One Sided Love Affair

It was boys against the girls at Sardis Lake Baptist Church - Vacation Bible School. 

  • If the boys raise more money Ms. Dedee kisses the pig.
  • If the girls raise more money Pastor Kevin kisses the pig. 

The girls won!  So Pastor Kevin had to kiss the pig.  See the hilarious slide show and video. (Scroll down and click the picture to watch both videos.)

The pig said it was the most humiliating experience she had ever been through and Pastor Kevin was NOT a good kisser.
 
Over $1,600 was raised for the kids of Subic Bay Children's Home at this "Pig Smooching" event.

Subic Bay Children's Home Receives 100% of Your Donation
A Hamburger for the First Time Ever 
 
Ben is the oldest of the three new boys that came to the home last week.  He was excited to hear they were having hamburgers.  He had heard of them but had never eaten one.  Bro. Valbuena told me the two older boys are eating them out of house and home.  They are very thankful to be fed three times a day - plus snacks!
John Lloyd is Out of the Hospital 
 
John Lloyd is out of the hospital and doing a lot better but still has a long way to go.  He is not able to keep down the formula they are feeding him so they are trying a different brand.  He still is not able to stand on his own but in time with good nutrition he will be okay.  Continue to keep him in your prayers along with his mother who is expecting this month.  Here he is pictured with Brother Valbuena's son right before going into the hospital. John is the little boy on the left.
 
Thanks to all who donated to cover John's medical care.  There were enough donations to cover his hospital stay, doctor, and medication.  There will be some follow up visits to the doctor and more medication that we will need funds for.

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas...

"The children's "wants" lists have been passed out to different churches in different areas. In between now and the end of July, we will see what becomes of it. What is needed now is funds to mail these items to the Philippines. If someone would like to take on that task, you would have some time to start collecting funds. Let's all pray for God's people to open their hearts and wallets for these special children."
 
But More Help is Needed 
 
"We have started collecting items! If anyone has a guitar or Gameboy (even used) and would be willing to donate it, it would be greatly appreciated. I think those might me the hardest items to acquire. Continue to pray that God's people are willing to allow Him to use them!"
