Frontline Traning Program Graduation

Students were blessed throughout the last Frontline Training Program (FTP) and graduation.  The programs aim is to impart a passion for evangelism and equip students with training that will make them more effective in reaching out to help others find their way back to God.

The students live in community for three months and receive both formal and informal instruction.  Two modules are built into the program with the intent that graduating students will qualify to apprentice within local churches or other ministries.

The Brand New FTC Girls Dorm is COMPLETE!

After many months of raising funds and extraordinary hard work from our construction crew, we are finished with our very first permanent FTC girls boarding home.  Comfortably holding 18 children plus staff, our girls now live in a much better living environment where they can continue their education, grow more as a family together, and grow more in the Lord.  All of the girls are now smiling ear-to-ear in their new home.  Because of your donations, we are able to immediately start building the boys boarding home.  They can't wait to get in there!  To each of you who contributed in this project, all of Frontline thanks YOU!  We could not have done this without you and pray God's greatest blessings on you. 

Kids Street Ministry

Every Tuesday night, we head out to the streets of San Pablo City to hang out, love on, and feed the children who live there. We are so happy to see this ministry continuing to grow.  Each week, we have different numbers, one week we were able to give out 53 portions of soup and three larger family sized portions!  Some went to our regular street children and adults and others went to a group of people called Bajau that are very hard to reach out to.  We  rejoice that God opened the doors to help them too.

God continues to stretch!

God continues to stretch us and carry us toward spiritual growth and maturity here at the Greenbox!  We rejoice in the fact that God has opened up new opportunities for us to continue to advance His kingdom, spread the Good News, and disciple others. We are digging deep and stretching more as we continue to have Life Groups and Leadership Development Training classes.

Ministering in Bautista

God has blessed us with an opportunity to minister in the nearby town of Bautista (where we recently had a tent outreach).  We now have Sunday services, life groups, and training classes happening there each week. The Greenbox has been connected with Bautista before, but we have found that it so difficult for the Bautista members to commute to the Greenbox in Santisimo.  So we decided, why not go to them?  And that is what we are doing!  Benny Dangue, Pastor Ruel’s apprentice, is now taking over as the campus pastor in Bautista.  We can't wait to see what God has in store for all of them!

We have electricity!

Things are going well here at the Baloc Box as we continue pursuing every ministry that we have.  We have been incredibly blessed lately.  After a year of praying, God has answered our cries and given us the ability to have electricity in our church site.  We are now able to spread God's light in so many more ways.  Through electricity, we are able to continue growing in new and greater things.

Seamstress Livelihood Program

Through the use of electricity, we have now started a full time quilt-making and seamstress livelihood program for some of our church members so that they can gain a living for their families and for the church.  What an honor it is to see each of them earn a living with dignity rather than digging through trash to find recycling products to make money off of.  Praise God!

Discipling Through Life Groups

We have just started our 2nd round of students in our Leadership Development Program.  Soon they will  be discipled in living Biblically and will then be able to use their knowledge and reproduce this discipleship to the Life Groups in our church.
