We're in full swing of our ministries here. One of the ministries which we are pioneering in the centre is Ministry to Children and an adult cell-group who live in a dumpsite called Payattas. Payatas is Manila’s largest rubbish dump site and a means of survival for some of the poorest people of Manila.It is both home and work for some 60,000 people, many of them falling victim to sickness and diseases caused by the constant burning of rubbish.
We run a weekly cell group for adults and also ministry to the children. The weekly cell group for adults has given those who come an opportunity to share their struggles and to support one another in prayer.
Having been to Payattas and meeting the people who live there, I’ve filled with gratitude and humility. I’m humbled by the faith of the people despite their living conditions and struggles to make ends meet. I realized that I can never fully understand them, their family situations and culture, their poverty is way beyond my understanding.
keep up god's work. i do feel inspired by your devotion to god and his people.
