The Aftermath of Love
Friday, January 07, 2011
Our VGR office manager for the Philippines recently sent us this humble letter from a thankful young believer in the city of Pangasinan. He was among the many youth affected by the awful typhoon in his country last year.
We've already posted some feedback and pictures from the youth who received your help during the aftermath, but we wanted those who took part to hear how blessed and thankful this brother was by your love and support to him and the youth of his church. You'll realize the things we take advantage of when you read how he didn't even have his own Bible until you sent him one. Though the aftermath of the typhoon was terrible and left thousands of believers homeless, and with nothing more than the clothes on their backs, now you get to hear the aftermath of your love.
To our precious brothers and sisters in Young Foundations,
Greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. May His abundant love and grace abide in you always.
I would like to give my heartfelt gratitude to God and all of you, because I am one of the young people in the Philippines who received the Young Foundations T-shirts, and most of all, the Holy Bible. I'm the eldest son of Pastor Willy B. Carino, a responsible father and a humble pastor of Endtime Anointed of God in Libsong East (E.A.G.L.E) church in Lingayen, Pangasinan, Philippines.
I had been praying to the Lord for a Bible, and He answered my prayers! God used all of you as a channel of blessing to answer my prayer. Actually it's not only me who got a Bible and T-shirt in our family. My brothers, Phillip and Paul (twins) are also thanking you for what they have received, and our youngest, Ezekiel Mark, loves to read the Footsteps of the Prophet book. And all of the young people in E.A.G.L.E church are happy and blessed. In fact, we offered a Sunday special song wearing the T-shirts as a sign of gratitude to our Lord Jesus (click the link above to view pictures).
I know that God will truly bless you for all of your efforts. Let us continue serving Him and sharing His Word to other young people like me.
I wish to say more, but I'll just end it here. I hope we may meet and have fellowship, but if not, I'll just meet you in the Rapture! Amen!
God bless all of you always!
With God's love,
Your Brother Ammiel Jairus Carino
