Hi All,
We've received word from missionaries Steve and Lenae Hong (Steve is a professor at the Philippine College of Ministry) that their forwarding agent, Steve's mom, received a check this weekend from IDES (International Disaster Emergency Service) for $42,000 for restoration of the PCM library!!
This is enough for the entire restoration of the library! In addition to this they have received other funds that will allow for improvements over the original library. All this in only 15 days since the library fire. We praise God for this! We are enocuraged, and pass this on to you hoping that you will also be encouraged.
We still need books! Many of you have already started collecting books, and contacting possible sources for more books. Thank you! We never dreamed the response would be so great and so fast!
What blessed lives we lead, to have a saviour who cares for us and helps us in EVERYTHING, and to be part of such a loving and caring body of believers. You all continually bless us and encourage us, and we thank God for you. We are praying for you, that you will feel God's love in your hearts and homes this Christmas season.
Serving with you,
Chris and Carole McKinney Philippine Christian Mission
