Preaching at Dingras, Ilocos Norte
July 8, 2009: We left Caba, La Union 9:00 in the morning and traveled by land towards Dingras, Ilocos Norte; we thank the Lord for the safe trip and He let us arrived at Dingras 6:30 in the evening. There we met brother Jun Macusi (preacher at the congregation at Barangay Parado, Dingras, Ilocos Norte), his whole family, some fellow preachers, and the brethren and friends. It was already years since we last visited the place of our beloved brethren that is why we were very happy and excited to talk with them and encourage one another more. After a short dinner we immediately proceeded with the preaching of the gospel where brother Kurt Jones preached about "Fellowship" (1 John 1 :1-7) which was translated by brother Warner Macusi. The brethren were very thankful that God was able to open an opportunity for us to be with them even for a short period of time. The preaching encouraged them much and gave them more strength to continue in serving our God. The following morning we all parted with heavy hearts for we do not know when we will be seeing each other again but at the other part of our hearts we felt happiness for we were able to study the words of God together.
