Our hearts are burdened for our Filipino churches this week. Would you join with us in focused prayer for them? As I met today online to train our Filipino pastors and church planters, this is what they told us.
As of today:
- The pastor of our San Fabian church has died from covid-19
- The pastor of our Binmaley church has died from covid-19.
- The pastor and 3 members of our Malasiqui church are in the hospital for covid-19.
- The pastor of the Baguio church (and his entire family) is recovering from covid-19.
- The pastor of our Estipona church is recovering from covid-19.
- A church planter in Santiago City and his entire family/home are in quarantine with covid-19.
- Pastor Diawa (my main co-worker & pastor of the Mangaldan church) and his three sons are in quarantine with covid-19.
Praise the Lord that all the living pastors mentioned here were able to join the CPI training call we had this week. We had a special time of prayer for each of them, and for their church families. Most have had at least one funeral recently due to covid-19.
Pray that God would show His glory to and through these faithful workers, in life or in death. Pray that those who are sick will recover with zero complications.
Praise our faithful Father, who does all things well.
We are grateful for your faithful prayers,
David & Joy
