Update on the works of the Lord: Activities from March 24

March 24, I preached in the radio program here in Tuguegarao the topic “Avoid Evil Ways”.

March 25, in our preachers’ bible study, brother Jimmy preached in the morning on “2 Corinthians 10” and in the afternoon he preached “2 Corinthians 11”.

March 26, in our midweek service here at Tuguegarao, brother James Attaban perached on “Mark 9”. This is the first time he preach here since the preachers training that also held here in Tuguegarao. It is good to hear of his improvement and now he is currently preaching at Sta. Maria.

March 28, I went to Palca to distribute bible tracts and also invitations for our bible lectureship. I went from house to house and talk to several people. Many are saying that they will try to come, but as for my experience, when the time comes for the activity, they will not be there. But I still tried to convince them the importance of studying God’s word and the salvation of our souls.

March 30, in our Lord’s day service here at Tuguegarao, I taught in our bible study about “Christian’s fleet” and brother Rody preached in the sermon about “White Throne Judgment and Hell is real”.

In the afternoon at Palca, I preached the same lesson to them about “The Christian’s fleet”. We have five visitors in this service wherein I saw that they are all very attentive.

March 31, we went to Palca for the solemnization of our brother Rodolfo and sister Jane. Brother Robert Rances preached a short sermon while brother Rody solemnized them. I am happy for the newly wed because they are both Christians but unluckily, only sister Jane is the one attending the services while Rodolfo is not. Hope that by marriage, sister Jane will convince him to go back to church.

April 1, in our preachers’ bible study, brother Ronald preached in the morning about “Unity: Agreement and harmony among brethren” and in the afternoon, he preached about “2 Corinthians 12”.

April 2, in our midweek service here at Tuguegarao, brother Jun preached on “Mark 10”.

April 4, we went to Lapogan, Gattaran where brother Joeben Jacobo, Celso Jacobo and Daniel Pasaraba preaches for their Gospel Meeting. The first speakers was brother Efren who preached about “Saved by grace” followed by brother Edgar Licodini who preached about “Eph. 2:11-19” and the last speaker in the morning is brother Geronimo Ganela who preached about “Bag with holes.”

In the afternoon, the lone speaker was brother Rody who preached about “Heed God’s warnings”. After the lesson preached, we extended the invitation and 5 precious souls went in front to confess their faith.

April 5, we had our bible lectureship at Palca. I am a little disappointed with our attendance because many of the brethren are out because of classes in school and work in the office. I thought that everyone will be there because it is a weekend, but no, even those whom I invited to come are not there. When I tried to contact some of them, they said that their child is sick and they are now in the doctor while some say they are out of town.

The first speaker was brother Robert Pader who preached about “How well do you listen?” and followed by brother Rody who preached about “Some things that are temporary”.

April 6, in our Lord’s day service here at Tuguegarao, brother Jerome taught in our bible study about “Disappointments Christians face” and brother Rody preached in the sermon about “Obtaining Salvation”.

In the afternoon at Palca, those whom I invited to come in our bible lectureship attends our Sunday worship. I am happy that they came and are very interested in the lesson I shared. I preached to them about “Consider your ways”, a lesson that teach us to consider all the things we are doing whether it be for Christ or whether it be for our own selves.

When I arrived home, brother Jimmy Domingo contacted me and invite me to join them in preaching to his invites from Lanna. Brother Rody preached to them about “The true Church of Christ”. After sharing the lesson, 9 precious souls confessed their faith and were baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.

April 8, in our preachers bible study, I taught in the morning the lesson about “Human source of authority” wherein I pointed out some facts about what people think regarding their own way of salvation.
