As a child I attended the Kid’s Ministry at Hope for the Island. I won’t forget the time when Kuya Derek and Ate Jenn came here in my town of Burgos. I would always watch them from a far and follow them. Slowly I have more courage to approach them. It is not an accident that God allowed me to meet them. God has a plan in it all. Even when I am 14 years old I attend Kids Ministry. I am not shy to attend even though I am the oldest. I started to assist with the other kids before there was an assistant program.

Youth Ministries
We always try to keep things fresh and new with the youth because it is easy for them to get bored and distracted by influences in town. There are many youth that surprise us because although shy in personality they are bold when it comes to the Lord. Many are an encouragement and example to the others by the way they share testimony during our fellowship time. When youth share their insights from the Word or pray during our time together or for others it challenges those who are observing. There are some that have been attending for so long but never seem to respond. Sometimes we can feel discouraged or that they are not listening. Even if they are a distraction sometimes, we always welcome them and pray for them. Last week we were encouraged to never give up because one male youth who has come for a long time finally accepted Christ! We thank God for the opportunity to share His love that we encountered and to praise Him. (more…)
