Jing is one of our long time staff at Hope for the island. She has been with us since the early pioneering days, thus experiencing her fair share of tests and heartbreaks ministering to people. In face of opposition and challenges we can find ourselves doubting whether our words and service have the desired impact. As with the disciples of Christ there is always a mixed bag of reactions from those on the receiving end of the gospel. God reveals truth to those He is drawing to Himself. There is unspeakable joy that comes when God transforms someone as result of sharing God’s word.
Reymart Pabas pictured with Jing was one of those naughty distracted kids that came in and out of our Kids Ministry many years ago. Reymart did not continue with Youth Ministry and our team lost touch with him. It was a surprise for Jing to see him standing at the pulpit preaching in a church recently. He is now the Youth Pastor in the same village he grew up in. Jing was able to sit down with him after the service to hear of all that God has done in his life. He testified that he came to know Gods love and forgiveness through Hope for the Island. He was drawn to grow in his faith in his youth and committed to study Gods word.
