RECENT TRIBAL MINISTRY STORY

Early in the morning of June 26 we left for San Fernando, Bukidnon. We passed by Valencia City at about 7:00 A.M.. One of our youth, I let him solved the image problem of the LCD projector and the language in the new computer. Before noon we proceeded to Barangay Mabuhay, San Fernando. When we got there, we were advised that the first night of evangelistic meeting is in Sitio Balaas, way up in the mountain. We left the Van in Sitio Balao, due to broken bridges. So, we hiked barefooted. When I walked about one kilometer, a member told me to ride on his horse. Quite a long time already that I did not ride on a horse. It was exciting.

Two of the three team members hiked with another horse with the generator, and two bags(wires, amplifier, tracts and etc.). Good that there are Manubo Volunteers to help us in the transportation and in the arrangement of the meeting Hall. The last time that they were visited with my Gospel Team was in 1993. That time we used Singer Reel Projector and there was no road. Now it has road but halfway no gravel. First night meeting were having many problems like rainshowers. Two persons who had unsolved conflicts met, there was a fight in the meeting hall. One was hit with a stick and the Bolo was ready for stabbing. There were drops of blood. So, I stopped the show. When the two were gone, we continued. Also, we almost run-out of gasoline of the generator. Almost all attendees professed to Receive Christ as their Savior and Lord. We are so happy.

Sitio Balaas’ population is 50% Manubo Tigwa. Their Language there differ from Western Bukidnon Manubo of Pangantucan. Only Seventh Day Adventists and Roman Catholics have churches there. There are three Families who are grace members but we have no church building. We have so many sympathizers . We have a land there already to be donated by a member but we need wood, nails and GI sheets. We need money for the chainsaw to cut trees. Peoples' livelihood are in their plantation of Bananas,

ginger, fruit trees and corn. It is situated on a higher ground, a cold place for the residents of Cagayan de Oro like me. I took a bath there once in the period of three days but my companion not brave enough to try the spring water..The second night of evangelistic meeting was fine, no big problems. The Sitio Leader/Captain professed to Receive Christ. Attendees were laughing when we showed all the photos that we took and showed it on the big screen. 3

RECENT TRIBAL MINISTRY STORY (Continuation)

Elder Joe Mata, the brother of Pastor Gonzalo Mata.. He stayed with TCM as well his relatives. His wife is Manubo Tigwa. He happened to hiked for two days from San Fernando to Sulit River area. The place is rich in Free gold and natural resources. He found out some foreigners in the forest, Mischelle (American) and Mary Ann(British) who lived there as Missionaries. They believe, they are Bible translators.

The Mabuhay Evangelistic Meeting was exciting. In October we will have the groundbreaking for the new Church building there. The former Church members in the area are happy of this move. The Manubo Pastors in Kalagangan are happy that we preached to their relatives especially in Salumayag where ever since they did not preach to them. They wondered that why we were able to endured the hiking to the place of Datu Bantulisan, the Supreme Datu, where there are 11 Datus under him.

We have not entered yet to the following Municipalities/towns: Claveria, Malitbog, Lantapan, Cabanglasan, Wao(Lanao), Kitaotao and Damulog. Impasug-ong and Talakag. Talakag Mountains have still vast forest where the tribal people live. We have still many things to do. On the Subanen tribe we conducted evangelistic meetings in Marupay, Sindangan, Zamboanga del Norte., The cellphone that I used, I cannot retrieve the photos. Maybe I need a Micro Memory Card Reader. I would like to share that to you in the next issue., to rejoice with us of the many souls that came to know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. These are all for now. May God will richly bless us in all our endeavor for His glory and honor.

FROM THE PASTOR'S HEART ( Continuation)

have nothing to offer. If we ask the Lord, He’ll give us the wisdom to know

what to say or do as we come alongside others.

To become an encourager, we must first give others our time and our

undivided attention (1 Thessalonians 2:17-20). Face-to-face meetings are the

most effective, but we can also reach out through phone calls, emails, letters, or

even text messages. However, I’ve often seen people sitting together in silence

at a restaurant with their heads bent over their phones. That’s not the time for

texting. When we’re with people, we need to give them our full attention and

listen mindfully. How else will we know what’s in their hearts and how to

support them?

Second, we can encourage others by helping to meet their needs (2

Corinthians 1:5-7). This might come in the form of comforting those who

hurt, affirming those who struggle with low self-esteem, spending time with

the lonely, or simply meeting someone’s practical needs. For example, if I

didn’t have a few staff members who come to my rescue every so often, my

computer would be a disaster.

Third, Christians are called to build each other up spiritually (Romans

1:11-12). When people are struggling to trust the Lord in hard times, they need

someone to remind them of God’s constant presence, unfailing promises, or

unlimited power in their situation. Sometimes it’s helpful to point out an

applicable verse of Scripture that gives God’s perspective, instructions, or

comfort. Another aspect of spiritual encouragement is warning someone who’s

headed down the wrong path and offering loving correction. Finally, encouragement is a motivator (Hebrews 10:24-25). I remember a number of

times when my mother supported me after I didn’t do very well in a particular subject

at school. She never shamed or condemned me for a bad grade but simply encouraged

me to do my best. Her advice has stayed with me all these years, motivating me to give

my best effort in whatever I do.

If you, too, have been encouraged by your mother, why not let her know how much she

has impacted your life and how thankful you are for her love and devotion? Then

follow her example, much like Paul followed in Barnabas’ footsteps, and become a son

or daughter of encouragement in your family, workplace, and church. The Lord will

richly bless both you and those you encourage. You never know what a difference your

gracious words or actions might make in someone’s life.

Prayerfully yours,

Charles F. Stanley

FROM THE PASTOR'S HEART

To encourage someone is simply to let them know they’re not alone.

Have you ever wondered what kind of person God wants you to be? Although

our talents, personalities, abilities, and backgrounds may differ, the Scriptures

reveal some basic traits the Lord desires for all of us. Every one of us is called

to develop a heart for encouraging others (1 Thessalonians 5:11). To

encourage someone is simply to let them know they’re not alone, to go to

their side and walk with them on their journey. The Christian life is not one

of isolation and independence but of relationship and interconnection.

Although some of us are more outgoing than others, we can each express

encouragement in our own unique ways. We may have no idea what an impact

our gracious words, sound advice, or acts of kindness may have on another

person.

To encourage someone is simply to let them know they’re not alone. When I was in first grade, I overheard my teacher comment to someone else, “I

like Charles.” She probably never knew I heard her remark, let alone how

much it meant to me, but I still remember the way I felt at that moment and the

encouragement it gave me during a lonely period in my life. Another person

who impacted me was my Sunday school teacher. Even after I’d begun

attending a different church, whenever he saw me delivering newspapers, he’d

pull his car over and talk with me for a while. Then he’d buy a paper from me

for about twice the price even though he had one delivered to his home. We

didn’t discuss anything important, but it made me feel significant that he cared

enough to go out of his way to talk to me. We probably all have similar

memories of people who either deliberately or unknowingly encouraged us.

One of the prime examples of an encourager in Scripture is Barnabas. His

name means “son of encouragement,” and that’s exactly what he was. He’s

first mentioned because of his eagerness to help the believers in Jerusalem.

After selling a piece of property, he gave the money to the apostles so they

could distribute it to whoever was in need (Acts 4:36-37). On another

occasion, he brought Saul, a former persecutor of believers, into the church,

assuring them that he was now a Christian (Acts 9:26-27). Barnabas could

never have known the importance of this one act of kindness. Eventually, the

infamous Saul would become the great apostle Paul who encouraged countless

others as he traveled around the world planting churches.

God wants to use each of us at various times and in different ways to encourage others. God wants to use each of us at various times and in different ways to encourage

others. This means we must be alert to people the Lord brings across our path

and make ourselves available, even when it’s inconvenient or we feel as if we
