Cebu 2 You
MAAYONG PASKO AND MAAYONG BAG-ONG TUIG
Greetings from Cebu. We pray this newsletter finds you healthy and
preparing for this Christmas season, preparing to enjoy the Reason for the
Season. Jesus Christ. We are praying for each of you a joyous Christmas time
with your family and friends.
Thanksgiving Celebration
We were blessed this year to celebrate
Thanksgiving in the traditional ways. For the
second time in 13 Thanksgivings I was blessed
with a real Thanksgiving dinner with all the
trimmings. Sheilani and I were blessed to
share Thanksgiving with Pastor Eddie
Fernandez from CC Mactan and his family
along with another couple from their church.
Marcella cooked everything from scratch and
we feasted as we broke bread together and
had sweet fellowship. We all have so much to
be thankful for.

2. Our School feeding
Our feeding at Camp Lapu-Lapu elementary school continues each Monday with over 300-400 children. We
can now expand to even more but even though “the harvest is ripe, the workers are few”. We have many
workers but as we prepare to add another 100-200 children, we need more workers. Pray for God’s provision
and for additional workers.
Street Kids Ministry
Our Street Kids Ministry
has tapered off at 18-20
kids each Sunday evening.
We now give them a bath
twice a month and
haircuts as needed. Pray
for a breakthrough as we
continue to teach them
the Word of God, action
songs and memory
verses. Pray that we
can get enough donations
to provide them with
clean clothes and
underwear.
Special Blessing
We have received a special
blessing of $2500 for
another, larger vehicle.
Pray for us to find a good
vehicle for this price. The
one we selected is no longer
available. It would be good
to have another $1000-
2000 to have a better
selection. Pray about
having a fundraiser to help
us, if the Lord leads.
