Making disciples, training future missionaries, caring for the poor.
We are preparing Filipinos for the harvest field, because they can get into several nations where Westerners usually cannot. And the Philippines is within the 10/40 Window as well as the Circle of Concentrated Population, so we are in close proximity to most of the world’s population and most of the unreached groups. The Philippines has the highest rate of English fluency in Asia, which can help open doors for missionaries to go as English teachers. Additionally, since there are several unreached Muslim tribes on our island, we are training workers to reach these harvest fields.
The church we started now has two Sunday locations and about twenty home Bible studies.
We are also helping to support five Filipino missionaries who are working in unreached Muslim and Buddhist tribes.
Besides our focus on reaching the unreached, we help the poor with medical expenses, school expenses, clothes, and occasionally home furnishings such as a counter-top stove. Meeting physical needs often leads to opportunities to meet spiritual needs, as our Lord Jesus demonstrated. Many of the people in our church are desperately poor. Acts 7:1-6–as well as many other New Testament passages–commend caring for the poor while preaching the Gospel.
Our passion is to send and support laborers for the Lord’s harvest. We have already helped train many laborers, but so many more need our help to train, launch, and support them wherever the Lord sends them.

Our personal expenses are covered by my small early-retirement pension from the USPS, so we don’t spend any donations to the charity on ourselves (unless someone specifies it is for us, which has happened a few times).
