Pray for Kuya P, a man who has accepted Christ, followed in baptism, shared his testimony as part of a church service that we held on Sunday morning, and even expressed a desire to continue holding a Bible study in his home multiple times each week after we leave.

Pray for Kuya J, who has accepted Christ and remains on our hearts. Pray that he would grow and learn to own his faith.
Pray for Kuya B, who has prayed to receive Christ and seems to have an understanding of God's Word. Pray that he would find confidence in the Lord to lead others.

Pray for Ate V, a woman who is genuine in her faith, and full of emotion. She readily admitted that she is a sinner, and was eager to host others in her home to study the Bible.

Pray for Kuya J, a man with a Muslim background who initially refused to speak the name of Jesus Christ, but later prayed to become a Christian along with his wife. Pray that they would continue to learn to trust God to meet their needs.
