AUGUST FAMILY OUTREACH

With Grateful Hearts for Your Service To you Sirs Rommel, Xerxes, Christian, Kiko, Castillo, Mams Eunice, Jen, Carol, Avie, Che, Scarlet, our dear Sandigang Alab Family, We can never thank you enough for your generous love and kindness expressed in serving and blessing our less privileged families in Brgy. Montecillo last Sunday. The families remain deeply touched and overwhelmed by the way you poured out your time, strength, and resources, sharing not only food and gifts but also your genuine love, humility, and honesty through your life stories and testimonies. These left a lasting imprint in their hearts, reminding them of God’s unfailing presence and unconditional love. Your dedication as Navy Reservists, going beyond duty to embody compassion and faith in action, is truly inspiring. You did not just bring assistance—you brought hope, dignity, and the assurance that THEY are not forgotten. May the Lord, who sees your every act of service, richly reward you and your families with His favor, protection, and abundant blessings. Truly, you have been a shining light of Christ’s love in our community. With deepest gratitude and prayers, Celing, Lorraine, and FHL family

SISTERS WON "THE BEST IN KEYBORDERING" AWARD with certificate and free laptop! I am the mother of these two girls named Kristine and Alexa that were given the opportunity to join the Typing Club 4 years ago. Mommy Lorraine taught my children how to type. To be honest, it is really expensive to have someone teach typing or learn things on computers, but because of the Lord's blessing, that He gave the FHL Kids Ranch tutored my kids for free, without asking anything in return. Both my kids also learned how to read/memorize BIBLE verses too. I also remembered that when they type, they sometimes come home with bread, school supplies, sometimes money because of the reward and sometimes I don't have to buy their school supplies because of what the ranch already gave them. The Lord is very good because there are people who are used for people like us that cannot provide all the needs of our children. I am very grateful because of the laptop given to them so that they can continue their typing skills. I always say that FHL Kids Ranch is not all about financial help, but mostly on our spiritual life. My children have learned a lot. Thank you very much!! Joona Cay

*We are so encouraged to hear how the ranch has positively impacted their development and growth after consistently typing after school for 4 years. We stopped the typing lessons at the ranch because I'm busy caring for my mother but we continue the KeyBoarders club with 9 other centers around the Philippines.

KeyBoarding Bible Club

I believe that learning to type properly at a young age is useful and a very important skill. We started 4 years ago during the pandemic and had 200 students. When school started and the kids became busy, we reached out to 8 different centers in the Philippines. The picture above are the consistent KeyBoarders that received a personalized towel for Christmas. Testimony of Miguelito

The Typing Club taught me how to type properly through daily lessons every afternoon after class in my free time. A lot has changed because I didn't know how to type back then. I want to thank the Lord because of this blessing He gave me to learn how to type and I hope I can use this skill (typing) when I grow up and get a job. I thank the Lord for everything!

Miguelito always wins the award for the fastest in typing (54 wpm)

Mom is back in the Philippine!

This picture is in the Philippines with my kids at the ear doctor. So they have no excuse not to hear me hehehe. Mom's been here 3 months already!

When we went to Branson, Missouri Oct/Nov 2024 to attend Mom's 90th Birthday and her passport, airline ticket and finances all fell in place for her to return back with us. The Philippines is where she wanted to spend her remaining years. She took a fall in December but has fully recovered. Please keep us in your prayers for strength and good health. It's a blessing, honor a privilege to have my mom with me at this point and time in our lives.

Meal with a Deal

Feeding Program

We are going on our 3rd year feeding the elementary children from our community that attend the public school. The parents sign in with their children every Sunday before the Fellowship starts and at the end of the service, we give them a meal ticket with a bible verse to memorize for the week. We feed from 50 to 75 kids a week. The parents hear the Word of God along with their children and the blessings follow.

Rice for Christ has been ongoing for 2 years. It's the Filipino staple. (3 times a day) When we had an orphanage 4 years ago, the Lord sent us a good samaritan that sent money for our monthly supply of rice. Now we get to be the good samaritan to 8 centers. This year we added 2 other centers. We are excited to continue expanding our outreach and providing support to even more centers in need. Our goal is 10! What we do to the least of these, my brethren, you've done it unto me.

Testimony of Mildred Ebreo

"I'm Mildred Ebreo, a kindergarten teacher at Manggalang 1 ES. As I started teaching, it was my commitment, and I believe, my calling to use the platform I have, as a teacher, to teach children not just the knowledge they need to know but also the word of God that I believe will hone them to be better individuals. That's why I use SUPERBOOK video stories and the SALVATION SONG as our prayer during our classes. Then I saw on Facebook that SUPERBOOK could be invited for school events; it was my prayer from then on that they may also come to our school. And God did answer my prayers. Thank you to Mommy Lorraine, as she became our contact for the SUPERBOOK event.

The event was truly a remarkable experience for the children and myself, who've seen it firsthand. The interactive storytelling and vibrant visuals of SUPERBOOK completely captivated the children's imagination. They were so engaged, their eyes wide with wonder as they followed the biblical adventures. I saw children who are usually shy participate actively and share their thoughts. The event fostered a sense of community and excitement around learning about biblical stories. What impressed me most was how effectively SUPERBOOK managed to convey complex biblical narratives in a way that was accessible and engaging for five-year-olds and the other grade levels. The characters were relatable, the stories exciting, and the overall message of faith and love was presented beautifully. The event not only entertained but also sparked meaningful conversations about kindness, courage, and faith. It was a wonderful opportunity to instill positive values in a fun and memorable way. I wholeheartedly recommend SUPERBOOK to other schools and believe it's a fantastic resource for enriching children's learning experiences. Thank you.
