Update from the Philippines

With God's leading, the LIGHT (Lay institute for Global Health Training) school is running the third batch of 6months training course in Nueva Era, Ilocos Norte. Opened last January 11, 2010, it is already on it's 8th week of school activities and work education-filled with spirit-inspired messages and Christ's object lessons.

Work Education as a part of curriculum, is done 4 times a week(Mon-Thurs) morning from 8am- 11:30am, is a Bible based principle. 2 Thes. 3:10 says.....that if any would not work, neither should he eat. As a self-supporting institution, the students help in developing facilities, huts, garden and in other ministries.

Sign of the Times says, "When useful labor is combined with sudy...much more benefit is derived from work performed in the open air than from indoor exercise."

Each morning, 3groups in their working outfit will be assigned into diferent areas: 1 group in the kitchen ubder the supervision of Alma Zarate ad Shey Garcia; 1 in agriculture and in ground cleaning under Rey Daguplo.

As the sudents learn to cook, bake, plant and to handle bolo with diferent uses, they are also learning character development, so we Praise the Lord for bringing us into the School of Christ.
