Pastors Joshua and Emi Hernandez are still faithfully pastoring and feeding kids at Center of Life Church at the Refuge. Please pray for this couple and our partnership feeding these impoverished children.
Center of Life Feeding Program
October 13, 2015 by
We are now into our third month of supporting the Center of Life feeding program at the Refuge and the kids are starting to melt my heart. One Saturday when I pulled up the kids were all waiting outside for the doors to open. When I got out of my car, they all cheered and ran up to attack me with their hugs. I cannot put into words the emotions that I experience when I look into these kids eyes before giving them a big hug. I feel joy, love, compassion, and then I feel a rush of empathetic sorrow as I imagine how difficult their lives must be. At least once a week we can put them into a safe, comfortable environment, show them the love of Jesus, and feed them what might be the best meal they eat all week.

We Are now Feeding Little Kids!
August 12, 2015 by
Through a great new partnership with Center of Life Ministry and Pastors Joshua and Emi Hernandez, we are now feeding about eighty children who come to the Refuge Youth Center for church.
These kids live in poverty in a dangerous squatter neighborhood right behind the Refuge. Every Sunday morning the kids who come to Pastor Joshua’s church at the Refuge get to leave with a fresh, nutritious meal as they are fed both physically and spiritually.
Through your financial support, God is doing an exciting new thing here and fighting child poverty in the Philippines. Thank you for being a part of it.
