~Philippines~
Located in the southeast
region of Asia, the Phillipines (or more formally known as The Republic
of) is a uniquely shaped group of 7,107 oddly shaped islands. Of these
7,000 some islands, only 1,000 are inhabited by people. Most who find
their way to this area, are greeted by the friendly and laid back heir
of the locals. Of the 85 million inhabitants, about 90% claim
Christianity, but are trapped in lifestyles that are very different
from the Truth of the gospel. Most Fillipinos who claim the Christian
faith also practice ancient ancestral worship and do not understand the
concept of “THE Way, THE Truth and THE Life” found in scripture. Drug
abuse, child neglect, and spirit worship are common themes within this
island.

Our God is bigger than the biggest oppression this
desperate country is facing. He is screaming freedom louder than the
cries of the neglected children and louder than the 40 million youth
who are screaming for an identity larger than themselves. Can you hear
them? They are crying out …
