Brother Fedelito Matampole, died in accident

September 02, 2015

          Brother Fedelito Matampole, who is currently preaching at Upper Labay church of Christ, Upper Labay, General Santos City, Philippines DIED in a motorbike accident. On the evening on October 1, 2015, while he is riding his motorbike was hit-and-run by unknown vehicle. Nobody saw the incident because the place was dark. He was rushed to the nearest hospital but after few hours he died due to internal hemorrhage of the brain.

He is a preacher of the Church of Christ for a long time. Through his work, many congregations were established in different places. He helped on preaching at Sabangan church of Christ, Malungon Gamay Church of Christ, Kibawalan Church of Christ, Upper Labay Church of Christ and many more. He is one of the most active preacher that I know who is willing to sacrifice and to help other brethren for the work of God.

Few hours ago at 8:00 PM, we went to the funeral home in Malungon, Sarangani Province where the body of our brother was laid. His wife could not stopped on crying together with their children. We helped them what we can and comfort them in this time of grief. 

Their hospital obligation was not yet paid. They just sign on a promissory note in order to release the dead body but did not actually know where to get money to pay their bills. They are pleading for help to the brethren who are able. Please pray for them and help them.

This is the picture taken in the morgue where the body of brother Fedelito was laid. From the left standing is brother Joseph NotarteCebe Arjay Notarte, I (Joshua Notarte), Pedrito Matampole (his brother in flesh who is also a gospel preacher of the Church of Christ), next is my father Julie Notarte and Ben Dulong.
