Autumn, Sharon, and I took off for the Camotes Islands today.  We rode the 9am boat so that we could arrive there in time to go to Puertobello National High School for a 1pm film showing.  We brought the car loaded with speakers, an amplifier/mixer, projector, and computer along with microphones and lots of wires.

We are doing a BGR project here at the high school to repair damage to buildings from last year's Typhoon Yolanda.  Because of our help to her school, the principal has allowed and continues to allow us to share God's Word through film showings and values classes.  Our American Nehemiah team was allowed to stay on the school campus for the months of June and July.  The American Nehemiah team was able to share God's word a lot during their stay at the high school.  Brady, Brandon, and Caleb, along with their Filipino translators (Algie and Matt), were able to build close relationships with many students, and were able to baptize a few of them.

Today, we showed the film Alpha and Omega to about 250 students.  The film is in Cebuano, and has different parts that show the sinfulness and rebellion of mankind against God.  Then, the film shows parts of the Jesus film, and scenes of the Great White throne judgement.  Overall, it gives a strong gospel presentation.  Afterwards, I asked Algie to review and recap the film with the students and then share the gospel.  We don't know how many truly put their faith in Christ this day, but we believe God is doing a great work in the lives of these students.  We anticipate a great harvest in the days ahead.  We are so grateful for the presence of the Nehemiah team here, and their ministry to these students.

Later, in the evening, we had a great praise, fellowship, and prayer time with our awesome national partners, D2D team.  What an awesome privilege to work with these servants of the Lord!
