WE REPAIRED & RENOVATED OUR MINISTRY VAN


Our 21 passenger van, new in 1999. It was shiny and sparkling. Time has taken its toll in this humid environment.	Our van today, scrapped down to bare metal and rust. It is ready for renovation. Residing and painting will cost approximately $2,500.	Another look at our van before it was decimated by rust and the elements. It will look like new again, soon, we hope.

110 ALUMNI ATTEND	ALUMNI HELP ME CELEBRATE MY 65TH BIRTHDAY!


British alumnus, Pastor Mark Anderton, was one of the seminar speakers and also ministered to us in a session of special music he had written. Pastor Mark, his wife, Belen, and their three children live on the island of Leyte.	Alumnus, Rev. Albert Jo, taught two sessions and blessed us with his joy and humor. Rev. Jo has been our Training Center Director for several years. He is now an Associate of LOTWM. His wife, Marilou, is also an alumnus.


The 108+ alumni and spouses who attended the January 2005 seminar were taking notes and eager to be back in "class" again. The combination of God's Word, fellowship, praise and worship and good food make our seminars times of joyful reunions for all of us. It is also a time of being refreshed by God's Word and the move of the Holy Spirit in our midst.	The hotel where we hold our Alumni seminars offers a central location, air conditioned comfort and wonderful buffet luncheons. We all ate and enjoyed our time together so much. Our goal is to have at least three Alumni seminar gatherings in Bacolod each year, with special speakers and good food.


I prayed for several alumni and their spouses who needed healing in their bodies or strength for the mission the Lord had called them to fulfill. The Power of God was very strong!	Pastor Mark Anderton and Rev. Albert Jo ministered to many of the alumni who came forward for prayer. People were encouraged in their ministries and also received prayer for their financial needs.

What is a party without a birthday cake?
This one was for 100+ guests.

158 CHILDREN ATTEND OUR ANNUAL CHRISTMAS
PARTY & FEEDING PROGRAM IN MANAPLA


On December 18, 2004, our staff took hundreds of gifts, loads of food, treats and love out to our campus for our annual Children's Christmas part for the indigent children living around our property.	There were 158 kids, on hand to be blessed by the praise and worship, as well as the Bible teaching, food, games and gifts. Most of these children come each week but a few new kids (and their parents) got saved at the party!


The children feasted on spaghetti, fried chicken, bread rolls and Mango juice. Look at the size of the portion and the size of the child.	It took four strong men to carry the pot with all the spaghetti over to the tent! Our staff love the Children's Ministry and Feeding Program. These children in our area love our staff, too.	This little boy's face says it all as he received his Christmas gifts. They know that Jesus sent us, not Santa Claus! God is moving here.


Alumnus, Evangelist Michael Osorio shared the wonderful Christmas story to the kids and parents.	The Lord gave Evangelist Osorio a Word of Knowledge for asthma and several children came for healing.	Our alumnus and staff worker, Danilo Yanga, watches as his daughter receives her Christmas gifts.


This game had lots of apples hanging down on strings and a team of two had to find a way for one to hold and the other to eat the apple. These won!!!	Our staff spent hours making this "pabiting" grill and attaching toys for the children to jump up and retrieve. They jumped very HIGH!	All the children received a blouse or shirt in their size, slippers and candy. Here they model their new clothes! They were very happy!
