In the coming months, we will be busy with church visitations to Malita, Davao del Sur and Tagum City. We have been visiting Malita once a month over several months and have installed workers there in the person of Bro. and Sis. Benhur Negre. In Tagum City is sprouting a revival for an extended family and a few of their friends. We have decided to visit them for two Sabbaths each month, holding a home division church service for them. The remaining Sabbaths of the month, they make the two-hour trip to worship with us at the Royal Valley Free SDA Church.
This month, we'll be holding our second year anniversary celebration at the Ray of Hope Village, the female division of the Davao City Jail where we hold Bible Study sessions with the inmates every other week. This particular field of ministry has been very special to us, especially for the women in the congregation who felt it their duty to reach out to their sisters and help them find a way to Jesus, our Saviour.
On April will be the annual Summer Camp Meeting. As a refreshing change, we will hold the meeting in the church Campsite up in the mountains instead of the usual school grounds of the Royal Valley Academy - a way of breaking away from the summer heat of the city during this holy convocation. Preparations are already underway at the church campsite. More on the upcoming camp meeting will be posted here in the coming days. Also on April, we will be strengthening our personal labor programs so each of the church members can be equipped to labor personally and efficiently with God.
On May, two years after we held our last Vacation Bible School, we are revitalizing our Children's Ministry and holding a one-week program for kids and teens in a community in suburban Talomo, Davao City. It will be a simple program but will be filled with wonderful Bible lessons and praise songs and fun activities for children. Best of all, the youth from church will be the ones teaching and leading out in the VBS - making it a fun learning experience for all. As this is sure to be a challenging activity, we ask you to join us in prayer for the success of this program and every other endeavor put forward for God's glory all the world over.
We'll keep you posted. God bless you. :)
You might also want to visit our Church Building Project page. The church has been working and praying hard for this project to be fully realized and every day God brings us closer and closer to the mark. With the help of friends and brethren, we have almost reached the goal amount we need to make the initial payment for the land on which to erect the church.
