Trace the journey of Jody and Barbara Crain from Florida to the Tagbanwa people of the Philippines
Phililppines
Every year in the Philippines, several people are crucified on Good Friday.
At the same time as this door to the gospel was opening, God had placed a barrier-crushing machine in their midst.
How does this process of discipleship work? Not quickly. It requires years of patient modeling and mentoring.
As a church grows and matures to become a thriving church, the development of leadership becomes an integral part of that growth. This issue looks at how faithful men and women are tapped for leadership in a people group in the Philippines. Read how the disciples become the disciplers, and how they push at the edge of their church, reaching out to neighboring people groups.
Your gifts are literally lifesaving, providing for emergency medical evacuations around the world at little or no cost to the family involved.

Thirty-two villages among the Tagbanwa people group in the Philippines have churches. Of the 16,000 in this people group, about 2,500 are believers who are growing and sharing their faith. There are new church plants going on right now, but without the Scriptures in their language, there was nothing available to facilitate their growth and discipleship. Because you gave to this project, the reprinting of the Tagbanwa Bible is now in process.

On Mindanao alone, hundreds of thousands of people in fourteen people groups still need to hear the Gospel. Ethnos360 has trained national missionaries from six of these groups, and more are in the process of being trained. The R66 helicopter is providing these new missionaries transportation into the very mountainous and remote areas where they are taking the gospel to those who have never heard (many of whom are their relatives). Thank you for the part you played in making this ministry possible.

This Project Has An Ongoing Need
FIA is seeking trained teachers for their world languages and culture courses in the high school division. In recent years, four levels of Spanish and French have been offered but the school curriculum is flexible to incorporate other languages as well. Courses would be taught in English with the goal of non-native speakers learning a foreign language.

FIA is seeking a trained teacher for middle school social studies (grades 6-8), who may also be willing to teach a high school elective or AP social studies course. Middle school social studies courses include world studies, Greek/Roman and medieval history, and American history. Flexibility to teach other courses, such as Bible or electives, is a benefit.
