Children and families in Cagayan de Oro and Iligan City in Mindanao gave Gizmo and the Super Crew a warm welcome on a fun-filled five-day Superbook Bisaya Caravan: Sabay-Sabay Lilipad last July 23 to 27.
For the first time, children at Potter’s Wheel Church in Dansolihon, Cagayan de Oro, got to watch Superbook Bisaya. The room was filled with excitement as they realized that the characters from “A Giant Adventure!” were speaking a language familiar to them.
The kids and parents at TOP Centerpoint Church shared the same excitement when Gizmo visited them. The children eagerly played Galactic Word Quest, where they showed off their English skills, and Cosmic Calculation, where they impressed everyone with how good they are in Mathematics.
Gizmo’s final stop in Cagayan de Oro is to meet the cheerful kids at Pentecostal Church of God Asian Missions Inc. (PCGAMI) in the town of Gusa. Andrea, one of the certified Batang Superbook from the church shared, “I watch Superbook on my parent’s cellphone. My favorite character is Joy because she’s a kind person.”
The kids learned about Jesus’ love for them and they invited Him to lead their lives as their personal Lord and Savior. Hundreds of kids got to know Jesus personally that day!
The Superbook Bisaya Caravan: Sabay-Sabay Lilipad adventure continued in Iligan City at the Covenant Baptist Church hosted by pastor and social media content creator, Khan Santos. The kids from the church and outreach programs excitedly played games to save Gizmo from being trapped. In the end, they successfully saved Gizmo and had fun singing and dancing with him!
Princess, one of the kids who attended, shared with a big smile, “I’m so excited to finally meet Gizmo for the first time!”
Gizmo and the Super Crew capped off the Mindanao Caravan at Robinsons Place Iligan. Kids came early to meet Gizmo and watch Superbook in Cebuano. They cheered loudly when Gizmo arrived and joined in singing The Salvation Poem.
Pastor Ian from PCGAMI Gusa said, “This was very helpful for us because we were able to bring the children from our outreach program here and experience this kind of event.”
