Our time w/Glen &Sarah Biggs
We had the great pleasure of hosting Glen & Sarah Biggs and their 2 children Ethan and Jasmine in August. Glen and Sarah are old bible college friends and now Regional Directors & Missionaries in Davao City, Philippines. For 6 years, Glen & Sarah have been building a base from ground up and now have a staff of 20. To hear The Biggs speak of the amazing things God is doing thru their base w/kids, youth and families immediately brought a spark to mine and David's heart to get involved. Global Impact is a christian organization that provides homes to orphans, abandoned children, disadvantaged youth and impoverished single parents. And all these homes have great need! Balakbayan boxes (see sidebar for a picture) are a way to get some of these needs filled. Normal products we take for granted everyday are a treasure for them. For a minimal fee, a box of up to 200lbs can be shipped from our door to theirs. The Music Factory (David and I) have partnered w/Global Impact to be a supporter and help. Our goal is to ship a box every 2-3 months to begin with and hopefully 1 each month thereafter! If you are interested in helping us by purchasing items such as flip-flops, hygiene products, vitamins, school supplies, etc or helping bring awareness and/or donors, please email me directly. Any help is a HUGE help! Please check out Global Impact at http://www.myglobal.org/ or get info on Facebook. www.facebook.com/myglobal. There you can also watch video clips on what some of the homes are up to. We could use your prayers! We would love to see several boxes go out each month from different locations. Also, David and I have been invited to Davao City in April to teach. We are believing for this wonderful opportunity to be used of the Lord and hope to bring a team w/us! On future posts, we will add info on our sidebar to keep you updated on the missions base in Davao city as well as other organizations we are helping support/partnering up with. Above, please enjoy the photo of Glen & Sarah and their kids at my inlaws home. We had a great day of swimming and bbqing. A day of rest for them and for us!
