Some news from the Emperados in the Philippines was shared on Facebook recently and we share it with you asking that you keep the church in the Philippines and especially Richard and Becky and their family in your thoughts and prayers. For the elders, Ken D

July 23 – Howdy! Please pray for Richard & kids! They left on their first missionary trip as a team. They will spend the week working & visiting the church in Naval & Catarman. Lyn & Lou have materials to share with the ladies for Sunday school classes & Grant will be working with the teens.

August 1 – Richard & the kids made it home from their first missionary journey about 5am Monday morning. They were gone for a week. They visited the churches on three islands: Naval, Biliran; Baybay & Bato, Leyte; and Borongan, Samar. The girls shared teaching children Bible materials in Naval & Bato. Grant was able to speak in three places. I think he preached Sunday in Baybay. It was a good first experience for all.
