”Timothy has proved himself, because as a son with his father he has served with me in the work of the gospel. Phil 2:22 (NIV)The Apostle Paul's description of the way young Timothy became his partner in the gospel reminds me of what God has done in my ministry to young professionals.
I have, for some years, been meeting with Jackie, Maricar, Tess and Tania to encourage them in their walk with the Lord. Now each of these dear friends has--like Paul's protégé, Timothy--become a colaborer,"serving with me in the work of the gospel." It is a joy to see these young women teaming up with me to reach out to their families, friends and colleagues at work.
Tess has been meeting weekly with friends Tina and Delia to discuss a Bible study on "Getting to Know God." "Maricar teamed up with me to reach out to the staff at the South Drive Manor hotel where she worked before she emigrated to join her family in Australia. I have been meeting with those hotel employees, reaping where Maricar sowed and watered." Tania is reaching out her officemates and teaming up with me to minister to her relatives and other young people in Itogon. Many have come to Christ just this year. And Jackie has been encouraged to see her relatives at Cabinet Hill begin meeting on Sunday evenings to discuss "how to study effectively."
Please pray for Jackie, Tess, Maricar, and Tania, and for those they are helping:
1. that they will be rooted in the knowledge of God and bear fruit in every way.
2. that they will know God and love him more.
3. that they will be protected from the evil one and from persecution.
Thank you for serving with me and for your continued support.
