As we travel to a gospel meeting in Compound church of Christ, we observed the great evidence of drought effect to the land in Matanao, Davao del Sur areas. Hectares of rice fields don't have plants anymore and it is impossible to plant any crops due to dry spell and severe heat. This area is one of the most affected by this long drought and this area also have many brethren who are living and more dependent in farming. Now, they are very hard up in finding foods and cause many brethren to have sickness. We are pleading for help to the brethren who are able. Please pray for us.
We preached the Gospel of Christ to many alien sinners and brethren in Compound church of Christ where brother Dominguez Manife preaches. This congregation was established 15 years ago but due to lack of preachers who could edify them, it became inactive for several years. But thanks to God, it was restored due to the request of the brethren who still remain in their faith.
I, Joshua A. Notarte, was one of the speakers who preached the word of God. Together with me who preached was my father, Julie Divine A. Notarte. Many visitors had attended and heard the truth about the Church of Christ. Brother Jonathan A. Notarte lead the songs. He was not able to preach because of his cough. Brother Joseph Notarte, my eldest brother was not able to go with us because of arthritis. This is due to our busy schedule in preaching in different places.
After preaching the truth, 8 SOULS responded the invitation and submitted to baptism. They heard the Gospel of Christ for several times through bible studies done by brother Dominguez Manife and his co-preachers. We immediately baptized them at the river and we give all the glory to God. Their names are: 1. Geraldine Culaman, 2. Rosita Cansing, 3. Nora Culaman, 4. Jenal Diambolang, 5. Ivy Culaman, 6. Dina Culaman, 7. Ronel Culaman, and 8. Romeo Codino
There is a great need of Bibles and Hymnals translated in our local dialect, "Cebuano." Only few were given to the brethren in different congregations because it is very limited in numbers. We thank brother Ron Halbrook in giving bibles translated in our local dialect which help many brethren for their bible study. In relation to hymnals, we do what we can to reproduce by printing copies but our printer is not heavy duty. It could only reproduce 10 hymnals per day. We need machine that could reproduce greater copies per day but it is quite expensive. Please help us pray for this matter.
