Hey Friends,
In August of 2012, we were blessed to take a trip to the island of Mindanao in the Philippines to help build a church and minister to the Mamanwa tribal group. In that short two weeks, we fell in love with the people and their incredible culture. We have longed to return to the Philippines since then, and the Lord has opened a door for us to serve there for a year beginning in August
of 2013! This door has been opened by way of an organization in the Philippines called Ministries to Christian Nationals (MCN). For over 20 years MCN has been evangelizing and training local Filipinos for ministry in their villages and cities. The Lord is calling us to serve this organization in the areas of basic administration and oversight of the Tribal Children’s Literacy Program. Because of prejudice and the low economic status of the Mamanwa people, many of the children do not have an avenue for education. TLCP is designed to address this very basic need helping children get into public schools. We will be staying at the MCN base in Cebu while making monthly trips to Mindanao. We will also have the opportunity to serve and encourage MCN missionaries throughout the Philippines as well as in Cambodia and Indonesia. We need people like you to commit to monthly giving, a onetime gift, or becoming a prayer partner. As you can imagine, a trip like this has many different expenses including flights, housing, food, insurance, travel from island to island, etc. Please pray and ask the Lord to see what part you can play in this work He wants to do in the Philippines. You can send your tax deductible gifts to MCN PO Box 55938, Portland, OR 97238. Please indicate the gift to be for "The Orozco's". If you would like to learn more about MCN please visit their website at http://www.mcni.org/index.html. Thank you for your faith and giving heart. Together we are advancing the Kingdom for Christ! Serving with you,
Daniel and Amanda Orozco
