Home From the Philippines

December 20, 2013

 

Dear family, brethren, and friends,

 

By the good grace of God Keith Greer and I landed at the Louisville, KY airport this afternoon about 1:30 PM, thus completing our three week trip to the Philippines.  We know many prayers have been offered on our behalf since we left and especially after we both had some health problems, but we are better in every way and thankful to be home!

 

It was a privilege to work alongside many faithful Filipino saints again and to have opportunities to see their faith, hope, and love demonstrated in many ways.  It was also a privilege to act as messengers for saints here in the U.S. and in other countries to deliver benevolence to brethren suffering from the devastation of typhoon Haiyan (named Yolanda in the Philippines). We visited suffering saints in Leyte and in northern Cebu.  They are pressing forward by faith in God.  It should be noted that Filipino brethren also sent benevolence to the affected areas.

 

Please forgive me if I am slow in corresponding because in addition to a mountain of work waiting for attention, next week I will spend time with my family.  Later I plan to send a full report about the trip.

 

May God bless you all to have a happy holiday season with your loved ones and a very Happy New Year!

 

In Christian love,

Ron Halbrook
