Team Meetings


The week before Thanksgiving the Talbots drove from Ontario to Virginia so that we could all meet at the Peterson's home. We had a great time catching up, planning, praying and of course eating.

The Sunday before last we all got to meet the people of the Peterson's home church. The following Sunday we all trekked back to my place to put on a presentation here at Grace Bible. We had a great time sharing our testimonies, presenting the work that we feel God is leading us to and topped it off with a potluck. Of course, Shannon, Dana and I brought some Filipino food and drink for people to sample. :-)

That evening we all traveled up to Penn. to share a bit with the folks of Community Bible Church. Afterwords, the Talbots hit the road for an all-night trip home and the Petersons started on their way to NY for Thanksgiving.

We are so thankful for the time to encourage one another, to pray and to plan. Many thanks to all those who have prayed, given and encouraged us.

Church meetings


After all the busyness of the wedding I've had the great privilege of sharing with the missions class at Baltimore school of the Bible. Then I was invited to speak at a church in Pennsylvania and to finally meet face to face with some friends there.

Following that, I took a trip up to Michigan to see my roommate from Bible school and was able to share at her church. While I was there I was able to hook up with my partners, the Talbots, and to do a tag-team sharing at Chapel time in the Bible school we had attended.

Just this last Sunday, there was an opportunity to speak at Peninsula Baptist Church. Not only did I finally meet some people who I had only met through email but my sister was able to come with me.

Looking back at all these opportunities and new friends, I am really thankful for all the God has done. Many thanks to those who hosted me and allowed me to share what God has been doing.
