It is almost like a family reunion when the team comes together as one. We all gathered up at Manila and reacquaint with one another. This year we have over half the team new to the mission. It is powerful when God’s people are united to do one purpose. The consist of 86 members strong.
The trip was a 6 hour bus ride to the first site in El Nido Palawan. We are located near the water surrounded by mountains on all sides. It is a picturesque view of paradise. However, there are a mixed of religion and culture in one place and there a spiritual battle.
El Nido is now one of the thriving tourist spots in the Philippines. People in the area have gained an additional way of living. There are many people still needs medical and dental attention. There is no hospital in the area only small clinics. The nearest hospital is about two hours away.
Our first site was Bucana Elementary school which was in the middle of the mountains and a half an hour bus trip. We gave the Gospel to over 500 people and half gave their lives to the Lord Jesus. It was a powerful first day.
