gotta love my church

I guess it's pretty obvious, since the beginning of this blog, that I am a proud believer of the Lord Jesus Christ. I have accepted Him as my Lord and Savior way back in 1994 in a very strict and closed Muslim country where me and my family lived for over 18 years. Since then, I've developed this on and off fellowship with Him until He directed me back to the Philippines where i surrendered my life for anything He wants me to do.

Now, I am freely worshiping and serving him at Faith Baptist Church - South Metro. We've been attending this church even before it was turned over to the leadership of Rev. Delbert Hooge. We were not members yet, but we enjoyed and was fulfilled with the unique way Pastor Hooge delivered his messages. I can still remember the old apartment the church rented out. I t had a weird layout! the stairs going up the auditorium was skinny and hard to step on, and lead right in the middle of the auditorium. I guess that's why only a few of the members are late! We had videos back then, and over head projectors that made Bible Learning so systematic. And who can forget Mr. Jethro San Juan leading the singing...i can always see kuya je in him! :)

Now, the church has been blessed to acquire a nice facility and a new mission field to plant the gospel of Christ. After more than 5 years of being in the Parañaque area, it's time to harvest the fruits! I am very happy to say that a lot of our young people had stepped up to teach and use their God given talents and abilities. Friendships were formed and even tested but all in all, God is glorified.

This year, Faith Baptist Church will be embarking on new challenges. Stretching the limits of our faith. I am anticipating the hand of God moving in His favor. There's a lot more work to do. The wicked is not resting...so why should we?

I'm very much content with my church...it's not a perfect one. We still have one or two rotten apples that sometimes affect the batch...but nothing that Grace can't handle. I've heard a lot of things said about my church...and I'm not mad at them...because most of them are true! I just perceive them in a different light.

So if you're lost and don't know how to regain the relationship with God that was lost during Adam's fall...or if you already have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ but still don't know what to do with life...then i urge you to visit us! go to our website (www.fbcmm.net) or leave a message on our facebook page (search FBC SOUTHMETRO) or email us at office@fbcmm.net and we will be glad to give you directions to our church.

Everyone is welcome!

so...

I'll see you there next Sunday!
