HOPE OF TOMORROW

Praise the Lord for the conduct of 10 Hope for Kids Workshops (clinics) for the 1st quarter of this year. Training were conducted in several locations covering the whole country (Luzon, Visayas & Mindanao). The local churches and Christian schools are responding to the call to equip teachers, Kids workers and those who have a burden to reach the population of the next generation with the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This partnership with One Hope Organization is reaping wonderful results. This quarter 357 Kids workers have already been trained. 1013 Kids heard the gospel through the on-the-job training and 935 prayed to receive eternal life.

H4K: Children learning how to share the Love of Jesus

1st NATIONAL CONVENTION

18 churches of the Messiah Mission International Ministries (MMIM) are simultaneously implementing the classic EE (Tagalog). Congratulations & Praise the Lord!

XEE The newest training tool to reach out to the Generation X & Y

is multiplying. From 3 XEE Facilitators Training (Clinics) in 2010, we are looking at 13 Clinics in 2011. The EE community finds the new material to be simpler, and shorter to teach. Thus, the demand for Cross Over (to transition from the classic to XEE) seminars is also growing.

Of course, no one doubts the effectiveness of the classic EE. Millions have already come to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. However, in this modern age of high tech gadgets and changing values, the coming of a new tool provides the church with more available tools to reach the lost.

XEE: Sharing Your FAITH Starts with Life Now

BMM: Biblical Money Management

Pictures taken during H4K workshops

Batangas City; Sta Rosa, Laguna; Sta. Cruz,

Manila; Balanga, Bataan and Olongapo City were hosts to six BIBLICAL MONEY MANAGEMENT (BMM) seminars organized by EE Philippines. Mr. Matthew Kok, Senior Vice President of EFG Bank (HK) was the resource person to five hundred sixty eight (568) believers who attended. There were 79 local churches represented in the seminars.

HIS last command…Our First concern! “Sharing the Gospel is still of first importance in

church planting, and EE is equipping believers to do

just that."
