Since Ptr Virgilio Fulo is both the senior pastor of Bulan Church and the overall PAMI field director, his reports include info and pictures from both arenas. Since Ptr Vir is the main pastor certified to perform marriages, he is occasionally called on to conduct marriage ceremonies throughout the mission. He also presides over monthly PAMI pastor/worker meetings, which include fellowship, discussion of business and plans, and distribution of allowances. In the past, most of these monthly meetings were held at Emmaus Bible Institute, but lately they’ve been rotating between various PAMI church locations. PAMI pastors also stay interconnected by doing a pulpit rotation one Sunday per quarter. Below are links to two of Ptr Vir’s photo summary reports.

Below are excerpts from a couple other communications from Ptr Vir.
Oct. 25, 2017 email from Ptr Vir:
Maybe we will have a special baptism first week of November because there are two candidates from Butag that they are ready to be baptize 2 months ago and we will pray for more other member if it is more to add.
Nov. 4 and 11, 2017 emails from Ptr Vir:
Praise God for the successful baptism that was conducted in Togbongon. Even though there were only 5 souls, I know angels from heaven were rejoicing because 5 souls had accepted and submitted themselves to God. (2 from Lapinig, 2 from Butag and 1 from Gate). Maybe next baptism will be next year, summer.

Yes the nice room that you have seen and mentioned is from the second story of the building that was built gradually because of the budget. The budget is coming from the pledges of the member. We know that in the long run the church member is multiplying so that we may be able to accommodate more believers. We need church widening for the expansion of the church. Part of our vision eventually is to grow and multiply, not only in our spiritual but as well in number. The second story building has three rooms that will be for young people, high school, college and graduates. We cannot do it inside the church because it will be crowded and it’s too small, that’s why we added the second floor for Sunday school. Yes we will send pictures at the end of Nov. or in the first week of December.
*Note: Just want to specify that the second story is not the whole church building, just part of it at the front of the church only for the three rooms of Sunday School.

Wonderful day to you Bro.Mike and to my sponsor. It’s always a pleasure to me to write to you. God use you as an instrument to help us here in the Philippines as workers of Christ for the expansion of God’s Kingdom. Thanks you so much for all the support you’ve given, may God bring you back more blessings.
Ever since you were there for me, even the time when I was studying at EBI. I personally thank you for being so nice and good to me. I will never forget you ‘cause you given a chance to work here in PAMI.
I am engaged to Ptr. Mark Cabral who also graduated in EBI, and soon getting married this coming Dec.18, 2017. Ptr. Mark is from Casiguran.
