A LIST OF MINISTRIES YOU CAN SUPPORT

Pastor Kelly Backstrom sharing the Gospel at Mabasa

The year-end is approaching, and many will be considering their favorite charity. I pray you will consider us, and support one of our ministries.

 

When you designate your gift, just let me know at steve.bragg123@gmail.com  I will get your gift to your designated ministry. If your gift is a general gift, its primary use is planting new churches and/or a necessary need that may arise.

 

Starting a New Church: Our primary ministry is planting new churches in a remote area of the Philippines where there is no other Christian church. Its total cost including launching the church, building a church building and parsonage, and 1 year salary for the pastor is $5,800.

 

Adopt a Pastor and Family: After the first year salary, the pastor and family still need financial support. $100 per month, $1,200 per year will support and pastor and his family. They serve the most remote and poorest of areas.

 

Student Scholarship: $25 per month makes the difference of allowing a high school student to complete school.

 

Travel and food Allowance for Bible College Students. Our Bible college students get free education from Asian Theological Seminary on the island of Boracay. We provide their travel and food allowance, monthly, to and from for only $25 per month. These are students with a heart to serve. Many of our pastors also attend for continuing education. Without the help of a travel and food allowance, most would not be able to attend.

 

Child and Care Ministry: This is an emergency fund used to help children in distress. Sometimes we help with medical, or food, or housing.

 

River of Love Christian Radio Program: Pastor Alejo Alagos, our very own evangelist, has a popular Christian radio program. It’s on once a week and reaches one third of the Philippines. Our hope and prayer is to reach all of the Philippines with the gospel through this ministry.

 

I pray our Lord has prepared your heart to help in this blessed ministry.

ADOPT A PASTOR AND FAMILY

Steve, Alejo, JiJi, JoJo, Kelly

My Dear Grace Chapel Partners RRCP,

 

ADOPTED A PASTOR AND HIS FAMILY MINISTRY FOR ONLY $100 PER MONTH.

 

As you know, we are planting new churches at as amazing pace. I believe this could not be done without our Lord’s blessing. This past year we have planted 5 new churches.

 

Many have helped in the funding of these churches. Built into the funding of our churches is the pastor’s first year salary. Our plan was that, within that year, the church would become self-sufficient. However, we are planting churches in the most remote and poorest areas of the Philippines. Our pastors need more help than just the first year of support for himself and his family.

 

As a result, my heart is to start the Adopted a Pastor and His Family Ministry.

 

$100 PER MONTH WILL SUPPLY A SALARY ABLE TO SUPPORT A PASTOR AND HIS FAMILY.

 

Pastor Gaudencio Valdez Jr. (JoJo) his wife Conception (JiJi) and their 5 year son Jabez the first family you can adopt.

 

They will be moving to one of our new churches at Esparar. They are moving by faith. Their prayer was to locate to Esparar because they have family there. We are praying to start building the church and parsonage by March 2013. Pastor JoJo has 6 years’ experience as an evangelist and pastor. Sister JiJi is an experienced worship leader. Please pray for their success in ministering to the people of Barangay Esparar.

 

Please let me know if you will adopt this pastor and family.

 

Your Partner in this ministry to the Filipino people.
