Getting Close to Completion


Getting ready for CC Hernani church to be opened.
 It has been four months since Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) devastated the Philippines.  Nothing was left of U-Turn for Christ/Calvary Chapel Hernani.  But by the grace of God, out of the rubble the church is almost completely rebuilt.  Thanks to all the teams in helping make this possible.  Ptr. Jerome's family lost their house.  We were able to construct housing for Ptr. Jerome's Mom and Dad which is also almost completed.
Almost ready to move Ptr. Jerome’s Mom and Dad into their own home.

CC Relief has the trucks now bringing food for the needy.

New teams arrive this one from our Calvary Chapel in Thailand for ministry opportunities.


Lots of ministry still to do, keep praying, keep supporting, or bring a team and help.
Trucks of supplies have been donated to bring food to the needy.  The Lord is supplying the need for those affected.  Thanks to the hearts of the saints being stirred up to minister.














Teams continue to come in from all over the world.  A team from Thailand has come to serve the people on Eastern Samar.

The church in Hernani was scrapped down to the bare foundation due to the typhoon.  But praise God that the Lord has provided laborers and material to rebuild.  God is amazingly good.
























Progress coming along as Bible School dining being rebuilt.  The school is getting block up to the second floor.  Ptr. Jerome’s dad’s house is also getting painted.
