New Rice Trip in the Philippines - Pastor Palangyos Helps His People

 Pastor Palangyos is preparing for the next rice trip. They have $150 toward the $700 needed.

As many people know, the Philippines are one of many countries where rice is the basic food, the staple of life. We might have rice once or twice a year, but they build their meals around it.

Weather has been terrible this year and the crops thin. Pastor Palangyhos was able to start payments on a car to deliver the rice, which he takes to the mission.

They also have far more restrictions than we do about the Wuhan Flu (Corona) virus.

Some people give directly through PayPal. Others would rather send a check here, to the Bethany Lutheran Church account. When checks come earmarked for the Philippines, they are sent the same day on PayPal. Sending checks directly is expensive and cumbersome because of the exchange rate and bank complications.

 Jordan and Amabel Palangyos. They have two children.
They are bringing the Gospel and food relief to their own people, where they grew up.

Bethany Lutheran Mission in the Philippines - Pastor Jordan Palangyos -Temporary Roof, Expanding Outreach

 Pastor Jordan Palangyos leads the worship service.

In the first stage of building, the mission congregation began putting together the base of the building. Donations made possible the concrete structure and steel supports.

Donations provided a printer for producing educational materials.

They now have a temporary roof over the chapel and want to use steel and iron to protect the area.

They trust the efficacy of the Gospel Word. "I planted. Apollos watered, but God gave the growth." 1 Corinthians 3:6

 The main floor, newly built, is already crowded.

 We met member and Bethany attorney Glen Kotten and worshiped with long-time friends Pastor Jim and Chris Shrader - in Sioux Falls. 

 They are building and improving as they continue worship and education.

 They need to replace this temporary roof before the next rainy season.
