interest in becoming frontier missionaries. They have felt that God is calling them. But the enemy is doing everything in his power to stop them from going. And in most cases, it is their family members who discourage them. I saw also how many of our youth are not mindful of their great responsibility. Their God-given gifts, talents, strength and vigor are not channeled in the right direction. These young people could have been good witnesses for the gospel.

In my own experience, I became an Adventist when I was in college. My godly mother, who was an Adventist, was very happy and supportive when I decided to become a missionary. I appeal to you, dear parents to let your children go when God calls them. Remember that you don’t own them. Please do not become a hindrance to the advancement of the Gospel.

A Call For Missionaries

Learning To Trust:A Convert’s Experience

finally came, all she had to do was cut the umbilical cord and wash the newborn baby.

When Sabbath came, Sandy gratefully shared her experience. She was very thankful that God had answered her prayers. We’re also blessed & thankful to God that the converts here are now learning to pray, to call to Him & put their trust in Him. Psalm 34:4, “I sought the Lord & He heard me & delivered me from all my fears.”

Back to Bato!

We were on our way back to Cabatuan from Palis. Riding on our bagon (a cart pulled by a carabao) we saw an old woman walking alone. We were heading on the same direction so I offered her a ride. She said she’s going to Barangay Nacolcol, an hour and a half walk from Cabatuan. This was the first time we saw her. She was very cheerful. We talked about so many things as we drove along. She even opened up to us her personal life—her problems, her pains and heartaches. My heart went out to her as she told her story. I comforted her with the Word of God. I assured her that we can victoriously go through all kinds of

trials in life if we have Jesus in our hearts. At this she fell silent. She seemed to be pondering the things I’ve said. After a while, she asked us who we are and where we live. We told her that we are volunteer teachers in Barangay Palis. I also explained that we also help those who are sick and that we also teach the Word of God. Upon hearing our reply, the old woman became sad. “They’re very fortunate,” she said. “There are people like you who help them,” she continued. “There are so many children who cannot go to school in the place where I live. So many people get sick and many of them die without being taken to a hospital. There are also no pastors to teach us the Word of God.” And then she added, “I hope you will also come to us.”

Tears welled up in my eyes. I suddenly remembered the lyrics to that old PFM song “Hear the people calling, come and help us here! Daily they are dying and no one seems to care. Oh the field can wait no longer; it has waited far too long. God’s field needs your hand right now…”

The harvest is truly plenty but the laborers are few. Our brothers and sisters this is a challenge for us. Let us all wake up from our slumber and work hand in hand for the salvation of

those who have never heard of Jesus.

For our faith partners who continuously pray and cheerfully give their financial support for this ministry, I pray that you will continue to experience the blessings from our Father in heaven as you take part in this great ministry.

Sandy’s aunt is about to give birth. Her uncle requested her to attend to his wife while he calls for a “paltera” (local midwife). Sandy was also 6 moths pregnant.

She was very nervous and she did not know what to do. She estimated her uncle to be back in 2-4 hours since the paltera lives very far. There are only few people staying in the village. The rest are staying in their farms during summer.

Afraid to be alone with a woman in labor, Sandy tried hard to keep her body from shaking from panic. She tried her best to look calm for the sake of her auntie who couldn’t help scream and cry out in pain. Sandy comforted her. All the while she prayed that somebody would pass by to help them.

God seemed to answer her prayers when Sandy saw another uncle pass by. She called out to him for help but when he saw the situation he excused himself. He said he couldn’t help them. After a long while, her auntie’s legs started shaking. The baby is coming? Sandy stopped massaging her auntie’s back and looked in front. And indeed it was! The baby’s head was coming out. Sandy was wondering how she would manage to deliver the baby. Just in time she saw a mother and a child passing by. She called out to them for help. And indeed she was the help

sent from God for she knew how to help deliver babies. The baby was

successfully delivered and both mother and child were fine. Praise the Lord! When Sandy’s uncle and the paltera

One of our active VBS students is Peter, a 10-year old Aeta boy who looks small for his age. He enjoys learning songs and listening to Bible stories. He’s also fond of making VBS crafts. But sometimes he’s unable to attend our classes because his father needed him to help in making a living. At other times he is tasked by his parents to look for food.

In the middle of our VBS we found out that leaders of other denominations here are asking the parents why they

are allowing their children to attend our classes. We thought many kids would stop attending because of this but they continued on. And so day and night, we include them in our prayers.

When graduation came, one of the parents who was present was Peter’s mother. She seemed very happy to witness the program and when the time finally came for parents to speak, she stood up and said, “I am thankful that Pastor Melque is here to teach the children. Peter, my son used to be very lazy. He also used to bully his younger siblings. But when he started attending this program, he started to change. He’s no longer lazy and he is now good to his siblings.”

We praise the Lord! It’s a joyful thing to see lives change because of God’s Words.Faith partners, thank you for your prayers

and financial support. Many are being drawn closer to our Lord just like Peter and his mother. Let us continue to labor for the Master until He comes. Your support will help hasten the coming of the Lord. We will be in heaven together with the souls who were saved because of you. God bless!

Whew! God is teaching me to endure for the sake of the unreached. I was reminded that most of us are in our comfort zone and enjoying the truth we receive while souls are perishing.

I’ve got the chance to talk to some of our brothers and sisters there in Bato. I found out that some of the church members have grown cold in their faith. But I praise the Lord for the faithful ones who continue to strive to follow Him. God use these faithful

few to fight the evil influences that come into their village. Many of them were strengthened as we gave them advice and comfort from the Word of God.

I also thank the Lord because even the non-Adventists still remember our missionaries who have worked there. They told me that they are blessed because PFM missionaries ministered to them and introduced to them the Savior. The church members are half-wishing that the missionaries would always stay with them but they know that many souls are still waiting. They feel the burden for other tribes who are still in darkness. Their prayer is that they, too, will be reached by the Gospel that they may also find hope amidst

I was hesitant to go back to Dumagat project, ALONE. It’s quite a challenge to be in a place you are not familiar and comfortable with. Besides, I was not even sure where I would stay since the old missionary house is old and torn-down. And so I prayed to God for a companion. And He answered. He didn’t just give me one or two or three. He gave me 35 companions! They were the AUP Theology students who needed to conduct their Cross-Culture training.

Once again, I endured the long mountainous hike with my 35 companions.

“Good morning ma’am!” This is Roselyn’s standard greeting every time she sees me. She is the only child of our Church Elder here in Hingin 2. She’s only 6 years old but she is our most active song leader in the church. She loves Bible stories too!

Roselyn is a very curious child and she loves to watch her father work. One

time, while the church members were busy constructing the church’s comfort room, she went to the 2nd floor of a nearby house and took her seat by the window so she could have a good view of the men working.

I was also there. And when Roselyn saw me, she smiled at me. And then suddenly she lost her

balance and fell out the window. The next thing I heard was her voice screaming and crying.

She was obviously hurt and shocked. But to everyone’s surprise, she suffered no broken bones, not even a scratch. It was indeed a miracle of God’s protection.

The next day, her mother told me what Roselyn said. “Mother, I am thanking God today,” she said. “On Sabbath, I am going to give my testimony. I want to thank God because He saved me.” Her mother was confused because she didn’t know of

the accident. So she asked her child, “Why? What happened?” and Roselyn replied “Do you know mother that I fell down from the window? It was really high, but look, I have no broken bones, not even a scratch because I know that God had saved me.”

I was touched by Roselyn’s faith. She’s still very young yet she recognizes the presence and protection of our Heavenly Father. And she wants to share it with others.

God really loves the little children. Thank you faith partners for your support that even little ones are being drawn to Christ!

was always present during our nightly meetings. I later found out that he was just there to discourage the listeners. He was also present on our Sabbath meetings. During our potluck, my wife overheard him talking with the other attendees, “Don’t get baptized. Don’t join these Adventists. You can no longer eat pork if you join them,” he said.

Saddened and moved with pity for this poor soul, I immediately took the courage to approach him. And so while he was still eating I said, “Why are you doing that Manong (older brother)? Please don’t do that again. There’s nothing

wrong in listening to God’s Word.” He was just silent and didn’t say a word. He is one of the elders here in Guina-ang and it is just sad because many people listened to him.

Another case is about a Catechist and her followers. People here are actually afraid of them. They really try their best to keep the people from listening and accepting Bible Studies from us. A young person who regularly attends our Midweek and Vesper meetings told us, “We want to listen, my mother and I, but she is afraid of *Nona (the Catechist).”

They are like blind men leading the blind. The worst thing is, when others are beginning to see the light, they turn on the blinders so that others may not see. Please help us pray for the people here who are hungering for the truth. May they have the courage to follow God rather than men. Pray also for the Catholic leaders here that God will change their hearts and that they would be open to the voice of the Holy Spirit.

Many people were attending from the very first meeting up until the last night of our crusade here in Pasil. More than 30 persons also attended the following Sabbath. But Satan is very angry every time we do activities like crusade, seminar, baptism, and Bible studies. He’s using other people so that the truth would not be heard especially by the ones who want to follow.

One such case is an old man whom we thought was very interested since he

Alfred and Ann were previously “glassmates”. They are always present in every barangay/town’s occasion, drinking wine. They were both life of the party. It was during one of their drinking sessions that the Sabbath issue was brought out. Alfred told Ann that according to his

One early morning while we were busy fixing things for the day’s work, an old native man passed by in front of our house, seemed worried and was looking for something. We greeted him “Mayat ay Agsapa”, he stopped and responded with a smile. He asked us about his health. “I have cough for almost three weeks now. I am having chest pains and I am alarmed with my condition. I used many anti cough medicines but there is no improvement.” If you have medicines, would you please give me? I’ll pay for it.” Looking at him, I started my assessment. I hoped that I will be inspired with a correct treatment to give him. We prayed and introduced to him nature’s healing herbs and water. After the treatment, he thanked us for what we have done to him, I said ‘’ No, It’s our God who is the Healer.”

As the sunset was approaching, the old man knocked on our door. He had a bag of potatoes in his hands. As we let him in, we noticed his buoyant spirit. “Your medicines were very effective!” They helped me a lot, I am so excited and I can’t wait to visit you again!” I just smiled and whispered a prayer. Then, we taught him how we prepared the medicine we gave him. We offered him a prayer. “You are the angels sent from above!” he said.

The Lord has fullness of grace to bestow on every one who will receive the heavenly gift. The Holy Spirit will bring the God entrusted capabilities

into Christ’ service.

research and studies, Saturday is the Sabbath day not Sunday. Ann then told Alfred that her eldest sister recently became a Seventh-day Adventist and keeping Saturday as their day of worship. They both agreed that time that they will give it a try to attend and join the following Saturday.

That Saturday, Alfred, determined to give it a try, was already in front of our house, waiting for Ann. Ann, not serious about their agreement, was

still at home sleeping. Marijima, Ann’s sister, knew about their plan. She invited Alfred inside the church when she noticed him standing outside. Marijima then

texted Ann and informed her that Alfred is already in the church. About an hour later, Ann came.

It was the beginning. The two, since then attended Sabbath. Alfred admitted that he is really searching for truth. And he had asked several pastors of different religions for a Biblical proof of Sunday worship but their answers did not satisfy him. His questions were answered

that Saturday and he was convinced with the Biblical and historical proofs. Eight months later, the two were baptized. Glassmates now became churchmates.

life’s troubles. They earnestly hope, by the grace of God, to continue their outreach program to the Dumagat tribes on the other side of the Angat Dam.

Please continue to pray for our brethren here in Bato that they may hold on to the truth faithfully and be able to minister to the nearby tribes.

How about you? Are you not burdened by the thought of so many souls that have not yet been reached by the Gospel? The field is ripe for harvesting yet we lack workers. Whom shall the Lord send?

from page 5...

“And call upon me in the day of trouble, I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.” Ps. 50:15

I know that the enemy is doing his very best to destroy me because I am serving the Lord. I thank God because I already recovered from the sickness that Satan gave the last time. I nearly died but

God is greater in power. Satan tried another trick. It happened one Sabbath day. After our Divine

worship, I went inside my room and opened my locker. Little did I know that a huge, poisonous snake was there

beside my locker, ready to strike. The locals call it “agsawan” but

in tagalog it is known as “ulupong.” Terrified at the

sight of this uninvited guest, I shouted at the

top of my lungs and quickly jumped away. The church elder heard me shouting. He hurried inside my

room and found the snake. It took a while

before they were finally able to kill the snake.

I thought maybe Satan is angry because almost all the brethren attended that Sabbath. Whatever may be the reason, what matters is that God protected me. In Romans 8:31 it says, “If God is for us, who can be against us.” If we are on the side of God, we are safe. God has assured us so many times in the Bible that He will never leave us nor forsake us in times of trouble and even in the point of death.

Please continue to pray for us and for our ministry because missionaries’ lives are always at stake. Thank you brethren for your untiring support!

One Monday afternoon, after teaching Bible class at Balugan National High School, I went to Manang Siga to give her Chronological Bible study (CBS) and to grant her request to watch Bible movies on my laptop. We were in the middle of watching an animated story of David and

Goliath when Manong Tulingan, Manang Siga’s husband, came from their payew (field) and joined us.

Manong Tulingan is a well known Espiritista leader in Mt. Province. Thus, I was expecting that he’s knowledgeable about the Bible. But to my surprise he asked, “sino ay ipogaw di? Sino si Saul? (Who’s that person? Who’s Saul?)” I was glad to be used by God to introduce Bible characters and Bible stories to him. I am happy that Manong Tulingan, admitted that he lacks time to read the Bible, trusts me as God’s

servant to share His word. What made me happier

that day was when I was about to leave, He called me back and asked a favor. He requested us to teach his children – use stories from the Bible or any story that will help shape their young minds.

We are happy to share that we have finally won the confidence of some children their parents. This is a good start in introducing God into their lives. Let’s pray for the children that we are teaching and their parents as well. God bless!

After visiting the homes of the brethren, we dropped by a house on the road to have some rest. It was a tiring walk going up the hill. There was a store. Sis. Mary Ann bought something. She introduced me to the store owner. The store owner asked Sis. Mary Ann if there is another Vacation Bible School coming that summer. She replied that they were planning to. The store owner told how her children enjoyed the stories and songs. She was waiting for another VBS to come. She chose the Adventist VBS because she observed that her children

learned more about Jesus. “That’s good to know,” I said. “Then it means that the church should make VBS a regular program every summer.”

“One more thing,” the store owner told me. “I am thankful that you drop by. My elementary kid has an assignment in her Religion class. The teacher asked them to write the Ten Commandments. I don’t know where to find it in the Bible.” I smiled and

wondered why the teacher chose that. I asked for a Bible and showed to her. “How will the teacher teach the Ten Commandments when it shows about the ‘graven images and the seventh-day to be kept holy’?” I wondered. I simply prayed that God will speak to her through His Word.

I asked her daughter to copy the verses. While she wrote, I simply explained each commandment so that she could explain it to her class. I prayed that those verses will speak also to them. We prayed for the store owner and her daughter before we left.

Muslims believe that there are “jinns” or spirits living with us. They say that these are powerful spirits who live among us and are also waiting for judgment. But for them, these spirits are their friends who can give them power. And they call people with such power as “Balihan” or “Babaylan.”

One of our friends came to visit me one day. She mentioned how much they want their brother in Pangutaran, Jolo to come home but his mother-in-law wouldn’t let him. Many times he tried to leave but he just can’t for different reasons. So they asked their neighbor

to make a “hinang-hinang,” a kind of charm that makes a person uneasy if he doesn’t do what you want him to do. I asked who makes the charm and she told me it’s Rose, one of our students! She also told me that Rose has a jinn, a child who already passed away. The child’s spirit came back grown up already. She said that Rose can just ask the spirit if she wants to know something. This jinn can predict, heal, charm, etc. I also found out that most of the people here have Jinn. I discovered also that some of them are using their jinns’ power on us whether for good or for evil. I have not seen visible results against us but they did say that they used the powers of the jinns

to speed up our return from our vacations from the mainland. We need your continuous prayer for us to be protected and overcome the power

of darkness.

Kerker’s Strugglewith the Spirits

I looked for Sis. Inday to accompany me in visiting the brethren in Tungib. I found her busy working in her neighbor’s flower garden. She was weeding and cleaning the neighbor’s front yard. I helped her with it. She told me that her neighbor is a school teacher and has no time to clean her garden. Then her neighbor asked for her help. Though Sis. Inday has something to do in her farm, she cannot say no to her friend. I swept the dried leaves while we were chatting. She told me to just sit and not work but I insisted to help.

Her friend arrived and was surprised to see a new face cleaning her yard. Sis. Inday introduced me. Her friend tried to stop me. I explained that it was all right with me, and I just wanted to help Sis. Inday while we chatted. She then asked us to stop for a while and have some snack. We got to talk some more. Sis. Inday got back to her work. I remained chatting with her neighbor. She asked about my work, and I shared my experiences as a missionary. I shared who the Seventh-day Adventists people are and what they believe.

She found out that I was also a teacher, and we got many things to talk about school. She enjoyed our chat. She told me that she got tonsillitis and asked me about charcoal. A friend advised her to use charcoal. It was her first time to use it. I gave testimonies about the use of charcoal, and she was convinced to use it. She was thankful that day that I visited her house. I prayed for her before I left.

A Blessing to Your Neighbor

One of our goals is to add more Bible students. I went around the village looking for people who might be interested. While searching, Toto, one of the natives there, suggested that I go and visit his friends. Following his advice, I went and found them very receptive. They agreed to have Bible study with us.

I went to their house again one day for another Bible study. To my surprise, I found Kerker, my Bible student, performing

a ritual for his fellow natives. I heard him muttering unintelligible words while doing his ceremony. After he finished, I couldn’t help but ask him what that was about. “I am an albularyo,” he said. I tried to hide my surprise. After talking some more I asked him if he would like to continue our Bible study that day but he declined and said we’ll just continue another day. I visited

them again a day after but we still did not get the chance to study because of a family situation. I advised them to put their faith in God and I prayed for them before leaving. Kerker then told me to come back again.

When I came back the next day I found Kerker in a different mood. He told me not to come back anymore. I asked him why. He said he forgot his rituals ever since we started teaching them.

I know that God is working in Kerker’s life. Every night I am praying for him. I am planning to go back again and convince him to study the Word of God with me again. Please pray for him not to resist the leadings the Holy Spirit.

yet for us, ma’am?”“No one has answered the call yet. When

there are no missionaries, maybe we should call for two angels in heaven to help you there.” I answered to cheer her up.

“I like that, ma’am.” She laughed. “But they don’t eat rice.” I teased.“Oh that would be a problem.” She replied.“But we are doing good, ma’am. Still going

on with our faith, and going to the Ranggar during the Sabbath.”

*Babu was thankful for the presence of her grandchildren. They cheered her up everyday. Being

a grandmother of a four year old and a two year-old child is not easy. She and *Bapa, together with their grandchildren

go to the Ranggar during the Sabbath. Her neighbors who used to worship with them during the Sabbath moved to the next village which is an hour hike.

Her nearest neighbor is ten minutes’ walk away. Since her daughter got married, *Babu has no time to go around and see her neighbors. Her daughter who used to accompany her moved to another island with her husband. The two grandchildren who are with them also use much of her time.

Now, she has new neighbors. There are five households nearby. I told her that they need her to share about Jesus. She said that she will do it.

Pray for this couple that their faith will remain steadfast.

The missionary house is empty. There is no missionary staying in this project. A new schoolteacher with her family temporarily stayed in the house. But after 2 months, they left. A rumor spread that they saw ghosts or they felt presence of spirits in the house. They were afraid.

Obanis believed that when a house is left empty, evil spirits will stay in that house. To send the evil spirits away, the owner will call an ‘imam’ (Muslim priest), to pray in the house. Sometimes others use dried coconut leaves, light it with fire, and enter every corner of the room as if to send the evil spirits away with a smoke. Then the ‘imam’ will begin his ‘bang’ (prayer) facing the west.

Satan has spread fear in that island. He is using many ways to get the attention of the people. Spiritual battle is very real in this Muslim island. People are afraid of the evil spirits’ power. The enemy of the soul has succeeded in presenting himself as someone to be feared.

The place needs missionaries who are committed to stay and who will lead the community to win this spiritual battle by God’s grace. The missionary house needs to be filled with peace from the Almighty God.

“One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.” Proverbs 11:24 (ESV)

I have been working at PFM for almost ten years. From my first year in the ministry I have been a part of the Donor Ministry Department. Part of our tasks is to promote the ministry to SDA churches here and abroad. We also visit our supporters. Doing this is not easy but what motivates us is that we are inspired how God bless those who are faithful and generous in sharing their means to God’s work.

Last 2005, I met the “R” couple in Dasmariñas. When we promoted the ministry in their church, they have cheerfully committed P100 monthly for the ministry. I was inspired because even though they are not rich that time, they have the heart for God’s work. Every time I visit them to collect their donation, they regularly give despite their many existing expenditures. They work hard so that they can give their monthly support. I also found out that they are faithful tithe giver. When they received extra blessings, they gave more than what they have pledged. Year after year, the husband got some big building projects and other business opportunities were opened to them. Year after year, as their income increases, their monthly donation increases too. Now, I can say that they are already rich but they

remained as down to earth people. Their principle in life is that they are God’s steward. They owe everything to God so they will share the blessings to others. Because of this, our rich and generous God is blessing them more.

I also met a woman who has hypertension and other sickness due to old age. She spends P500 for her monthly check up. Sometimes she spent more than that when she needs to buy medicines. When PFM visited their church, she was moved to support the ministry. Though her money is limited, by faith she decided to pledge P200 monthly. During my visit in her house, we encouraged one another by sharing our testimonies. One time, she was so excited to share her joy to me. She said, “You know, before I’m spending P500 for my monthly check up. However, few months after I decided to support PFM, my doctor told me that I don’t need anymore to go to him because I am already well. God is great. I only give P200 to His work but He removed P500 from my monthly expenses so I gained P300. Indeed, when you are faithful, God is more than faithful.” I went home that day truly blessed with the testimony of this dear old lady.

To our faith-partners, thank you for your untiring support for PFM. You are not just a blessing to God’s work but to us as well. You continue to encourage us to sacrifice. Let us remember what Apostle Paul said in 2 Cor. 9:6, “The farmer who plants a few seeds will have a very small harvest. But the farmer who plants because he has received God’s blessings will receive a harvest of God’s blessings in return.” God bless us all.
