February Prayer Requests
Dear Praying Folks, Joy and I would appreciate your prayers as we both head to the Philippines from February 1-21. We are scheduled to preach and sing at 3-4 church services, teach two CPI training classes (one for pastors and church planters, and the other for youth leaders), and lead worship for our TEAM Philippines…
Prepare the Way of the Lord!
As soon as the wise men of the East saw His star rise, they prepared and were on their way to see King Jesus. We prepared and were glad for me (David) to be on my way back to the Philippines to train church planters and pastors in person again. The Tarlac province churches were…
With You Always
Jesus sent us to make disciples, promising to be with us always. He makes His presence felt by the timing of His provision, His peace, and His protection. That is what we felt as we traveled for three weeks to share with potential partners about the work of the Church Planting Institute in the Philippines.…
Let the Children Come!
We asked you to pray for this Aeta tribe in Zambales. Workers from the Malasiqui church went to Zambales to hold an Evangelistic Youth Camp with the Aetas, and over 200 Aeta children came. …And come! These youth workers continued their outreach in Mangaldan among families living as squatters along a discontinued railroad. The Philippine…
Double Harvest
As April ended, so did Evangelism Camp. Once again, more than half of the 240+ youth that attended camp were unbelievers when they arrived; many returned home with changed hearts, having trusted in Christ as Savior. This, however, was not the only harvest we saw at Evangelism Camp. Remember those 60 young people we trained…
Cross-Pollination
Beehive Activity Plants produce fruit once they have been pollinated. This spring we have been cross-pollinating with churches; sharing how we do ministry in the Philippines, and learning from them as well. We have also spent quality time with fellow church planters, swapping stories of God’s faithfulness, and building each other up for the work…
God With Us
…they shall call his name Emmanuel, which means, God with us.Matthew 1:23 You are in our hearts this season, as we celebrate the coming of our “God with us”.You, who have received Christ the Lord, are family with us – “children of God.”Merry Christmas! Love, The Weaver Family The Weavers: Miriam and Daniel, Nathanael and Ruth Knott,Melody,…
Helping God’s Fruit Bear Fruit
As we celebrate our 30th year working with TEAM in the Philippines, we also celebrate 25 years of God’s faithfulness to the Church Planting Institute (CPI). In 1996, the Gerona church sent us eight young men to join four from Mangaldan for our first CPI class. One of these men is now pastor of the…
Urgent Prayer Need
Our hearts are burdened for our Filipino churches this week. Would you join with us in focused prayer for them? As I met today online to train our Filipino pastors and church planters, this is what they told us. As of today: The pastor of our San Fabian church has died from covid-19The pastor of…
ABIDING FRUIT
As we abide in Christ, serving in dependence on His Spirit, He causes our efforts to bear fruit. Jesus told us to “remember the poor” as part of our gospel outreach. God has graciously provided resources for us to provide food for children most affected by 18 months of almost continuous pandemic lockdown. This practical…
No Graduation for Disciples!
In this life, disciples never graduate. Both of our own graduates would agree. Ruth graduated from Columbia International University with a degree in Psychology and Bible. Paul graduated from Heritage Christian Academy as Salutatorian of his senior class. Ruth and Paul both agree that their walk with Christ as disciples has barely begun. We are…
