Medicine Pack out for the Medical Mission to the Philippines

The excitement grows as we are 14 days from the start of the mission. Last night, we started to pack out all the medicines recieved. Each person contributed in packing out 14 luggages of medicine to bring out to the field. We had to balance out the weight so that none of the luggages were over the limit to avoid being charge of excess weight at the airport. Everyone did a great job as we inventoried the medicines. God is showing me the make up of the team, energetic, joyful, patient, enthusiastic, flexible, and ready to serve. Pastor Nick who is one of the leaders for this mission to the Philippines encouraged us with this Word from Isaiah 49: 1-6, that described the Servant of the Lord. We are called to be servants of the mighty God who continues to show His compassion to the world until the Day arrives when we are with Him. The team has answered the call to be an instrument in showing His love and compassion. Pastor Parris from GBC Pearlside sent us off with a prayer to bless the Hawaii based team to join the rest of the ARMS team in Manila. What an awesome night it was for the team. Stay tuned for all updates.

More Volunteers Joining

Excitement is in the air as the mission comes to fruition. We are ready go and in three weeks we fly out to Manila. We have added a new member on the team and finally was approved leave to go. God is awesome how He orchestrates this team to be built. Last month we had almost 80 volunteers that will participate to make up the entire team. With that many team members we are able to conduct two sites in a day. So we needed more doctors and dentist to split the team in two. God has provided and we found enough medical professionals with the heart to serve. Praise the Lord! However, we will need more medicines. Please continue to stand with us as God multiplies the medicines through donations of the people praying and supporting this mission. Last year we treated over 4,000 people with one site a day now we expect to treat more than 7,000. Wow! how amazing is that and exciting to be part of the great harvest that God will bring into kingdom. Is God calling you to come? Let me know.

Philippine Medical Mission Outreach 2010

We are preparing for the Medical Mission Outreach for 2010. The dates of the mission will be April 12-24, 2010. Anyone interested in joining the team, there is still time to go to the Mission field. We will be going to Pangasinan and Palawan. I am believing God that this will probably be a bigger outreach than last year. God blessed us with miracles signs and wonders. He is a big God that does big things. Continue to pray that more doctors, dentists, and nurses will attend this years medical mission. Pray for travel mercies to the Philippines and within the country. Volunteers from Hawaii has doubled this year. We are all excited in what God will do on the mission. Lives will be forever change with encouragement and hope from God. Especially a total different perspective of God with those who volunteer. So join us in an exciting life-changing experience.

Sixth and Last site - Krah Gnoung Village

The last site was indescrible of what God continued to show the team. More people came to the site than any other site we have setup. The Team had to walk in to the area because the road was too narraow to drive the bus. Also they saw the children swimming in a small farming field that was filled by the rain in the last few days. The weather did not cooperate that day as well because the last two hours it rained with lightning, but the team held down the tent from blowing away. What a way to end an amazing time in the mission field when everyone was at peace even if around was chaos. We treated over 400 people up to the last minute of the clinic. Unthinkable events are possible as God shows His power and mercy that boost up your faith to the next level.
