Today was a little special day. We started from the hotel in Manila, thinking that our trip was well organized, and ready to go. It showed that our Internet checking had not gone through, and was not paid for. When we arrived; by the Grace of God, we made it pretty early to the airport to day. But then we had to stand in line at the Ticket office for more than an hour to get our new tickets. We made it just in time for departure. Well up in the air, after a half an hour trip; towards Davao, the Capitan came on the speaker system telling us we had to go back to Manila, because of a technical failure. So that gave us an hour in the air and then we had to go back to where we started.

Greetings again in the most precious name of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have now been in the Philippines for almost a week, and are enjoying a most wonderful time in the Lord. We started services on the same day we arrived, last Friday here in Angeles. We have had services every day, except for last Saturday. Now is the time for the start of the convention, where several visitors from other Churches here in the Philippines will arrive. From to day, Thursday; there will be two services every day through Sunday. The spiritual barometer in the services are very good. The presence of the Lord is so wonderful. Through the week we have seen a joyful expression in the believers. The worship service with songs and praise does lift everyone to a wonderful level of expectation.
