The saints trekked to a nearly remote place of Sitio Malalim in Baras, Rizal one Sunday afternoonfor one special reason. Braving the rough and rocky road (which busted a tire of one brother’s vehicle) and a long drive from Cubao, the saints joined the small band of believers, about 6 families, in the celebration of the first anniversary of the mission work in the area.
When we arrived at the place the people have already filled the small hut that we built and use for a house of worship. There were so many children. The youths brought them outdoors and taught them songs and the Word of God. Others joined in praie and worship and offered songs and testimonies to the Lord.
Some of the highlights of the day were: dedication of children, wherein three families offered their new born and toddlers to the Lord’s special care; special offerings of song and praise by young and old; and the Children’s Bible class conducted by the youths.
Although we could stay longer than the light of day would allow us because there was no electricity, the few hours we spent was well worth the journey. The saints were very glad at the works of God in our midst. The youths, especially, enjoyed a new and different setting of serving and ministering to the people of God.
