| In 2008, we began scouting a new area to start a church, and the Lord led us to the villages of Lanas and Salay. This is a much more remote area than our first church plant and has proven to be much slower and harder as well. However, the Lord is definitely working and we have seen much progress these past 2 years. Here's what He has been doing through us. |
Trinity Baptist Church of Salay, Mangaldan
| In early 2008, we began evangelizing this area aggressively. Once we had a few to accept the Lord, we began meeting outside for Bible Study. We met this way for nearly 8 months, slowly seeing growth. |
| Before rainy season hit, the Lord blessed us with the funds to build a temporary shelter to meet in. |
| We met in the shelter for Bible Study for nearly one year and even began holding Sunday services. However, we were still fervently praying for a better place to meet in, trusting that God would provide. |
| In early 2011, the Lord provided a large empty building only 5 minutes from our shelter. We were able to rent the top 2 floors of the building for our church group and will continue to meet there until the Lord leads us to a more permanent home. |
