In 2009 our church sent a team of Volunteers to share god’s love with the people of Mindanao in the southern Philippines. It proved to be a very successful adventure; the team was used of God to minister through medical services, children’s outreach and pastoral encouragement, reaching hundreds of children, families and local leaders.

In various and subsequent trips we’ve delivered medical help to thousands of adults and children in neglected area’s, shared Jesus with a thousands of kids, practiced construction techniques in challenging conditions and, encouraged local pastors with His word. It is now clear that this is the time to see the dream become a reality. What else can we do but answer Him, “Yes, Lord, send us.”

 

We have a God-focused vision of a training and equipping center ministry for the nurturing and maturing of those answering God’s call to give, grow and go.

 

Here is a link to the Summer 2017 Missions trip:  

 

On May 8th, 2014 River TEC and friends departed on a 12 day missions trip to the islands of Leyte and Samar in the Philippines. There were nearly 1000 patients who saw our doctors, over 500 children ministered to, and significant progress was made on a building on the River TEC property.

 

To God be all the glory, honor, and praise!

 

We love our Filipino family and will keep them in our prayers and in our hearts!
