PHILIPPINES:
Like many of our partnerships, Reaching Philippines for Christ came to PIE in 1989 as an established ministry looking for fellowship and assistance. RPC supports six faithful, hardworking pastors and their growing churches on a program that helps the churches to take over their pastor’s support as they are able. RPC works with Virgilio Olaer, a Filipino who is supported through PIE by churches and individuals, in the USA. As a church planter, he has started many of the churches PIE /RPC has helped over the years.
In addition to his work in Leyte, Brother Olaer regularly travels to Manila, the capital of the Philippines, to help plant a new church there. This would be the n ...

Reaching Philippines for Christ
Warm greetings from the Philippines, to all our PIEI partners and supporters
God is so good to our ministry here in Leyte. Last Sunday we baptized 9 new believers in the Ormoc City area where one of our churches-Lighthouse Christian Ministry is located. This church is now pastured by my son Vincent Olaer. Their church is growing rapidly so much so that they don’t have anymore space to accommodate future growth so they are fervently praying for an available lot to buy & build a brand new multi-purpose facility. Their members have started raising funds for this purpose.
Please pray for me too, because last Friday, when I was cleaning our driveway, I stepped on a piece of plywood and slipped, and my head hit the ground real hard. I dislocated my right shoulder, and my right arm was badly swollen. I went to a Chiropractor the next day Saturday, and he was able to fix my shoulder and arm. It was a very painful ordeal, I almost lost consciousness. But I thank God that I am feeling better now and am able to move my right shoulder and arm, although I am still feeling some pain,. But I was still able to preach in Paglaum Baptist Church in Kambonggans last Sunday,
Please continue to pray for the needs that we shared with you last October, especially the 7 motorcycles that we are hoping to buy for the use of our pastors and evangelistic team members. Lord willing and if the needed funds come in, we would like to buy some of them by January 2008. Also for my wife’s health, funds for our outreach ministries and building projects, safety during our travels to the different mission points for preaching, training, and bible studies, and growth of our existing churches.
My wife and I are going to Manila on December 17, to spend Christmas with our children, there. We will be back in Leyte on January 2
