awesome job! The church building has always had a problem with flooding over the years and we have tried many
things to prevent the flooding from happening with no success, we raised the building, but it still flooded. Now we are
starting all over from scratch. Tearing down the old building and constructing a new one that will be raised high

REDEEMER ’S MISSION AR Y BAPTI ST CHUR CH
Redeemer’s Missionary Baptist Church had the honor of ordaining two of our godly men as pastors. Pastor
Bob is working with our mission outreach at Hergon. Pastor Abner has become our Associate Pastor at Redeemer’s Missionary Baptist Church. We praise the Lord for their faithful service to His work and surrendering to His calling.
NEW FELLOWSHIP HUT A T BMABC
Thank you, thank you and thank you, to all to of he churches that helped to make this Fellowship Hut a reality. There
was a great need for the students here at the Bible College to have a place where they could meet together and relax, fellowship and just have a little fun. The Fellowship Hut has become much more than that to the students. It has become a
place of Bible study, Small Groups, class rooms, fellowship, gatherings for special occasions, youth outings for the local
churches, and yes, even sleep. It is amazing how the Lord can use a small, simple little hut to bring about the changes in
the students lives.
“And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to t each others also.”
2 Timothy 2:2
THANKSGIVING EVENT

It's that time of the year again that the poor turkeys run and hide! They know what's going on! Ha! Yes, it is that time of the year that most
people are reminded to be thankful. What they don't realize is that every day should be Thanksgiving in their lives! Amen!
Our Cancer Support Group at St. Luke's Hospital in Manila has already celebrated Thanksgiving twice. On November 8 th and 15th we were
blessed to have two of the Philippines top motivational speakers, Francis Kong, and Ardy Roberto. We also had Pastor Jeric Soriano, who is
a well known pastor in Manila.
Each of us were highly motivated as we heard words of encouragement, words of hope, and words from their own personal experiences in
their lives. They also shared verses from God's Word that we can always hold near and dear to our hearts. We were all so very blessed to
hear a gospel presentation by Pastor Jeric about God's plan of salvation for sinful man! There were ten souls who accepted Christ into their
hearts! Now, that is something that we can be very thankful for. For many of those present, this was the first time they had ever heard God's
plan of salvation. So, we have much to be thankful for!

Johnny Salas, A True Disciple
By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another." John 13:35
Doyle & Linda Moore
Johnny Salas was one of the cancer patients at St. Luke's Medical Center. He
always had a smile on his face and a kind word of encouragement for all he
came in contact with. We became very close to Johnny and his wife, Annie,
during our time together. This gathering was a Thanksgiving, Christmas
celebration for them in honor of his testimony and love he shared with all of
us. He battled for a long time. He fought hard and never gave up. Johnny is
now with the Lord and is suffering no more, for that we praise the Lord!
