Many Filipinos do not have a personal relationship with God. This was once true of BJ, a Filipino high school student. BJ’s brother, Melbert, became a Christian after he began reading the Bible. Melbert shared the Gospel with BJ, and he chose to commit his life to Christ.

The brothers began attending the house church of IMB missionaries Wade and Sharon Sigrest. Wade began teaching and discipling BJ and Melbert and saw God work in BJ’s life. BJ shared God’s Word with his high school classmates and even started a Bible study with a group of friends at school. BJ now desires to attend Bible school and become a pastor after he graduates from high school.

THE COOPERATIVE PROGRAM is the financial fuel for reaching every person for Jesus Christ in every town, every city, every state, and every nation. Your support through the Cooperative Program allows missionaries like the Sigrests to teach and disciple individuals about Jesus and His plan for their lives.

PRAY for Wade and Sharon as they disciple Filipino Christians, as well as for BJ to have the opportunity to attend Bible school as he follows God’s call to become a pastor.
