The LeaderSpecial Music in Me…that was the theme of this years Pastors Conference. Of course, this is referring to the LORD Jesus Christ who helps us be the best leaders we can be. It was a great week and we really enjoyed spoiling these filipino pastors! Sometimes when you prepare events for others you don’t realize just how much they will bless you too! I know the Lord used this conference to speak my heart! It was also a blessing to see our church folks unite to help with this conference! They had a wonderful spirit of service as they cooked and served! When the meeting finally came to a close my heart was full! I thank the Lord for His blessings and for allowing us to serve with these people.

Beyond the Cross!

We pray you aThe Crossll had a blessed Resurrection Sunday…a special time to look beyond the cross and focus on the empty tomb! Praise the Lord, He has conquered death and is risen! This day has come to mean different things for people around the world. Like other cultures, the celebration in Cebu begins earlier in the week but there are some very distinct differences in the way they celebrate. The most unique example being their Black Saturday. Black Saturday is a day of death and superstition. On this day they believe Christ is dead so they keep their children home, afraid that if they are hurt there is no God to heal their wounds. Our busy metropolis becomes quiet and almost completely shuts down. Throughout the week, men beat themselves and are crucified, with hopes that God will forgive their sins. That really is the emphasis of their celebration, death. But as we look at the Bible we see that God emphasized something even more important….Christ’s resurrection. If Christ had died as other men and remained in the tomb, there would be no power in the cross. We would have no promise of heaven, no hope beyond the grave. But because Christ rose, He proved that He truly was the Son of God!  He was more than a mere man, He was God.  That is what makes Him so different from any other man or religion. Our God is alive today, waiting patiently for men to realize this truth. Salvation is offered freely to all who would believe and repent of their sins! We pray you all had a wonderful day as you celebrated the resurrection of our Savior!  

Matthew 28:6 “He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

This month North CebuHearts Day Baptist Church hosted a Valentine Banquet for the teens. We call it a banquet…but really it was more like a youth rally! :) The teens had a lot of fun playing crazy games, winning prizes, and watching skits. It was a great opportunity for our young people to invite their friends and tell them about Christ. Our theme was ‘The Gift of Love’ and the message was on the greatest love gift mankind has ever seen-the Lord Jesus Christ! We had 86 teens in attendance…86 teens that heard a clear presentation of the gospel! This banquet has given us an open door to these young people and their families….another wonderful opportunity to reach out and share Christ! Please pray that many teens would be saved!

Each year YOUTH Collagewe set aside one Sunday for the youth of North Cebu Baptist Church. It’s a special day that provides fun and challenging new ways for our teens to serve the Lord. On this day we let them lead our services. Everything! From congregational singing, to ushering, to special music, to preaching…our young people did it all. It was a blessing to see them step out of their comfort zone and participate in the service!  Good job guys!
