Happy New Year from Dapitan City! As we close out what I sincerely hope was the craziest year of our lives, we look forward with excitement and anticipation to what God is going to do in and through our church and ministry in 2021. The last [...]
When the lockdown began this past March, I had this strange idea that maybe my life would slow down a little bit. Well . . . THAT HASN’T HAPPENED! We have had more newsworthy events take place in the last two months than I could possibly fi [...]
