Glad to see that there are plenty of Fillipino believers on CC :). Is there still need for missionary work in the country? The gospel seems to be pretty strong there from what I can tell but I've never been there

Hi donkeyfish07. Our former pastor is now working for Christar. He said that most American missionaries are leaving the country.He is training filipino missionaries to send to different parts of the country. I'm not sure though.
 
Hi Donkeyfish07, warm welcome from us :) glad to know that u have a heart to serve and mission in the ph .I think PH are still open for mission work as it says in Luke 10:2 He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.
 
Thanks for the replies :). I plan on doing mission work at some point in the future but it sounds like it may not really be needed in the PI. The church seems to be growing on it's own over there now
 
My cousin just got back to the U.S. about a year ago from the PI after about six years of missionary work. My cousin picked up a family over there... lol. Be careful if you go to the PI to do missions work because you might end up married! :) LOL.

LOL . . . it makes no wonder if men from foreign land ended up marrying a filiipina when they visit here or do some job/vacation, 'cause

one thing that makes them fall for a Filipina is , aside from they are 'beautiful' (as said by donkeyfish07) is that they are Hospitable - in

general, filipinos are actually known for being hospitability . . .

haha Lol Gideon very lady like jud like ni Maria Clara? maulaw man sad mga babae ana ron oi haha pwede modern Maria clara nalang? hahaha




Donkeyfish,
If you really have the heart to do a mission here in the Philippines, I'm sure there still a lot of places where you could go to, especially the remote areas. Our country may be small, but it consists of no less than 7000 islands with more than 100 ethnic/tribal groups living in it with different cultures, different dialects.

True the Church seems to be growing, but only in the lowland areas,and mostly Catholic. We still have fellow brothers living in highlands who still believes with all these superstitions and has a different way of worship and still ignorant what true Christianity is all about. You might want to study and learn their culture first so you could adapt easily and a little of their dialect which would really help in getting their attention. I too would love to meet these people someday.
Godbless! ^__^
 
lol ate jangel... ana man jud siya na 'very lady like', very kay optimum na na siya...wala ko mahunahuna si maria clara ra jud . . . ahahaha kay kung lady like lng aw kana modern maria clara...hehehe

hey donkeyfish, jangel is right, mostly are Catholics, only little are christians (born again) ; more or less 90% and 10% respectively...

That is true.Majority of the people here are devoted Catholics.

Uhmm...In Mindanao, there are a lot of Islams and most of them are Christians already but they don't profess it publicly coz they might get murdered by their clan if they find out that they have converted into Christianity.

The southern Philippines has a long history of conflict .Muslim areas a degree of self-rule, setting up the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).The ARMM is composed of the mainland provinces of Maguindanao and Lanao del Sur, and the island provinces of Sulu, Tawi-Tawi and Basilan...But there are some Islams who lived in another city/provinces are peace loving community perhaps some of them decides to convert from christian to muslim and from muslim to christianity.
I heard throughout the Middle East are being attacked and killed while thousands upon thousands have fled their homeland in hopes of finding a safe haven in western countries. For example, in Iran, the Revolutionary Guard has taken over the oversight of churches and has arrested scores of Christian converts from Islam. In Kuwait, the Saudi grand mufti told crowds that it is “necessary to destroy all the churches in the Arabian Peninsula.” In Gaza, Christians have allegedly been kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam. These cases are just a few of many extreme acts and threats of persecution in the Middle East , it is likely that Christian persecution will continue to increase .
