Today, along with the Teens of Camp Sonshine, we ministered at the city dump site of Calajunan. I had not been there for a few months, and honestly I forgot how awful this place is.

I call it a missionary factory. Chris and I were directors of this internship in the Philippines, Thailand, and the US. Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...
