Mel, (Me) Kim, Jo in our RAN

I'm so glad to have my SMCI co-workers serving with me in an RAN! It's always been SMCI's vision to see people saved, discipled and sent OUT into the world! Mel, Jo, and I each began our ministry years with SMCI. Mel was saved, discipled, trained and mentored through SMCI, Jo was discipled, mentored and trained through SMCI, and I was mentored and trained with SMCI. Now our amazing God has led us to once again serve Him together. I thank Him for the wonderful years spent with SMCI and the invaluable lessons learned which I am still applying every day as I serve him HERE!

NETCASTERS SOULWINNING COURSE 2011

Praise the Lord for a fruitful and successful NETS last Oct.23-28 held at Hope Mountain in Davao City. This year we had the biggest delegates coming from 5 cities such as GenSan, Digos, Davao, Panabo, Tagum and Mintal District. We had blessed with 42 trainees and 20 trainors who also undergone HERMENUETICS CLASS. In our catching and catching (OJT-actual soulwinning) for 5 days, we had the total of 223 gospel opportunities, 536 had heard the gospel, and 437 professed Jesus Christ as their Savior. As a result, we had heard many open doors for home bible studies and even students trained were eager to preach the gospel to their loved ones.

To God be the Glory!

CEBU NETS Seminar Experience: A Testimony

2011-06-16T02:42:00.000-07:00

The NETS was a blessed experience. It was the very first evangelism training-seminar that I attended. The Netcaster's Approach was very new to me, the material was very thorough, concise and complete. Its a very good tool for full presentation of the gospel. My favorite part during lecture time is when the trainees are to ask questions, share experiences and give suggestions because it is when I learn more. It was not only an evangelism training but a time of renewing of our commitment to sharing the wonderful message of the gospel, and also a time of fellowship with fellow Christians who share the same burden of sharing God's love.

SMCI Revival 2011 Experience: A Testimony

2011-06-12T23:43:00.000-07:00

Here is a testimony of what the Lord did in the life of Karen T. Canales (from CDO) after the 4^th SMCI Revival Camp, held last May 16-21, 2011 at the Calvary Chapel Training Center, Dumaguete City:

“My desire is to walk with Christ and be my best for Him, but old habits of sin nag at me. How can I ditch the old and put on the new self? How can I be comfortable with a holy lifestyle?

It was only until I understood the Spirit-filled life and the Surrendered life through the series of preaching during the revival camp. I learned that it is an act of will to choose to let God have and use every key in my life-- my dreams, my ambitions, my loved ones, my desires, my bad habits, etc. Now, thanks be to God, I have a proper view of Him, and I found myself ready for action. By the grace of God, I am ready to initiate in our world and make a difference. The clearer my vision of God, the clearer my vision will be of myself and life. Hope is my key ingredient of sanity in an insane world. I find hope in God’s Word. It is my prayer that I will continue to live for Him and not for myself. ”

**Karen is already a believer when we met her in CDO last February 2011. She got saved in October 2008. After the Revival Camp, she expressed her heart to volunteer in helping us in the ministry here in SMCI Cagayan de Oro City. We praise the Lord for what He has done in the life of this soul! To him be the glory!

What The Lord Has Been Doing In CDO

2010-10-27T23:42:00.000-07:00

By Ms. Roxanne Ville Serra

We set foot on Cagayan de Oro City on a very sunny Saturday- August 28, 2010. Now, it has been almost two months; time passes swiftly. We look back at these early beginnings, and we can say that the Lord has been so good to us. He is and will always be.

Before we reached CDO, the Lord led us to use the “You’re Worth Waiting For: Abstinence Education” as an evangelistic, ground-breaking tool after much prayer. We have been preparing as a team, expectant to see God’s mighty hand to enable us to declare the gospel boldly as we ought, and to see souls saved. The Lord opened a total of 11 Gospel opportunities in 5 schools—two high schools, two colleges, and one university.

These were the opportunities the Lord opened within September 17 to October 20, 2010:

SCHOOL	DATE
Misamis Oriental General Comprehensive High School (MOGCHS)	September 17 and 24
Liceo de Cagayan University (LdCU)	September 28, October 4 and 6
Cagayan de Oro College	October 4 and 5
Southern Philippines College (SPC)	October 12
Angelicum Learning Center	October 20 (2 sessions)

The following is an estimation (based on the decision slips we have collected) of the total number of souls who have heard the gospel:

Number of souls who heard the Good News: 915

Number of professions: 524

Number of souls interested to join Bible study: 184

Each opportunity was a unique experience of God’s enabling grace. We can share one story to another about how the Lord displayed His glory as He answered our prayers for each session we have had within about a month of just sowing seeds of the gospel and at the same time upholding moral recovery through abstinence education by the grace of God.

SEEING THE NEED AND MEETING A SEEKING SOUL

One particular experience we would like to share as a team was the YWWF opportunity on October 4, 2010 in Liceo de Cagayan University. The Director for Community Development, Ma’am Fritzie Estoque, was the one who pushed this activity through her office. She required all her NSTP students to attend the three sessions that were scheduled as part of her curriculum.

After the abstinence discussion, the gospel was preached. MJ flashed photos of empty people seeking happiness at the wrong, in the wrong ways, and with the wrong people. When gave the invitation, many students prayed the simple prayer of faith. We distributed the tracts, purity pledges, and decision slips. After which was a lengthy open forum to entertain questions. Then the forum ended. We were able to talk with Ma’am Fritz and found out that sexual immorality is so rampant that there are 34 reported AIDS positive victims, and 16 come from CDO. She also shared more incidents of teenage prostitution occurring in public schools both elementary and high school. I was honestly shocked by the darkness hiding itself behind the lights and sounds of this busy city. And through that talk, I saw God’s guidance. I said to myself, “That’s why the Lord led us to use this tool for evangelism and that’s why He has been opening many doors for YWWF here because He knows this need.” This displayed God’s mercy upon this city. An evidence of His authority over all peoples and places.

Yet, while I was talking to Ma’am Fritz, the Lord was doing something in the life of a young man who made a decision for Jesus. He talked to MJ and expressed his gratitude for the good news that was preached. He told MJ that the photos that were flashed reflect his empty heart. “I am empty. I am searching for inner peace and happiness. That’s me,” he said. And he could not explain the joy he had upon making that decision that night. And the day after that encounter with him, he visited us at the center. MJ was able to spend time with him, just listening to him pouring out his heart and talking about his life before he made that decision for Jesus. Then he became a frequent guest at the apartment. We rejoice for the life of this truth-seeker. Please pray for him as he is now experiencing some testings, which he has not yet specifically opened to us. Please pray for God’s preservation and his spiritual growth.

PRAYERS SOUGHT

Please continue to pray for us as we continue to break grounds as we are starting this new work in CDO. Please pray for fruits that will remain, a core group to be discipled and nurtured in the faith, and abounding love for Him and the souls of men.

We are excited to seeing more of God’s wonder-working power to transform lives and to advance His kingdom.

“For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.”
