New Building in Cabanatuan City

Brother Celestino “Jhun” Bautista is a sound stable steady saint and longtime gospel preacher who lives at 128 BRIONES VILLAGE, SAN ISIDRO, CABANATUAN CITY, NUEVA ECIJA 3100 in the Philippines.  Jim McDonald, faithful preacher in Lufkin, TX, has known Jhun for many years and has full confidence in him.  I have visited Jhun and the brethren meeting in his home in Cabanatuan City, and we have worked together.  They have outgrown his house and sacrificed to start a church building, but their efforts have been stalled by lack of funds.  These pictures show the present state of the construction as of January 2012.  We hope to find funds to help these brethren, a prime example of helping those who first help themselves.
