A night of creativity… or something like that

Recently, both Cebu and Toledo SLM groups had an evening of Pictionary and hanging out together. We warmed up our creative skills by playing “Telephone Pictionary”, where a phrase turns into pictures, and back into phrases, and usually ends up entirely different from the beginning. A lot of laughs and “what is that supposed to be?!” were had.

Then came the main Pictionary event and the competition was fierce. The teams battled their way around the board, showing off their art skills (or lack of art skills) as their teams guessed what was being drawn.

And of course, there was plenty of pizza and snacks to be shared too! As an organization we have nights like this because it’s fun to spend time together, but also, it helps us build deeper relationships with the people we are growing our faith with. Stay tuned for more to come!

March 2025 Summit

On a Friday evening, the members of Street Level Ministries Cebu and Toledo came together for an evening of fellowship and discussion. We were joined by Street Level U.S. current staff and alumni and really enjoyed spending time together, having dinner, and sharing stories.

The following day, we held a full day summit with participants from both sides of the island. We enjoyed a day of fellowship, worship, Bible teaching and small group discussion. The topic of the day was “Decision Time: Full Commitment or Empty Promises” discussing what it looks like to be used by God, verses being people who try to use God, and that now is the time to make that choice.

Pasko sa SLM…

And just like that, 2024 has come to a close for SLM Cebu and Toledo. We finished the year with a very merry Christmas party this week. We ate way too many cookies, tested our Christmas trivia knowledge, exchanged gifts, and showed off our “humming karaoke” talents. We are very thankful for what God has done in and through Street Level this year… and looking forward to what He has to come next year!

From all of us at Street Level Ministries on Cebu Island…. Merry Christmas!

Word on the Street Magazine Party

The competition was fierce last Thursday and Friday at our WOTS release party! We celebrated the 95th issue of our magazine with word-based games (Pictionary, Password, Fishbowl, a word search, and a crossword), and teams competed for prizes. We also enjoyed a video from the U.S. writers and editors who work on the magazine, and we read some sections of articles from the new issue. And there was food, of course!

It was a great evening in Toledo and Cebu! Hope you enjoy the latest issue of Word on the Street!

Coffee Giveaways

What better way to start your day than with a free cup of coffee or Milo? We have been enjoying getting out to campuses in Cebu and setting up our “pop-up coffee shop” of sorts. So far we have visited CNU, CIT, and CTU. We will definitely be back again, and will venture out to other campuses soon too, so stay tuned!

Toledo Outreaches

With universities in Toledo starting up, we got out with our booth to try to meet students. We had a great time playing a game to get a chance to win a free cold drink and also gave away a lot of our Word on the Street magazines! If you are in Toledo, be sure to join us every THURSDAY at 6PM for free dinner and Bible discussion.

The Life of Joseph: real life faith

The next several weeks at Street Level, we will be taking an in-depth look at the life of Joseph in the book of Genesis. His story is one of great trials and great faithfulness and is a life that we want to learn from. So join us in Cebu on Wednesdays or Toledo on Thursdays for free dinner and to discuss what real-life faith looks like.
