Ministry of Intern Student Jess Huab
Emmaus Bible Institute is a four-year Bible School, equipping local believers for full time ministry and evangelism. The course work at EBI consists of three years of class-room study and a one-year internship. The internship gives students the opportunity to have hands-on ministry experience while being supervised by a local pastor.
The following is a report from Jess Huab, one of PAMI’s intern students. Note that Jess is sponsored by the youth group of Trinity E. Free Church in Lakeville, MN. Other EBI students could use sponsorship at $30 per month to help cover some of their expenses.

February Medical Mission and Other Donsol Updates
By Ptr. Abner and Marilou Cornelio – January 11, 2011
My family and I would like to give our heartfelt appreciation to PAMI mission as partners in the ministry. I mean the support, concerns and prayer that you’ve shown. Sometimes, because of the distance of our place, it seems that we’re separated from our roots, loved ones and other friends for a thousand miles. Even cellphone signal here isn’t that reliable. Pastor Chito is always asking me if I received such communications, updates or advisory but oftentimes, I really did not.
However, those circumstance would not deter us from doing God’s mission here of reaching out people for Christ.

Bulusan Ministry Update
From: Ptr. Virgil Gacis, January 4, 2011
Dear Brother Mike and PAMI Board,
God is great, Praise Him! We appreciate God’s goodness in serving here in Bulusan church.Through the help of God, there are many people who come to Him whose eyes were opened by power of His Word. Though we experienced various trials here, the church is continuing to grow, not only in the knowledge and grace but also in numbers. There were six who accepted the Lord and were baptized last October 10, 2010. God continues to help new believers in their faith, we pray. Read More

By Ptr. Isomel Espinar (pioneering in Calbayog since spring/summer of 2010)
Note that he still needs sponsoring. See also:
PAMI Strategy to Spread Further South and Testimonies of EBI Graduates.
First of all, we would like to thank God for the great privilege of serving Him in a place like Calbayog (Western Samar). What we did first, was entrusting to God this such big job in prayer. With Ptr Randy Rivera in his motorcylce, we encircled the city praying the people.
Next, we surveyed the place, gathering data which we could use in planning and developing strategies.
We’re able to find house, a strategic one, now establishing relationship with neighbors. It’s good that we’re able to start at once feding for children. In Bgy Pablican, we started home Bible studies.

Sorsogon City Pastors’ Fellowship
By Ptr. Chito Mendizabal
For quite a long time, pastors and Christian workers in Sorsogon City were divided by invisible walls of indifference, probably because of frictions in the past – some say connected with “elections.” Some pastors were very active (even endorsing a presidential candidate); others were maintaining a non-partisan; still other pastors filed for candidacy for a particular position. Many others doubt that city pastors would be reunited again.
On November 30th 2010, however, about 50 pastors in the city responded to our invitations (initiated by Provincial Council of pastors) to a meeting. Election of officers was one item on the agenda. The thrust is more of building up one another as partners in God’s mission.
