I am Pastor Juan C. Palsimon of Christian Baptist Church Naguilian Isabela, who is very grateful that we were given the opportunity to be part of the Livelihood Program of Kapatid Ministry led by Pastor Titus and Ma’am Beth. The mushroom business is what we chose to do, which at first we had a hard time with, especially in making mushroom bags or fruiting bags, which took us the night to figure out how to mix the substrate properly and put it in the bags. Now with God’s strength and wisdom, we have memorized how to blend it, and I am thankful for that.

I thank the Lord because we're already earning money in the mushroom business, being able to set aside tithes, seed money, and the love gifts of the people who help our business that sometimes they don't want to accept, and sometimes we also give them of mushrooms.

The prayer of faith indeed becomes a challenge to the brethren in the church, that nothing is impossible with the Lord. Through this livelihood program, our daily needs are met. Now I can sell to the neighbors, at school through sis. Katrina and the church members. I want to thank the Lord for his goodness in our lives as well as in the livelihood project that he continues to entrust us with.
