Dear Brethren in the Lord: 
"Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the Lord their 
God, and David their king; and shall fear the Lord and his goodness in 
the latter days." (Hosea 3: 5) 
 
In last month's report, the brethren said that Sister Grace Glorioso 
followed the Lord in baptism last April 21, 2008. They chose the Bulihan 
River in Silang, Cavite for the place of baptism. This sister now attends 
the Bible teaching at the church. We thank the Lord for His loving mercy 
and faithfulness. "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into 
death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of 
the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." (Romans 6:4) 
 
The Bible study in Silang, Cavite moves on every Saturday afternoon. The 
last meeting was attended by Bro. Dharren Valenzuela, Sister Anavir 
Santos, Sister Leah Candelario, Jaiseree Candelario, Jorvan Bordallo and 
Jairuyleen Nacino. Paolo, Mikmik and Ana Marquez continue to come to the 
prayer 
meeting every Wednesday at GMA. Bro. J. Glorioso attended the worship 
service in Cavite last Sunday. He comes from Cotabato Province in 
Mindanao, located in the southern part of the country. 
 
Maritess, Boboy, Mil, Marlon, Rowena and some teenagers came to join the 
brethren in the Sunday worship at Maybunga. The Bible teaching at their 
place in Jenny's compound-Floodway area is scheduled every Friday 
evening. The other church visitors were Rizza, Rodilyn and Shirley. 
The participants in the Bible study held recently at Calauag, Quezon 
Province were Susan, Turing, Michelle Aling Ading, the Buhatin family, 
Molina family, Datu Pomay, Haidy, Marites and Domeng. Calauag, Quezon is 
located south of Manila. It is about 12 hrs. round trip by bus from 
Cubao, Metro Manila. 
The church at Mahinhin welcomed some visitors in their Sunday worship 
service. They were Jocelyn, Jenifer, Ricky, and Bro. Arman Del Rosario. 
Mang Arman joins the Bible study every Wednesday at 5:00 in the 
afternoon. The weekly Bible teaching continues at the Dividend Homes in 
Dolores, Taytay; Cainta area; and, at the Parola-Floodway with Jocelyn, 
Jomar, Jovelyn, Jane, Jonalyn, Riza, Aling Myrna and Weng, who did not 
own a Bible and to whom the Mahinhin church donated one. The brethren 
there are working to find Tagalog Bibles for several young people, who 
have requested them because they cannot afford to buy their own. Although 
English is widely spoken in the Philippines, especially on the island of 
Luzon, most people are more comfortable reading the Word of God in their 
native tongue of Tagalog. 
We thank the Lord for the brethren at Grace Baptist Church in Mt.Vernon, 
Georgetown, KY; South Irvine Baptist Church, Irvine, KY; Bryan Station 
Baptist Church, Lexington, KY; Ocoonita Missionary Baptist Church in 
Jonesville, VA; and, the other brethren from the Lord's Churches of like 
faith and order, for your continued financial support and most especially 
for your faithful prayers in our behalf and the Lord's work. May we grow 
stronger in God's grace as we wait for His soon return. "Looking for that 
blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour 
Jesus Christ." (Titus 2:13) 
 
In His glorious service, 
 
Bro. Ed Quetua
