Dear Church,

Today I received photos of 172 children that are receiving an education through the dedicated efforts of one woman. Her name is Marivic Goloy. As she was naming each child, she could also tell me which year of school they were completing as well as a description of what their parents did to support their families. She describes herself as a servant, truly she is a saint.

One of the many miraculous outreach programs she administers is a daily vacation bible school (DVBS). When we think of VBS we think of already established programs, sets, supplies and instruction. On the contrary for Marivic, she prepares all of the lessons, makes all of the decorations and develops the messages and associated verses to be memorized. This year she managed to minister over 250 children even with her minimal provision.

It is appalling the conditions in which these children, their families and Marivic live and yet the joy you see in their faces is apparent. It is the joy you receive through knowing and serving the lord.

Marivic describes it like this, “living with these children in Gods love and guidance is like experiencing Gods kingdom on earth. Full of prayer, full of praise to the lord. What more could I ask for? God is my everything, every breath and step I make his presence manifests."

A Word from Marivic:

God bless you.
The on going DVBS is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing.
Leaders are coming out of their shell and i am really shocked for a while...God is reproducing more marivic, i told myself is there bigger things God wants me to do.
I did cried to God, i can't hardly believe those youths with me for almost 5 to 10 years are doing what God told me before.They are soooooooooooooo full of compassion to share God's Words to the younger generation.
Some of our children showed interest to learn more of Him our Great God.
Thank you sooooooooooooooo much for your prayers for these little ones.
Just look how they are doing.as usual pictures will tell you more.
