Justin and Angie Arender - Missionaries to the Philippines
March 24, 2011
Dear Pastor and Churches,
This is our first newsletter on the field in the Philippines. It is so wonderful to finally be here! We arrived on March 16th. Bro Don Disotell and Mrs. Roslyn Disotell came with us to help us with the move. Bro. Don is the pastor at Bible Baptist Church in Krotz Springs, LA. They were both such a blessing and huge help to us. We are so thankful that the Lord laid upon their hearts to help us.
We are on the main island of Luzon in the town of San Juan in the La Union province. My family and I are getting settled. We are living with my mom, Mrs. Diane Arender, while we look for a house. We are praying that we will start learning the language in a few weeks. Laken, Lauren, and Laci are already adjusting very well. Although, we are all still trying to get used to this heat.
We were able to get out some and show the Disotells some of the areas where we will be ministering. Bro. Don, myself, and some other men in the ministry went out in the Santa Rosa community, where we plan on starting our first mission, passing out tracks and telling people about Jesus. Eight people got saved. That was such a blessing for us and that has made us even more anxious to get started doing the Lord's work here in the Philippines.
Please continue to pray for us as we do the Lord's work here in the Philippines and thank your for your support. Our Address and Phone numbers are:
