It has been a joy also to visit the Philippines for two years running, where we have taught at their Spring Festival. We prayed for our interpreter's four year old son who had a severe bite on his foot, which was very swollen and black. He also had a fever but praise God after prayer and by the next morning Jesus had totally healed him. Many student from the Festival have enrolled for the correspondence course.

Brian and I were invited to go to Mindanao one of the Southern Islands of the Philippines. We went with International Aids Mission 2000. We visited Pastor Bonnie Simbran at Ipil Gatas who has planted close to 200 churches.

Brian and I taught at the week long Conference, seeing many released from curses and bondages and many renewed in the Lord.

We again went with International Aids Mission 2000. Ruth teaching the Bible School courses and Brian ministering in the mornings. Many people wanted to become correspondent students. Because of the poverty that these people face we have, through God supplying all the finances, supplied 30 students with Tape Players and Lessons, teaching tapes and files.
