BELIEVERS CHURCH CEBU
The end of September marked 2 years of Believers Church Cebu – it is amazing how quickly that time has passed. It seems just yesterday we held our first service, not knowing if anyone would show up! We have been very blessed to see God growing our fellowship – in strength and number. In addition to Sunday service, we have begun a class, focused on discipleship and doctrine, for those who have committed to serving at church.
We are currently working our way through 1 Corinthians on Sunday evenings, which is proving to be an insightful look at what real life Christianity should be, and how messy it can be.
STREET LEVEL MINISTRIES
In September, we held a special informational meeting for SLM – to explain who we are, and why we do what we do as an organization. We also hosted a board game tournament in Cebu, which proved to be a good night of friendly competition and lots of laughs. With the recent earthquakes, university life in Cebu and Toledo has been majorly disrupted, with most schools being entirely online for over a month. We are continuing to meet for dinner and Bible discussion in both locations and are currently studying the gospel of John. We are also looking forward to our upcoming summit in November!
SHOFAR MISSION
We are gearing up for the arrival of the next U.S. team in a few weeks! While they are here, we will be hosting more Ministry Training Institute classes, “Staying Strong: Abiding in Christ Through Prayer and Bible Study” in three locations. We will also be gathering some youth who are stepping up as leaders on the west side of Cebu Island for a summit discussing David Platt’s “Follow Me” material. And, as previously mentioned, hosting a Street Level summit as well! Those are all things we have planned, but God always surprises us with other opportunities or changes in our plans, so we look forward to what He has in store for us.
