It is a honor and a blessing to be connected with 5 amazing ministries in the Philippines. A large group of us summer missionary workers spent a few weeks serving these churches in various ways and we were able to see first hand not only their need for support, but the amazing work they are doing in the name of Jesus. With little resources, they are spreading The Gospel to some of the most unreached areas. 
 

We have established this fundraising account in an effort to provide funding for their remaining projects and needs. The primary project is to help complete the building of one of the churches. This is a really incredible church that is a flourishing ministry in the Philippines. Their primary source of support has decided not to support them for the rest of the year which leaves them in  a major pickle and the middle of their building project. 
 

The pastor of this church, Pastor Jeefrey and his wife, work full time in ministry as volunteers without compensation or any paid support. They must also work outside to provide for their ministry and their family needs. Pastor Jeefrey will take Monday for his “tent making” day and sell agriculture products to farmers. Some days, he sells nothing which means he is not able to buy food for his family. Often, he and his wife will go without meals so that the children can eat. A meager offering is taken Sunday morning at church, but because rhis region is poor, the offering is usually too small to cover the basic facility costs. 
 

Pastor Jeefrey and his wife have been asked to move from their current church location which also doubles as their home so that the owner can turn it into a mechanic shop. Though support and prayer, they raised enough funds to purchase land and start the building of a new church/home. Unfortunately, they are short some funds to complete the project. As you can see by the pictures, the church/home structure is not extravagant nor large in size. They need to complete the roof and the basic open walls so that they can move ASAP. 

They are just a few  thousand dollars shy of making this church/home livable. Any amount of support will help. We are trying to organically support this amazing ministry and save this family from being thrown out on the streets. 
 

Additional funds will be disbursed to the other remaining churches to assist with their current needs. Some have wind damage from the recent Typhoon, some are in need of resources to keep the church going. ALL funds will be sent to support these 5 churches.

We ask that you pray for these amazing families and ministries. They are making Jesus known to so many. They are spreading The Gospel to some of the most impoverished communities in the world.  God is on the move in this region and we are hopeful He will provide the means to continue their ministry! If you are looking for a wonderful way to give back this Christmas season, please consider supporting these churches.
