WHBTC Masbate 2008

Written by Web Admin on February 6, 2009 – 9:34 am -

As many of you know, we opened a new Bible training center in the heart of Masbate City in early August of 2008. Many graciously responded for our call of help! Twenty students enrolled for the charter class from Masbate Island, Ticao, and Burias Island for the 10-month ministerial training. A Library was quickly set-up to help the students and local pastors. Outreach teams also took off two months later for evangelism. To date, these students led 3,350 souls to the Lord Jesus Christ! Hallelujah! Your love, prayers and support allows us to train men and women for God’s end-time harvest! On behalf of the World Harvest staff and students we want to thank you Friends and Partners in the Ministry!. We believe God for a bountiful blessings back to you and your family for your labor of love and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ!

Here in Masbate City….

Written by Web Admin on August 6, 2008 – 2:16 pm -

Dear Friends,

Greetings in Jesus’ name! May this note find you blessed and enjoying the rest of summer break.

I arrived back safe to Masbate City Monday inspite of two typhoons lingering in the Philippine atmosphere. It was good to find Ptr Pio and Bro. Rey waiting for me at the airport with the ministry FX. The students and their pastors and a few parents were waiting in school when we arrived. There was joy and excitement in the air as the students with eyes filled with anticipation waited for my instructions. A local Masbateno brother (Joey) assisted as as we purchased the electric fans, class chairs, ordered a custom made whiteboard, kitchen items (such as kaldero, kawali, sandok, etc), water dispenser, tons of light bulbs, etc.

The previous tenant failed to pay the electric bill for almost one year. We went ahead and paid the humongous balance at the Marelco and was promised electricity by 4pm that day. By the time we arrived back to school in the evening, lo and behold, we held our very first night in school on candlelights, every mosquito feasting on my feet, and doors with broken locks. Super init. I really thought i was suffering for Jesus especially my hairdo (he he he). With our cellphones dying on us, we really needed electricity. Pastor Pio and Rey returned to the elec company the next day and praise the Lord, we’re on business!

Island Mission Update – Masbate City

Written by Web Admin on July 19, 2008 – 6:05 am -

Dear Friends and Partners in Christ,

Greetings from the busy streets of Masbate City! I am here at a sidewalk internet cafe. Sis Marcia (our school administrator) and I have been here in the city for three days scouting for a place to rent for the training center. Finally this morning we found one that will probably meet the need of the training center but will need much improvement. It is located in the main street about a mile away from the city proper. We also had the favor to speak to the Pastor’s Meeting yesterday to introduce the bible school. We had a good reception and feedback beyond our expectations. We also went ahead and interviewed students who were present at the meeting. The Lord is truly good! We are also blessed to receive military cots from Lord of the Harvest Church in San Antonio needing to be shipped here in Masbate. This will be used by the students in their dormitory. Thank you very much Pastor Joe and the LHC family. As far as needing a school administrator, one of our alumni residing in Hongkong, Sis Jackie Ballesteros, will be returning to the Philippines this month to take charge of the training center under the supervision of Sis Marcia. Masbate training center will officially open August 4 (monday).
