Celebration Day- Worship at Newly Constructed Church

First Service at CC Hernani after rebuilding the church

Pastor Roger was chosen to give the message and all were blessed!

Worshiping the Lord for His goodness and faithfulness

Then we have Buffalo Bill (Pastor Bill) big time farmer now! One missions trip to the Philippines will change you in many ways!
Finally, we get to see what many have labored for, many have given to, and many have prayed toward.   A new worship center CC HERNANI is alive with saints! You can see that we still have more work to do on the details of the church as well as furniture, but the saints were so blessed to be back in their house of worship!

Rebuilding Homes, Rebuilding Lives, Bringing Fresh Water

Teams have been building homes for church members


 
Pastor Ron Brown continues to lead the teams and give us updates from the Calvary Chapel relief work that is going on. What a blessing to see people continue to pour out the love of Jesus on these desperate people.

We are continuing to reach out by building houses for members of the church that had their homes completely destroyed in the Typhoon.
 
 
 
 
The house wouldn't be complete without this essential room- the C.R. (bathroom)

Church is the biggest joy for these precious people with the teams that come to help

Food is always going to be a part of CC services and fellowship!

This is another house for the people from Sabang Suribau where many of our church members were affected by the storm.


We have pastors teaching our regular weekly prison ministry, Here is Pastor Roger Stalhut of CC New Horizon in Oregon having his opportunity to minister there

Again the team from CC Hatters Island.


Always taking the blessing of having visiting pastor’s teaching our Bible college students while they are with us.  Here is Pastor Billy from CC Hatteras Island teaching the Bible school.
Two teams coming to serve- CC New Horizons with CC Hatteras Island

New water tower now at the CC Hernani church facilities.
Huge help to all -including setting up for clean fresh drinking water for the whole community.
Thank God for the teams from Thailand, Hatteras Island, Oregon, and Romoland please keep them in prayer as they continue to show the love of Jesus to the Philippines in so many different ways. The people of Hernani are excited about this church building being resurrected as a focus of hope for all that have lost everything, soon they will have a place to gather to worship God together again. Thank You for all your help.
