We are powerless, helpless and weak, but we are made strong and wise in the Lord. So if anyone needs wisdom, let him ask from God (James 1:5).

Colossians 2:2 My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely Christ.

Wisdom Comes from God
We have to say "YES" to every good opportunity: Yes to the right things at the right time. Otherwise, we lose something that would have rewarded us with a gift of a lifetime. But how do we judge that which is good from bad? right from wrong? godly from ungodly?
We are powerless, helpless and weak, but we are made strong and wise in the Lord. So if anyone needs wisdom, let him ask from God (James 1:5).

A New Milestone... A New Calling
Click image for a closer view of the Ordination Banquet Programme
The Lord has been doing marvelous things in the lives of our FECPI pastors and church planters. Just recently, we have witnessed how the spirit of these servants were ignited during the FECPI retreat at Pranjetto Hills, so much so that their faces were glowing with joy and excitement as the new vision, mission and core values were formulated and established for the common interest of all members of the FECPI family. Glory to God! It's such a wonderful experience to see how God's people with different personalities, backgrounds and experiences could just come together and unite in spirit and in mind for the purpose of pleasing, serving and glorifying the one true God!
And now, another milestone, another challenge, a new calling: Four of our church planters, along with 3 other FECPI pastors, made it through the screening, interview and "heart" examination to become ordained pastors. It's not just a title, so we say. It is a calling.
What does it take to be ordained? What does it involve? What lies ahead? We wonder. But whatever lies ahead, we are but sure it is all under God's masterplan, and goodness follows according to His perfect will and purpose. Hallelujah!
Congratulations to our newly ordained FECP Church Planters and pastors:
(From left)Jun Pinili (FFA), Jerry Cruz (Bataan), Jonathan Trino (RegII), Noel Penaranda (Reg II), Alice Penaranda (FFA), Aileen Dabandan (FFR) and Let Malaluan (RegIV). Also in this picture are FBC President Ermalee Hidalgo, NSC for churchplanters Mar Ocampo, and FECPI President Brent Burdick.
May you look forward to what lies ahead, press on to reach the end of your race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling you.
Shalom!
