Christian Greetings.
I am writing on behalf of our school, Church Planting Institute It started last June, 2007.
We continue to thank God for this opportunity to help in the training of would-be-church planters. We are happy that God has allowed us to do this despite of the many limitations we have. We are grateful that some of you are part of the ministry.
We are now in our second semester, second year of operation. There are seven teachers at present.(Another Bert, Bert Patricio is leaving though for Singapore to do mission work. Bert Tupas left earlier for US).But we have new teachers in the persons of Bro.Jonathan Pagarao, and Jun Michael Pague. They are preachers in the area. They do volunteer jobs.(no pay).We only give 1,000 pesos for Jun Pague's fare allowance. He needs it.
Our building is now being constructed, and is financed by a donor.
But we need fund for students badly. There will be no school without the students and the teachers.
We only have five full-time students this time. Three are second years and two are first years. Some of our students dropped out for one reason or another. That's good because we eliminate those who are not really interested in Church Planting". But it is also sad and disappointing because they failed us in our expectations.
We have a very limited fund for our students and one "paid" faculty. We now have a deficit of 25,666.00 pesos (around $500.00) as of this date. We have more expenses before the semester ends in March . I will appreciate it much, if there are brethren who can help us.
Aside from the classroom instruction that the students get, we also continue to provide them as many experiences as they could have in the ministry.All five students have weekend preaching schedules. They report to congregations and do personal evangelism, lead devotionals. They are preachers and song leaders on Sundays, and teach Bible studies. We pray that they will become able and dedicated church planters in the future.
These are all for now. May God provide your needs so that you can be a channel of His blessings.And please remember us in your prayers
In His service,
Bonifacio "Jun" Patricio Jr.

Greetings. I am grateful for this opportunity to let you know what’s going on in the Lord’s work here in Metro Manila, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas , Quezon and Rizal.(Places where I am involved now).
In Metro Manila, I continue to be involved with my home congregation which is the Metro South Church of Christ in Makati/Pasay City. (I serve in the evangelism committee).I still meet with fellow leaders of the churches in Metro Manila, once a month and have door knocking and a meeting after wards. We talk about common programs/plans like; Youth Camp, National Evangelism Workshop /Seminar, inter-congregational worship and fellowship, and even our work inside the Bureau of Corrections. I also still assist and visit congregations whenever they have problems. I spoke on Sundays when I am invited. (I always work with the established leadership of congregations).
In Cavite,I am directing the Church Planting Institute, (CPI), located in the city of Dasmarinas. This is now our 4th year of operation. We have 9 students. School supports 6. There are 7 teachers, who are volunteers except for one. We are sending our students to four (4) congregations that don’t have preachers. (One is a newly planted congregation).I am now attending services at Salawag cong. almost every other Sunday, since the full-time preacher left.
In Laguna,I am involved with a newly planted church in Parian, Calamba. This is the result of a relief operation we did to flood victims last December 2009. There are now around 30 adult members. One of our students serves as the preacher. We are in the process of acquiring a lot where a church’s building. And another work now is being started in Calauan, Laguna. We have visited the place many times, befriended the people and did a rice and tracts distribution recently. There is an opportunity for the church to own a lot for the building.
In Batangas,together with co-teachers, I still go to Phil. International Bible Institute (Director is Charles Smith), to teach every Friday. During the day, we visit churches/members around. Seven students are on fieldwork. (We have 6 new students).They are assigned to congregations in Batangas City, Bauan, Rosario, San Juan, Ibaan, Lipa, and soon in Tanauan (this October). Bauan cong. is newly planted. And Tanauan will soon have one too.
In Quezon Province, we started to send students when we’re requested. There was one baptized lady who wants to worship in her home. Three more were baptized since then. This October 5-6, a medical mission is scheduled for us to have more prospects in the city. Church there is struggling. 2-3 students go there every Sunday afternoon.
In Rizal,I am beginning to be involved. A brother who was an inmate at the Bureau of Corrections, now live in the area. Just last week, he invited me to visit. I met the owner of a large land and he propose that we can own a portion for a church lot. In fact there is already an unfinished building that we can continue and use it for a meeting place. These are my involvement in the Lord’s work I this part of the globe at present. I expect more opportunities of planting churches in places where there is none. I pray the Lord will continue to use me. And I pray the brethren will continue to pray for us and continue to support our mission.
WE HAVE ONE EMERGENCY NEED BRETHREN. PLEASE HELP US IN THE ALLOWANCES OF OUR STUDENTS AT C.P.I. WE NEED $400/MONTH.BUT ANY AMOUNT WILL BE APPRECIATED. PLEASE CHECK www.aicpcg.blogspot.com and know about the school.
May God bless us all as we labor in His vine yard.
In His service,
