Philippines-Bacolod Newsletter (July)

Dear Friends and Partners,

Greetings in Christ!

Thank you for your prayers and support. We are grateful for God's faithfulness as we continue equipping believers and advancing the Gospel. We hope these ministry updates, testimonies, and prayer requests encourage you.

MINISTRY UPDATES

Outreach Bible Study

Our Bible studies in the outreach ministries continue as we help strengthen the believers in their faith and encourage them to grow in their relationship with the Lord.

Weekly Prayer Meeting

Our weekly prayer meetings continue every Thursday and Saturday. We thank the Lord because as we faithfully come together in prayer, He continues to answer our needs and reminds us of His faithfulness.

Youth Ministry

We thank the Lord for the lives of these young people who continue to study and grow in the Word of God. It is a joy to see them faithfully learning His truth and strengthening their relationship with Him. We pray that they will continue to grow in their faith and become faithful servants of the Lord.

Children's Ministry

We thank the Lord for the lives of these children who continue to be used by God in offering songs of praise to Him. They joyfully sing to the Lord, and it is a blessing to see them worship Him with glad hearts.

Fellowship Ministry

We thank the Lord for the lives of our brothers and sisters in Christ who continue to encourage one another and strengthen each other's faith through fellowship. Their unity and love for one another bring glory to God.

Baptism Update

Praise the Lord that more souls have sincerely surrendered their lives to God through water baptism. We rejoice as they publicly declare their faith and commitment to follow Christ in obedience.

TESTIMONY

Testimony

Praise the Lord for the wonderful testimony of one of our church members. She joyfully shared how God answered her prayers. In the past, she struggled with poverty and poor health. However, when she sincerely dedicated her life to serving the Lord, God brought healing into her life. He also blessed her husband and children, and in time, the Lord allowed them to be married.

Since then, God has richly blessed their family spiritually, financially, and materially. As an added blessing, the Lord also provided them with a home.

We give all the glory and praise to God for His amazing grace and faithfulness.

PRAYER REQUESTS

• Please continue to pray for the provision of a lot where the church building can be established.

• Please continue to pray for more faithful and dedicated workers in the church ministry.

• Please continue to pray for greater fruitfulness in soul-winning and evangelism.

• Please continue to pray for protection, strength, and endurance as we travel to distant places for ministry work.

• Please continue to pray for a vehicle that can be used for the ministry, especially in reaching far areas and outreaches.              

CLOSING NOTE

We give all glory to God for His continued faithfulness in our ministry this month. We remain grateful for every life touched, every heart renewed, and every opportunity to serve. May we continue to walk in obedience, passion, and unity as we advance God’s kingdom.

In Christ,

ETSIM Bacolod Family
