Meeting with Pastor Elpidio


Last Sunday Jan. 22th. We were invited to the Ulas Church of Christ! This has been a Pastor that I have been trying to meet, and track down ever since Nov! Sometimes contacting, finding, and getting numbers or contacts take time here in the Philippines! So our office finally found this pastor's contact information right before Christmas, and I was able to contact him shortly after the New Years!

Well, I was very encouraged to meet and visit Pastor Elpidio's church and see just a little of all that he has been doing these some 20 years he has been a Pastor! It was very very encouraging to see the fruits of a faithful servant for over so many years! Along with sharing some stories about East 38th Street Christian Chruch which is now known as Post Road Christian Church which has supported him for well over 20 years! He was very excited to share with me all that he has been doing. We are looking forward to working with him in the future. We are currently trying to work some with his sports ministry that he currently has going in one of his churches!

Praise the Lord for faithful servants just like Pastor Elpidio, and sometimes I feel Churches don't thank these hard working, faithful, servants enough! We want to thank him for all his work, and know that we apprecaite all that he has done for the kingdom of Christ. Though, I know his humble spirit would only take it all in stride knowing that his true reward is up in Heaven!
