God’s Mighty Hands has moved here in every crusade!
We give God all the Glory and Honor and Praise!
God multiplied the rice in many of our crusades!!!!!!!!!
Here is an update since the last email:
NOTE: Some of our schedule got changed.
On Wed (6/5/2002) South Cemetery Makati, Metro Manila
————————————————————————————
God touch the people who live among the dead! The people live inside
the cemetery on top of the tombs!
By the Grace of God these people are not very sick!
Praise the Lord over 317 people raised their hands to receive Jesus
Christ as their Lord and Savior!
On Fri (6/7/2002) Tondo, Metro Manila:
——————————————————–
A little history about Tondo:
Tondo is an area where people (more than 50,000) live in the middle
of a garbage dump (for more than 20 years they have been living
there). They called the place “Smokey Mountain”.
About 6-8 months ago the government moved the people from the garbage
dump to some old horse barns (about 34 buildings) and sent other back
to the province. They placed 1000 families in each building. The
building only have enough room for 16 families! The only way these
people get money to feed their families is to go thru the garbage and
find aluminum cans, glass bottle or cardboard and sell to recycle
area.
Last year over 800 people died when the monsoon (tropical rains) came
and the people got crushed by the garbage sliding down on top of them.
Crusade:
My heart was moved so much by the people! Praise God we could at
least give them some food! For two to three days 1,075 families will
be able to eat good rice! Thank you Jesus! Thank you Partners! God
also made 3 extra bags(75 families worth) to appear already bagged in
2kg bags (God takes care of the detailes)! So instead of only
feeding 1,000 families we were able to feed 1,075! Glory to God!
Praise His wonderful Name!
God moved so much in the Tondo Crusade! God had Lina and I pray over
70 people. Many people healed! Blind eyes see! Heart problems
healed! Deaf ears opened! People with breathing problems breathing
normally! Hurting knees healed! Stomach problems fixed by the power
of God!
In the crusade over 2,171 people accepted Jesus as their Lord!
On Sat (6/8/2002 10am) Basego South Pier Manila:
—————————————————————————
A little history about Basego:
This is a pier area where about 5000 families live in very ugly
conditions. They live in small tents. A very bad odor (use your
imagination) exists everywhere.
A fire accrued 6-8 months ago that killed more than 300 people
destroying 3000 homes.
Crusade:
We had a very muddy time! The rain came down right before the
crusade was to start and everyone ran to a small building that was in
the middle of the area. Praise God we still had our crusade!
Glory to God!
We feed 1000 families.
Over 817 made Jesus their Lord and Savior!
On Sat (6/8/2002 4pm) Sta Ana, Metro Manila:
——————————————————————–
Let all the earth Praise the Lord!
We feed 250 families.
Over 178 people came to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior!
We prayed over about 10 people.
One of the ladies we prayed over was an older lady (in her 70s) and
she asked for strength. 15 minutes later, she was bringing bucket of
water back to her home. She was so very happy.
Another lady that we prayed over was pregnant and overdue. God
touched her and she is no longer scared!
On Sun (6/9/2002) Hope Church San Pedro, Laguna
—————————————————————————–
Praise God! Glory Halleluiah! Praise His wonderful Name!
This was Hope church’s normal 10am Sunday service, but they brought
500 families who did not know Jesus into the service.
God move so strong in this service/crusade. The Holy Spirit was all
over everyone! Everyone could feel His loving presence! We were all
overwhelmed by His power!
The president of the Gideon Bible Society for the Philippines was in
the service with his wife. They gave out Bibles before the service.
When I told people to come forward for healing, He was the first one
who stepped forward and God healed him! Praise God! His wife asked
Lina if we gave out Bibles in our crusade. Lina told her we would
like to, but they were too expensive to bring and too expensive to
purchase. The wife of the president of the Gideon Bible society told
my wife that they we help us. By giving bibles to us to hand out at
all of our crusades from now on! Thank you Jesus!!! God works
wonders!
When the people came to give their hearts to Jesus, the presence of
the Holy Spirit was so strong. People were in tears and you could
see the joy in their eyes.
We feed 500 families.
Over 650 people came to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior!
We prayed over about 30 people.
Thank for all your faithful prayers. We feel them. The devil tries
to hinder us in different ways. But God has the victory! Thank you
Jesus!
God is so awesome!
To date over 4,133 people have made Jesus Christ their Lord and
Savior! Praise be to God!
More to Come
In Him,

Praise the Lord!
Thank you all for your prayers and your support!
God has used everyone!
I forgot to mention in our Crusade on Sun at Hope Church in San Pedro
God told me to have Jhon Reyes(my Brother-in-law whom God
miraculously healed his lungs several months ago) and Doug Foley
(whom God set free of drugs in 1994) give their testimonies! God
used them mightily!
6/10/2002 Ladies Meeting – Sta Ana
—————————————————–
Lina had a Ladies Meeting in Sta Ana in Lina’s family home.
Praise God! It was an awesome meeting!
Lina shared her testimony about what God had done in her life, and
all 45 ladies gave their hearts to Jesus!
Lina got an idea from Pastor Kim(Our Pastor’s wife) ladies meetings
at COTR. She gave a small gift of shampoo to all ladies in the
meeting and she feed them dinner! After the meeting Lina gave candy
and toys(brought by Doug) to children who had come with thier mothers
to the meeting. People were so happy!
God is So GOOD!!!
Lina & I are moved to tears of compassion for all the poor people who
live in such poor conditions. They are so open to hear the Gospel of
Jesus Christ! The harvest is truly plentiful! Oh that we could do
more! So many hurting, so many lost, so many do not know the peace,
joy, and hope that comes from knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ!

Praise His name forever!
Thank you again partners! You made this possible!
God moved in so many ways! Everyday we had miracles!
Tue 6/11/2002 Leverriza
———————————-
God touched so many people here. We held the crusade on the
basketball court in the park next to Leverriza. The Love of Jesus
touched so many. We prayed over the sick people as a group, since we
did not have the ability (too many people) to pray over them
one-on-one. One man who had a heart people felt the power of God
come on him and he started to jump up and down. Others where
shouting for joy for their miracle!
Praise Jesus!
We feed 500 families.
Over 618 made Jesus their Lord and Savior!
Wed 6/12/2002 R & R
———————————-
We went to a beautiful place in Laguna called Villa Virginia.
It was nice to breath some clean air and sit in the cool rapids.
Even though this was a day for us to rest, God sent a man to us to
minister to him. This man was at the villa with his company, he was
so very drunk. He kept on following Doug Foley around, and then
started to follow Doug & I both around. We could not understand his
English and he could not understand us either. Finally, Lina talked
with him and lead him to the Lord! We, Doug, Lina & I, placed our
hands on him to pray for him and he began to weep and cry! He told
Lina that something kept drawing him towards us. When we had our
Bible Study about 10 minutes after we prayed for him, he joined us,
no longer drunk but completely free of alcohol! Praise Jesus!
Thru 6/13/2002 Tondo 2nd Meeting – Hope Church in Tondo
————————————————————————————–
This was the second meeting for the Tondo area. We had the meeting
at Hope Church in Tondo. We had ran a little late due to the traffic
in Manila(it is very heavy). After we ministered to the people, God
came and showed them His love!
We feed 525 families.
Over 678 made Jesus their Lord and Savior!
Fri 6/14/2002 Orbis Tondo, Pangasinan (Province)
————————————————————————-
A little history about Orbis Tondo, Pangasinan:
This a small village about 4-5 hours north of Manila and about 1.5
hours north of the old Clark US Air Force base. People in this area
are very poor and most of the men resort to kidnapping and hiring
themselves out as hit men to feed their families. Around May 5,
2002, the Philippine military had raided a mosque in the Pangasinan
area and found it to be a training area for Al Qaeda (see here for details)
…But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more… (Rom 5:20)
Crusade #1:
This took place in the town square. So many people were touched be
the power of the Holy Spirit and healed! We asked everyone who
wanted prayer to hold up their hand, about 150 did. So Lina and I
started to prayer for each one. A teenager from Hope Church, Rachel
interrupted for me when I prayed for people on one side, while Lina
prayed for people on the other. I prayed for one older lady who had
cataracts in her eyes so bad that she could not see. I placed my
hand on her eyes and asked Jesus to heal her. When I took my hands
off, I asked her (with Rachel’s help) to see if she could see any
better, she said a little, so the lord told me to place my hands on
her eyes again, and I did. This time she was able to see! After the
people behind the older lady saw this, about 300 more people wanted
us to prayer over them! We saw God heal instantly so many people.
Blind eyes opened, arthritis gone, heart trouble gone, breathing
problems healed, and on and on! We could see they had overwhelming
faith to believe that God would heal them! One man was so excited
about his healing that he did not want the rice, he wanted a bible!
Hope Church is going to contact Gideon Bible Society and have them
pass out bibles in the area as soon as possible.
God Loves His people!
God multiplied the rice again! He added 6 new bags!! Jesus, you are
an Awesome God!!!!!
Over 1,215 people accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior!
We feed over 700 families here.
Crusade #2:
This was at Hope Church! So many children here! God touched his
people so much. I had Jhon Reyes(my Brother-in-law whom God
Miraculously healed his lungs several months ago) and Doug Foley
(whom God set free of drugs in 1994) give their testimonies again!
God used them mightily!
Over 357 people accepted Jesus as their Lord!
God multiplied the rice again and we had 4 extra bags to give to the
people! God you are so good!
We feed over 300 families here!
Because of your support & God’s multiplying, we were able to feed
over 5,075( that is over 40,000 people!) and over 7,051 accepted
Jesus as their Lord and Savior!
To God be the Glory and honor!
Sat 6/14/2002 Pastor Conference
——————————————————————–
Miracle: The hotel normally charges $100 per hour for the conference
room and we needed to have 4 hours. After my wife told them we could
not afford that much, they told my wife we could have the conference
room for $50 for all four hours! Thank you Jesus for your favor!
Conference:
We had a meeting with the Hope Church Pastors that were in the Manila
area (about 15 of them). The Holy Spirit showed up in a major way!
His presence was so strong that most of us though we were going to be
rapture at that very moment! He touched each and every one of the
pastors and gave them a major refreshing and a new deeper burden for
the lost Philippine people! His presence in the room lasted for
almost 1 hour! The presence of the Holy Spirit was so strong, that
when the Holy Spirit asked me to close the meeting, I could not. All
I could do was praise Him!
Thank you for all your prayers and support! God moved in an
incredible way this year!
