We want to share a beautiful report of praise and prayer from Dr. Linda, on the mission field in Cebu, Philippines. We’re blessed by her report and trust that you will be also. Let’s remember this excellent ministry in prayer as we delight in Dr. Linda’s beautiful report below.
Thankful to share with you and pray with you.
To God be the Glory!
Dear Prayer Partners,
Greetings from Cebu, Philippines. I trust this email finds you well.
After resting for about two weeks since I arrived home on February 7th, I met with the volunteer teachers to plan for the monthly Bible lessons for the children’s ministry in Maghaway.
On February 24th, eighty kids came with great anticipation to learn more about God’s Word. It always warms my heart to see and talk to some of the children before the class. They were all excited to see me again! Two little boys told me with pride that they helped the teachers clean and arrange the tables and chairs. Both of them were shorter than I am. I asked them their age and they were already 10 years old. They said it’s what they do in school, too – clean and arrange. I was humbled by their sense of responsibility and their joy in serving to make the children’s center ready for Bible Class.
We had a good interaction about the lesson we learned from the Good Samaritan on loving our neighbors. Two of them volunteered to recite the memory verse found in Matthew 22:39. Workshop time was a little bit chaotic at first. Everyone wants to get their crayons of choice to color the worksheet. We will buy more crayons to use the next time. The class ended with prayer and giving snacks to the children.
Thank you so much for your continued support and prayers. May the Lord bless you always.
Together We Serve,
Linda Faith Q. Balugo

Matthew 25:35-36
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ Matthew 25:35-36
Thank you for covering Dr. Linda in prayer with us. May God be ever glorified in all that is done as unto Him! Praise His name!
AMEN!
