Missionary Serving in Muslim Community Shares Testimony at Asian Center for Missions’ 30th Anniversary

Posted on by Jim Reyes | Leave a Comment on Missionary Serving in Muslim Community Shares Testimony at Asian Center for Missions’ 30th Anniversary

“Slowly, through prayer and service, we gained their trust. Today, we’re seeing hearts open to the Gospel.”

These words are from the inspiring testimony of Zuriel, a missionary trained by the Asian Center for Missions (ACM), CBN Asia’s missionary training arm. Serving among tribal and Muslim communities in Southeast Asia, his story was one of the highlights during ACM’s 30th Anniversary Celebration, held on July 5 at Dusit Thani, Makati.

The event was a meaningful gathering of missionaries, ministry partners, and friends who said “yes” to God’s call to missions. Among them were ACM Founder and CBN CEO Gordon Robertson, CBN Asia President and CEO Peter Kairuz, and ACM Philippines Director Danny Bayasen. 

There are still millions of people across Asia and beyond who have never heard the name of Jesus. The task of reaching them is great, and it takes trained, Spirit-led, and committed missionaries to go where others cannot. The call remains urgent—and ACM continues to answer it.

When God opened an opportunity for missionary training near Zuriel’s area of ministry, a friend recommended it to him. That divine appointment opened the door for Zuriel to receive the care, support, and training he needed to serve effectively on the mission field.

“It feels good, and it is a privilege to have ACM as our partner who stands with us in this missionary work,” Zuriel shared.

ACM helps train and prepare missionaries like Zuriel before they are sent and while they serve. They are taught how to share God’s love, understand and respect different cultures, and stand strong through challenges with wisdom and faith.

As of February 2025, ACM has:

  • Trained 2,795 missionaries
  • Deployed 1,354 missionaries to the world’s most unreached region—the 10/40 Window
  • Reached 74 nations with the hope of the gospel

But ACM goes beyond training and equipping.

“ACM also provides us with quarterly financial assistance for the shelter we maintain for the students we are reaching out to,” Zuriel adds.

The challenges Zuriel and his team face in the mission field are real and difficult.

“It was our hardest journey yet: crossing 7 to 8 rivers over difficult terrain, no electricity, and clean water. On one trip, I had a motorcycle accident, but we kept going. It wasn’t easy to enter this Muslim community. Slowly, through prayer and service, we gained their trust. Today, we’re seeing hearts open to the Gospel.”

Zuriel is serving in a remote, hard-to-reach area—where daily life is tough and spiritual resistance can be strong. It takes incredible courage, perseverance, and faith to serve in such places, where comfort is scarce but the need for Jesus is great.

And yet, despite the danger and difficulty, Zuriel did not give up. Why? Because he knew he was called. Because he believes Jesus is worthy.

If you, like Zuriel, sense that God is calling you to go—what’s stopping you?

Zuriel has an encouragement for you.

“I believe that the desire and perspective you have come from God. If you’re feeling afraid, remember this: God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power and boldness.”

And if your heart desires for people to know Jesus but you feel that you’re not called to the frontlines, Zuriel has something to say to you, too.

“I truly believe that God is calling you to pray and support. Be a sender or a mobilizer for this ministry of God.”

Zuriel’s story is not just about one man’s courage—it’s part of God’s bigger mission to reach people, tribes, tongues, and nations. His journey shows us that the Great Commission needs all of us: those who go, those who send, those who pray, and those who give.

Now is the time to come together to spread God’s good news.Whether you’re a missionary called to go, or a sender, intercessor, or mobilizer—you have a part to play in the mission of God. And you can partner with the Asian Center for Missions in making this vision a reality.

Asian Center for Missions Celebrates 30 Years of Reaching the Nations 

Posted on by Jeaneth Panti | Leave a Comment on Asian Center for Missions Celebrates 30 Years of Reaching the Nations 

The Asian Center for Missions (ACM), CBN Asia’s missionary training arm, marked three unhindered decades of sharing the gospel to the nations, through a special gathering of missionaries, partners, and friends, at Dusit Thani, Makati, on July 5. 

The event celebrated stories of faith in action: 2,795 missionaries trained, 1,354 deployed to the world’s most unreached region, and 74 nations touched by the hope of the gospel. Each number represents a life that said “yes” to the calling, a soul that now knows Jesus, and a generation being transformed. 

Missionaries serving in various counties came dressed in traditional attire, mostly of the countries where they minister — a colorful testament to the diversity of cultures and people groups reached by ACM-trained missionaries over the years.

Hosted by The 700 Club Asia’s Kata Inocencio and Alex Tinsay, the celebration commenced with a meaningful parade of flags, honoring the countries reached by ACM-trained missionaries. Voices rose together in a moving time of praise and worship, celebrating God’s faithfulness to the ministry.

Bishop Leo Alconga, serving on the ACM Board of Trustees, opened with a heartfelt prayer, expressing gratitude to the Lord for the missionaries’ dedication and for how He has worked through ACM over the years.

Peter Kairuz, ACM Chairman of the Board and President and CEO of CBN Asia, then gave his warm welcome to the guests, and shared an inspiring message which reminded everyone of the true measure of ACM’s impact over the years.

“These past 30 years are not just about numbers or nations. They’re about souls who know Jesus as Lord and Savior because someone chose to go, someone prayed, someone gave, and someone persevered,” he said.

ACM Co-Founder and 1st International Vice President, Dr. Miguel Alvarez, encouraged the missionaries and partners, “God will enable you. The Holy Spirit will be with you as you go. He who is wise wins souls. The world is waiting for you.”

A moving segment of testimonies from ACM-trained missionaries highlighted the real impact of the ministry — stories of transformed lives and communities, and the perseverance of ordinary people responding to an extraordinary call.

Danny Bayasen, ACM Philippine Director, delivered an inspiring report on what God has done through ACM in the past 30 years and shared a bold vision for 2030. 

“We cannot do it alone, but together we can do more things with the Lord,” he said.

In a moving display of global impact, missionaries greeted everyone in their mission field’s native language and proclaimed the name of Jesus. The crowd then joined in a united prayer for the nations.

A powerful message from Gordon Robertson, ACM Founder and CEO of The Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), called on the people to continue to answer God’s call to “Ekballo” — a Greek word which means “to drive or send out.” 

“The best way is for you to be filled with God’s love that when you hear that there’s an unengaged people group, you are going to say in your innermost being, ‘I can’t stay here. I have to go and preach the gospel!’”

Long-time ACM partner and Board of Trustee Carol Roa also shared why she said “yes” to partnering with ACM and encouraged others to invest in missions. 

“Jesus is the owner. He has not transferred the ownership of what He has given us. Everything belongs to God — we are just stewards.” 

The gathering concluded with a prayer led by ACM Board of Trustee Pastor Paul Ignacio, sealing the time with thanksgiving and dedication for the years ahead.

In the afternoon, Paul and Ashley Lackie ministered personally to the missionaries, declaring words of encouragement and prophecies to strengthen and refresh those on the frontlines.

For 30 years, the Asian Center for Missions has faithfully carried out its mandate: to train, send, and care for missionaries who serve among the world’s least-reached people groups. To learn more or to partner with ACM, visit https://acmnet.org/. 

Missionary Couple Celebrates Over 25 Years of Faithful Service in Cambodia with Asian Center for Missions

Posted on by Jeaneth Panti | Leave a Comment on Missionary Couple Celebrates Over 25 Years of Faithful Service in Cambodia with Asian Center for Missions

With hearts full of gratitude and a deep sense of mission, Ernie and Amera Gardose joined fellow missionaries, partners, and friends at the Asian Center for Missions’ (ACM) 30ᵗʰ Anniversary celebration held at Word for the World, Makati, on July 4. The meaningful gathering was led by ACM Founder and CBN CEO Gordon Robertson, and CBN Asia President and CEO Peter Kairuz.

The milestone, aptly themed Missions Fiesta, marked not only three decades of ACM’s global impact but also the couple’s more than 25 years of faithful service in Cambodia—made possible through God’s call and ACM’s training and unwavering support.

Amera recalls her journey began while she was praying for various people groups around the world.

“At that time, I was interceding for India when I received a clear call to become a missionary,” she shared.

For Ernie, the calling came through the testimony of another missionary who visited their church.

“His story had a deep impact on me. That was when God began speaking to my heart, reminding me, ‘You can be a missionary too.’ From that day on, He never stopped reminding me of that calling.”

Since then, Ernie and Amera have made Cambodia their mission field, committing their lives to serving the local and international communities. Amera teaches at an international missionary school that not only disciples children of missionaries but also includes local Cambodians.

“It’s a privilege to share the gospel and disciple young minds. Some of whom have grown up and now serve in the same ministry,” she said with joy.

Ernie serves alongside Amera in children’s ministry at the International Christian Assembly Church, while also ministering in two local village churches.

“I see the joy in training members who now lead Bible studies and prayer meetings. Like Joshua rising after Moses, they are now leading with hearts on fire. Not because of us, but because of God’s work in them.”

Reflecting on their mission journey, both Ernie and Amera credit ACM for equipping them with the foundation they needed.

“The six-month intensive training we received from ACM prepared us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Without that, we wouldn’t have lasted more than 25 years in the field,” Amera shared.

Ernie added, “Before ACM, we were afraid to move forward. We felt alone. But ACM gave us a platform—training, encouragement, and prayers that sustained us. Knowing we had a community behind us gave us the confidence to obey God’s call.”

As they celebrated this special anniversary, their message to aspiring missionaries was clear and heartfelt.

“If God is calling you, take that leap of faith,” Amera encouraged. “The Lord who calls is able and faithful. I’ve tasted His goodness, and I can say: the fear is nothing compared to the joy of obeying Him.”

Ernie echoed, “Keep saying yes to God. You’ll be amazed how He uses your life to bring others into His presence. It’s always a blessing to respond to His call.”

Their story stood as a living testimony of God’s faithfulness and of the countless lives changed when ordinary people say yes to an extraordinary God.

Asian Center for Missions Marks 30 Years of Unhindered Ministry with Meaningful Missions Fiesta

Posted on by Jeaneth Panti | Leave a Comment on Asian Center for Missions Marks 30 Years of Unhindered Ministry with Meaningful Missions Fiesta

The Asian Center for Missions (ACM) joyfully marked its 30th anniversary on July 4 with a special Missions Fiesta, uniting missionaries, partners, and friends to celebrate three fruitful decades of reaching people for Jesus.

The event serves as thanksgiving and reminder of the immense value of their calling and the faith that sustains them on the field.

The Missions Fiesta opened with Reverb Worship PH leading a powerful time of praise that lifted Jesus in the place and brought hearts together in worship—with artists James Reyes, Joselle Feliciano, Nolo Lopez, Rhea Rodriguez, and Veejay dela Calzada.

In his compelling message, ACM Philippine Director Danny Bayasen challenged the attendees to embrace Caleb’s timeless declaration: ‘Go. Possess. Overcome.’ — which also became the event’s battle cry.

He encouraged missionaries and partners alike to boldly claim and declare the nations for Christ, believing that people everywhere are longing to truly know the God who saves.

“Ask God for your mountain,” he challenged everyone.

Gordon Robertson, CEO of CBN and Founder of ACM, stirred hearts with a powerful reminder of what it means to live out faith every day.

“When you show up, the Kingdom shows up. When you show up, Jesus shows up. When Jesus shows up, miracles show up,” he declared.

Many experienced this firsthand as Robertson, together with Paul and Ashley Lackie and other missionaries, prayed for healing over those battling sickness.

In the afternoon, ACM extended its care for its frontliners through Missionary Care — offering free medical and dental check-ups, eye exams, ECG, ultrasound, haircuts, massages, fun games, and local comfort food that missionaries often miss while serving across borders.

More than just practical services, this time of care served as a tangible reminder that the community stands with those who stand on the frontlines.

For many missionaries, these simple yet thoughtful gestures not only refresh their bodies but also uplift their spirits, reminding them that they are not alone in the calling God has placed on their lives. It’s a beautiful way to renew their strength so they can continue carrying the message of hope to the nations.

As ACM marks this milestone, it continues to champion and cheer on missionaries who GO, POSSESS, and OVERCOME for God’s glory. Truly, the past 30 years are a testament to God’s faithfulness — and to the countless lives changed because brave men and women chose to say “yes” to His call.

If you want to take part in God’s mission, you can partner with the Asian Center for Missions today. Together, let’s send and care for more missionaries who will share the hope of Jesus to more people and nations. To learn more about ACM, visit www.acmnet.org.

Superbook Kicks Off Its First Teachers’ Training in Baguio

Posted on by hezronlandicho | Leave a Comment on Superbook Kicks Off Its First Teachers’ Training in Baguio

Teachers are often referred to as “second parents” because they play a significant role in influencing a child’s development and experiences. As secondary guardians, they provide care,  support, and guidance beyond the four corners of the home.

That’s why Superbook is thrilled to hold its first-ever teachers’ training to empower and equip educators with God’s Word and make a lasting, transformative impact on the next generation. A total of 37 participants, composed of daycare, preschool, and Sunday school teachers, eagerly attended the training in Christ Reigns Ministries Church last October 22, 2024 in Baguio City.

It was an afternoon filled with anticipation and enthusiasm as the teachers learned how to use Superbook into their lesson plans. Teacher Abby Rodolfo, one of the attendees, shared “During the training, I was particularly drawn to the teaching outline presented, as it helps me set a standard. You don’t just let the students watch the episode; the facilitator provides a step-by-step plan that helps the kids retain the lesson.”

After providing the teachers with essential resources and support,  they split into small groups to apply what they learned. They had fun brainstorming creative ways to share the Superbook episode with their students using the teaching outline.

Icko Gonzalez, Special Projects Manager, has hopeful expectations following the training. He said, “I really hope we were able to equip the teachers with the basic skills on how they can use Superbook as a supplement to what they are already doing. I hope that they will take it to heart and fly with it.”

Superbook is more than just an episode that kids watch; it’s a valuable teaching resource that educators can use to make a meaningful impact on their students. This is what Teacher Norman San Juan, the curriculum coordinator and facilitator, aims to communicate. He shared, “The younger generation is surrounded by many influences, and we want to teach them the Word of God through Superbook. Our goal is to share that same mission and vision with the teachers.”

What makes this groundbreaking event more memorable is its location—Baguio, regarded as the Education Center of the North. Many young people flock to this city in search of educational opportunities. Pastor Jojo Solis and his wife, Pem, who graciously hosted the event in their humble church, are driven by the desire to influence young minds with the Word of God through Superbook.

“Our mission has been towards the youth and children ever since we started this ministry. Our big idea is to bring Superbook to all barangays. A lot of young minds are being molded here that’s why this is our battle cry. If you cannot feed them with the righteousness of God, they risk losing their way,” Pastor Jojo exclaimed.

Superbook Shares the Gospel to the Aeta Community

There’s no stopping Superbook from sharing the gospel with the children all over the Philippines!

The Superbook team brought the fun-filled event Gizmo on the GO! at To God Be The Glory Christian Academy in Zambales. Many children from the Aeta community attend this school.

The day was filled with joy as the students arrived. They couldn’t hide their smiles and excitement! Everyone eagerly participated in the games and activities.

The highlight for many was watching the Superbook episode He is Risen, which tells the story of Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection to save mankind from sin and death (John 19-20). This timeless Bible story not only taught them life lessons but also led them to receive Jesus in their hearts.

Fifteen-year-old Rijanaly shared her thoughts after watching Superbook. “Having Jesus in our lives is important, especially when we face tough times. I also learned to love and obey my parents,” she said.

Teacher Romalyn Ladringan shared that Superbook is an effective tool in teaching God’s Word to children, “It’s crucial to instill God’s Word in children so they can carry these lessons with them throughout their lives.”

The students’ excitement soared when their beloved robot friend, Gizmo, joined them. Together, they joyfully danced and sang along to The Salvation Poem. They also prayed a heartfelt prayer to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior, making the day more meaningful for them!

The children also received loot bags filled with yummy snacks and Superbook gifts.

Through Gizmo on the GO!, CBN Asia not only brought a joyful afternoon to the children of the Aeta community but also sowed seeds of faith, hope, and love. The lessons they have learned from Superbook can resonate in their hearts for years to come, shaping their character and guiding them on their life journey.

Join Superbook’s mission to share Jesus and touch the lives of children and families throughout the Philippines. Send us a message on Facebook if you want to be involved in our ministry.

God Rewards Generosity

Posted on by Jeaneth Panti | Leave a Comment on God Rewards Generosity

Have you ever hesitated to share your blessings because you were worried about running out?

Leila Custodio knows exactly how you feel.

She is a single mother and an early retiree when she decided to partner with Asian Center for Missions (ACM) by supporting them financially.

“My kids were always reminding me to slow down on using my money,” she said.

Leila first heard of ACM when she attended a mission awareness seminar at her church. The vision and mission of ACM reignited her dream of becoming a missionary, prompting her to support the ministry financially.

“I am amazed at the sacrifice of the missionaries and what they do for the Lord,” she said.

Leila had no source of income, and she wasn’t even eligible for her pension yet. But that did not stop her. Every month, she faithfully gave Php 300 to ACM.

But it wasn’t always easy for her to keep giving monthly.

At times, Leila questioned if her small contributions made any difference, wondering if she should continue giving.

Do you also feel like your generosity doesn’t make a difference?

Despite those doubts, Leila stayed true to her decision. She trusted that the Lord would provide for her. So, she kept giving to the ministry.

“I believe in what the Bible says that if you sow generously, you will also reap generously,” she shared.

And the Word proved true in Leila’s life! She received five times more than what she had given through her investment earnings. And guess what? Her retirement pay remained untouched!

This incredible blessing inspired Leila to increase her monthly donations to ACM, compelled by the understanding that God blesses us so we can bless others.

And what Leila experienced, you can too. In God’s economy, giving enriches us. So, don’t hold back!

In His Word, He says,

“Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” (Luke 6:38)

Join us in supporting and sending missionaries to spread the Word of God across the nations. If you desire to make a difference and be part of this incredible mission, partner with us today!

If you find yourself in a season of financial struggle and need prayers for God’s provision, we’re here for you. Our 24/7 Prayer Center is just a phone call away. Reach out to us, and together we’ll seek God’s guidance and provision in your situation.

5 Most Popular Filipino Culture and Values

5 Most Popular Filipino Culture and Values – Which One Do You Love Most?

Posted on by Jeaneth Panti | Leave a Comment on 5 Most Popular Filipino Culture and Values – Which One Do You Love Most?

What makes you a proud Filipino?

The Filipino culture is an exuberant story that tells of the nation’s journey through the centuries. The values and customs many Pinoys hold dear to their hearts reflect a colorful history, a celebration of life, and their unwavering faith in God.

To mark this year’s National Culture Consciousness Week, here are 5 of the most popular Filipino culture and values that bind the Pinoys to each other. Which one do you love the most?

5 Most Popular Filipino Culture and Values

1. Pagmamano

The westerners shake hands, the east Asians bow down, while some southeast countries clasp their hands. Then there’s the Filipinos with their own cultural trademark called pagmamano.

Pagmamano is an honoring gesture that communicates warmth and respect when the younger ones greet or say goodbye to their elders. It is done by taking the elder’s hand and touching it lightly on your forehead—a distinct way of showing respect and receiving blessings from them.

2. Using po and opo

Kumusta po?

Aside from pagmamano, po and opo are words Filipinos use to show respect when talking to elders or someone they respect. Opo is a polite way to say ‘yes,’ and its contraction po punctuates or ends a sentence.

The origin of the words remains unclear. Nonetheless, these simple catchphrases continue to win the hearts not just of Filipino elders, but also of foreign guests.

3. Bayanihan

There used to be a time when bayanihan looks like neighbors carrying a bahay kubo to a new location. Nowadays, people describe bayanihan as an outpouring of community spirit as people give their all for the common good.

From lifesaving heroic acts to simple yet sacrificial deeds, anyone can be a bayani when they unite to help their kababayans. And through your partnership with humanitarian organizations like Operation Blessing, you help keep that Filipino spirit alive.

4. Filipino hospitality

They say the Filipinos are the most hospitable people you may find anywhere. Whether it’s a long-lost relative visiting from out of town or a foreign guest, the Pinoys take the extra mile to show how they care for others.

The Filipinos bring this warm hospitality to other nations or wherever they set foot. So whether in the homeland or overseas, sharing God’s kindness is a sacred duty. Naturally friendly and hospitable, Filipinos are effective in proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ to other nations. You too, can share God’s saving love to others! Visit this page to know how.

5. Love for God and family

Having close family ties is also one of Filipinos’ unique cultural values. They give so much value to the family that they labor so hard and sacrifice so much for the ones they love.  Sentimental. Devout. The Filipinos’ heart is as warm as their sunshine.

It’s the kind of light that illuminates the land in times of crisis and hardships; the light that trusts the Almighty and believes that the nation’s strength emanates from Him. Compassionate, courageous, and God-loving—a clear national identity that is unmistakably Filipino and truly Christian.

“Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!” (Psalm 33:12 ESV)

Do you want to share God’s benevolent love and rich Filipino culture and values to other nations?

Kababayan, wherever you might be in the world right now, you can be God’s faithful servant and a blessing to the Philippines and beyond!

Partner with the Asian Center for Missions to know how you can help mobilize missions, care for existing missionaries, and train aspiring missionaries who are called to go and preach the gospel to the nations.

You may visit ACM’s website and Facebook page to learn about the work that God is doing through the ministry.

Are You Praying for Financial Breakthrough?

Posted on by Jeaneth Panti | Leave a Comment on Are You Praying for Financial Breakthrough?

Jing Ramirez was, but she wasn’t praying only for herself. She was praying for financial blessings so she can bless Christian missionaries.

It’s perfectly okay to pray for financial blessings. Who doesn’t want to be debt-free and financially capable?

In fact, God wants to bless you exceedingly, abundantly!

God is ready to bless you, but apart from personal gain, the real question is: Why are you praying for financial breakthrough?

Jing found her answer to that question when she met her husband Dan. An active member of their church, Dan was committed to support missionaries even in lack.

“There was a call for giving towards overseas missions but that time, my husband didn’t have any money. The only thing that was left to his name was his beloved motorcycle. Before leaving for Manila to work, he donated his motorcycle to the church,” Jing recalled.

This obedient gesture encouraged their whole church to start supporting missionaries, and inspired Jing to have a heart for missions too.

As the couple grew in love with each other, with God, and with missions, their trading business grew exponentially.

“I prayed, ‘Lord, if You are going to call us into missions, I pray that You give us the courage to say yes. But if not, we are also willing to give and to pray,’” Jing shared.

Until the day comes when their generosity was tested.

Their business started to dwindle—and eventually went bankrupt. Left with nothing but faith that God won’t forsake them, their family went home to Bacolod to start a new life.

How about you, do you feel like your faith is also being tested whenever you experience financial struggles?

How do you overcome?

Jing and Dan responded with prayers and obedience. Despite their financial problems, their commitment to the ministry remained unshakable. They faithfully endured the test and continued supporting their brothers in sisters in the mission field.

Jing’s budding love for the ministry grew deeper when she was invited to a Missionary Training Program by the Asian Center for Missions (ACM)—the missionary training arm of CBN Asia. Hearing the stories and struggles of missionaries tugs a string in her heart and inspired her to give.

“When ACM encouraged us to support missionaries, the Lord put an amount in my heart. It was way beyond our means, so I prayed about it. He confirmed that I should give that amount,” Jing said.

Though the couple didn’t ask for anything in return, God honored their faithfulness!

Their journey of giving started with a single motorcycle, and now, God blessed them with a motor apparel store in Bacolod. Their business venture is success defined, as it became the main supplier of motor and bike apparel in and out of the country!

“The Lord really provided way beyond what we were expecting,” Jing testified.

Even though Dan passed away years ago, Jing continues their legacy of giving to missionaries who devote their lives in sharing the gospel to the nations.

She continues to pray for and give to missionaries with pure joy in her heart—knowing full well that every peso she gives goes toward a cause that is important to God.

“There’s a bigger mission field outside! If we do not give, how would people know about the Lord? So I’m glad that there’s ACM who we could trust, who brings the fund to where it is needed most,” Jing ended.

Like Jing, are you praying for financial breakthrough so you can bless others?

Do you wish to support missionaries in sharing God’s saving love to the world?

You can do it in the comfort of your own home by giving to ACM or supporting the entire CBN Asia Family of Ministries!

Meanwhile, ACM will conduct another Online Missionary Training Program this February 2022. The program is open to Filipinos and non-Filipinos worldwide, ages 23 to 60 years old.

If you are called to do missions and you want to be equipped, register now through this link. For more information about the training, visit ACM’s Facebook page.

We would also love to pray for you. Call our Prayer Center at 8-737-0-700.
