Our Landlord, on the right
Thank the Lord for miracles, small and great! As we serve the Lord at North Cebu Baptist Church, we have tried to be a light outside the church as well-to people close to home. Our neighborhood has watched us settle in and commit ourselves to the Lord. They quit asking us about our destination when we leave home and smile, “Going to church again?” We love our landlord. She is a sweet lady who has completely devoted her life to Catholicism. Like so many people living in Cebu she wonders what makes a Baptist different from a Catholic. Over time we have tried to show her Christ’s words, “I am the way…No man cometh unto the Father BUT BY ME.” and “Not by works of righteousness which we have done…” it is by Christ’s work alone that we can go to heaven someday. After living here almost two years our landlord shocked us by attending our “I Love Jesus” Valentine Banquet. It was a joy to have her in church! During the service she heard a clear presentation of the gospel. We can only thank God for this tiny miracle and pray that she will be saved!
