Blessed day, I'm Pastor Manuel Opanda of Christ In You Pulilan Church. Our outreach ministry at Sitio Malalim, Baras, Rizal began with an Adult Bible Study. A few months passed, and we felt a burden for the children in that area who might know the Lord. We planned to start a Children's Ministry, so we talked with Ptr. Jr Laxa to see if we could partner with the Kapatid Ministry to support the children's food. By the grace of the Lord, we became their partner in this work, marking the start of the Feeding Ministry.
Every Saturday, we go to the Baras area to share the Word of God and feed 15 to 25 children and young people.
As of now, the challenges we have encountered are: (1) The heat index, especially since we started in April. (2) Limited resources, such as modules or Bible story kits, for teaching children.
It is a great thing to be part of KMI in supporting the Feeding Ministry. When I started this ministry, it was by faith. Thanks to KMI for being ready to help the other churches. Now the church is more promoted and recognized in the community.
My Prayer Requests
- For more children to come to know the Lord, together with their families.
- For safety in travel.
