OUR HISTORY

1983 to 1988
Cotabato City, Island of Mindanao - a predominantly Moslem area. During this term we saw established:

• Bible Baptist Church - Pastor: Feliciano Bernardo
  
• Citadel Bible Baptist Institute
  
• Five missions through the Cotabato City church
  
• Three College campus ministries
  
• Two Jail ministries
  
• Radio ministry
  

1991 to 1995

• Solid Rock Bible Baptist Church, Pigkawayan, north of Cotabato City - Pastor: Ronaldo del Rio
• Kampilan Bible Baptist Church, Awang, Maguindanao. A military church reaching men of the 37th Infantry Battalion, 6th Division, Philippine Army - Pastor: Jessie Llanura
• Mindanao Baptist Literature Outreach, headed by Mrs. Donna Walley & Mrs. Felicia Llanura - provided 1,050 Sunday School lessons, D.V.B.S. materials, and missionary stories (all printed and illustrated by hand) to 25 churches and 37 missions. Reaching over 5,000 children each week.
• Bible Translation: translating and computerizing the Authorized, King James Version into the Subanon dialect - working with Pastor Edison Ocay, Lighthouse Baptist Church, Kalamansig.

OUR GOALS

• over 1.5 million people
• 3 SBC works
• only 1 independent Baptist Church

• Plant new works in Kiamba, Maasim, and Maitum
• Reach the T'boli Tribe, located in the mountains
• Continue the Mindanao Baptist Literature ministry. Mrs. Walley will work with Mrs. Felyn Bao to supply literature to over 100 churches who have requested materials. They will be translating into Tagalog, Cebuano, and Ilongo.
• Continue working with Pastor Edison Ocay in his Subanon translation of the Authorized Version.

OUR NEEDS

• Prayer, wisdom, and continued financial support
• Safety and traveling mercies during our furlough and time of reporting to the churches.
• God's hand of protection upon the pastors and workers in the Philippines, and for ourselves when we return. Mindanao has for many years experienced volatile political problems with the Moslem secessionist rebellion.
• Additional monthly support of $500. The peso has devalued over 17% in the last 4 years. The cost of living will be greater in the new area.
• $3,500 to pay off medical bills. This is an urgent need because we are paying them off with funds we need to live on here in the United States.
• $3,500 for return air travel.
• $12,000 for the purchase of a reliable vehicle upon our return.
• Additional funds to purchase appliances in the Philippines. Our old appliances are from 1979, and have quit!!
• Authorized, King James Version Bibles - in good condition.
• Pray that the Visa requirements will not change.

THANK YOU...
