Dear praying Friends and Family!!!
All went well, praise the LORD!
7,450lbs of rice was given to all the people of our village, Calabogo.
It was a hot day and we were thankful that we were allowed to use the Barangay Basketball Court, and the LORD also sent a cooler breeze all day long!
All the people were thankful for the rice, the Gospel of Luke booklet & Gospel tracts, and we had to say “salamat sa Dios!” (Thank the Lord!) many times, whenever they tried to thanks us…to God be All the Glory!
Thank you all for making this possible!
And,
Thanks for praying with us and for us!
In Him!
Patrick and Karen Carder
