Articles with Cebu Island

This Friday (May 9) at 7PM at the Street Level Ministries Toledo Space we will be hosting an outdoor movie night! Free for students! Complete with hotdogs, fries, popcorn and plenty of sweets! You won’t want to miss it.

Recently some of our members took an opportunity to set up our booth at a large youth gathering to let students know about Street Level. The event was for youth all over Cebu island (and surrounding islands) and was two days long. We had a good time hanging out together at it, and made some good connections along the way. The main piece of information we gave away was a mini ‘zine, “A Compact Guide on How to Not Waste Your Life”.

Since there was a crew from the Toledo side of the island spending some time in Cebu, we took a bonus adventure to TOPS and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon together too! We definitely took a road less traveled to get there, but that was part of the fun.

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!

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.

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!

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!

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.
