Ifugao Exposure
The husband and wife team of Eduardo and Estrella Gonsay submitted to us this report:
They visited a total of 195 houses, witnessed to 231 individuals, had 10 converts, started 7 bible study groups with 12 more individuals scheduled for follow-up work from their home base Nueva Viscaya to Quirino and Ifugao Province. At the same time, the Lord is giving them more opportunities to share GX.
The old woman is Dummulao Dulinayan. She understands only the native tongue called Lag-ao, which is also the name of the tribe she belongs to. She accepted God’s gift of salvation.
Sister Estrella gives out GX Comics after sharing her testimony. Inigupi and Inhabion Mahicon are from a tribe called Banawal.
Eden Jacalne and Malou Tayoni
In Cabuyao, Laguna, they met Rodolfo Pulikit who is very sick with cancer of the lungs. He is thin and pale. They shared to him the good news of salvation and prayed together. He surrendered his life God. The next day, God took him home.
Aside from sharing the gospel through GX, they helped a Christian family look for a church which could help them grow spiritually. Still in Cabuyao, Laguna, Pastor Felix Manalo and some members of his church The Community Christian Church went with the duo for door-to-door evangelism in Centennial Subd. It was a fruitful afternoon. They hold regular bible studies every Wednesday at 3 p.m. as a result more and more are getting to know Jesus Christ as personal Lord and Savior.
Bro. Romy, Lisa, Gary
There are two existing cell groups which were established through GX. One is in Area 1- Dasmarinas the other is in Imus. They shared GX Ministry to Pastor Albert of El Adonai Church in Kawit, Cavite. They will work hand in hand in door-to door evangelism.
Pastor Francis and wife, Gloria
They were guests in a youth fellowship in Pampanga. Not all the attendees were Christians. Because of GX Comics which was awarded to bible quiz winners, more young people were encouraged to attend regular bible studies. Students of a school in this area (IRTS) requested for copies of GX comics for their church outreach program.
Pablo and Vangie Liwanag
A change of attitude, this was what happened to a young man who was so rude to his family and to Pablo and Vangie everytime they hold bible study in their home. He made sure the volume of the radio was at its loudest, he banged doors, and made all sorts of distractions. The whole bible study group asked the Lord to change his heart. Prayer really works! Now he is friendly and tries to be the perfect host by preparing snacks for the bible study group. They were able to share the gospel using GX comics to watermelon vendors, laundry soap vendors, farmers and beggars. Because our comics is very easy to understand, response is always positive.
One Calling
The whole team took time out to rest in a shaded spot to escape the burning heat of the sun.
Combined efforts of Bro. Chito Tolosa, Pastor Obet of Sanctuary of Praise(SOP), Lorie de Sena (SOP), GX Team- Nen de Sena, Connie de Luna, Francis de Sena, Malou, Eden, Tess, Adela, Lisa and Romy, and a volunteer worker named Gary who is from Lisa’s church.
After two months of regular door-to-door evangelistic and follow-up work in Sampaguita Village in Trece Martirez, Cavite, almost all the households welcomed GX! Pastor Obet is very happy and thankful because his church attendance increased as a result of the outreach.
Acts 16:31 says, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved, you and your household.” This is the challenge we leave behind to all the residents of Sampaguita Village.
“All heaven shall praise your miracles, O Lord; myriads of angels will praise you for your faithfulness.” – Psalms 89:5
