Cornerstone Church

It has been a difficult season for the church since September until now. We were brought to a place of total dependence to him through this difficult time. The fact that things were not good, we were still able to go forward to what God is telling us to do. Praise God that I could able to report about the things that God has done in this church and through this church.


Here are some of the things that have happened this month:


• November 1, 2009, we are able to launch the church in Ilagan after the one-week mission. In October 26-31, 2009, our church sent out a team to go for a mission in Ilagan. The team was composed of three pastors; Pst. James Aquino, Pst. Marlou Javier and I, and the rest are all young people from our church. In this mission, our young people were able to conquer their fear, were able to share God’s word, and prayed for the old and young alike. Through this short mission a church started. We will be posting the story about Cornerstone Church Ilagan the day after tomorrow.

• November 13, 2009, our first ever worship seminar where majority of the Cornerstone Churches’ worship team attended the seminar. Our speaker, Stephen Chambers talked about the essential things to have an excellent worship team, which I think that what he said is true.

• November 22, 2009, while we were worshiping Pst. Mark received a revelation from God and delivered it to the people. This day is different because we had our altar call during the worship and not after the preaching. In addition, I saw many people responded that day and received a fresh touch from God.

• November 29, 2009, we had a speaker from Bolton who is already a long time friend of Cornerstone- Jillian Saunders. She spoke about not keeping the rubbish things that could not do any good to us. Moreover, she spoke of not holding back or keeping to ourselves the good things God has given us. Good things such as hope must be shared to the hopeless; the love God gave us should be shared to the rejected. After the preaching the altar was open, we felt such love, and compassion was release in the congregation.

God has done numerous blessings in the church despite the difficulties. The Lord taught me to count the blessings and through this, the church was able to rise above difficult seasons. We should always remember that in every season of our life God is always besides us and in us.


But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31

Many things are happening at our Churches, tomorrow we will see our new place in Salvador (our daughter Church). I asked Pst. Jonathan and Pst. Junior to look for a better place for us in Salvador 'coz in the last few months we used the public school but I really feel that we need to find a place for us. So pls continue to pray for us!!!

On friday afternoon, we will go to Cauayan to visit one of my friend and to pray for her and her business. After Cauayan, we go straight in Ilagan to visit and teach the Word of God. Then Cristeta, Me Anne and Dan-dan will stay at the Church in Ilagan 'coz I need to go back to Santiago for a sunday service.
