RevGen Sponsored WOTM Seminars

We praise the Lord because since we shared to you last July that RevGen (a Christian organization geared to uniting youth Christians in Bulacan) opened opportunities for Living Waters Asia to conduct WOTM seminars to member churches, we have conducted six seminars already. Just last Sunday, we had three simultaneous seminars in three towns in Bulacan. Thanks to Star Youth Ministries members, holding simultaneous WOTM seminars was made possible.

The great thing about these RevGen sponsored WOTM seminars is that even if they're done in a particular host church, other churches attend the seminar, including non-RevGen member churches. Adding to the success of these seminars are the attendance of adults and elders of churches.

To RevGen and it's leaders, "Thank you!" for the chance to spread the WOTM principle. May God continue to bless your ministry.

A Prayer Request...

Please pray for Rev. Telesforo B. Yague, Sr., the grandfather of Living Waters Asia's Managing Director, Dennis Mark Y. Aglosolos. Rev. Yague, Sr. may be familiar to you. Yes, he's the face of the Million Peso Bill tract. After a visit to the Philippines last July, the 87-year old pastor was found unconscious in his apartment in Chicago. Doctors attending to him said he had a stroke, and as a result, his left brain was damaged. He was asleep for more than a week. He is now able to open his eyes but still can't communicate.

During Rev. Yague, Sr.'s years of Christian service, he was, by God's grace, able to start several churches in the Philippines. People who know him can attest to his zeal in sharing the Gospel. This was actually Rev. Yague's prayer that he told Dennis... that God will add more years to his life so he can share the Gospel to more people.

Pray for God's will regarding Rev. Yague, Sr.'s condition.

WOTM Seminar at United Evangelical Church of Greenhills

Living Waters Asia was recently at United Evangelical Church of Greenhills for a Way of the Master Seminar (July 19, 2009). Through the coordination of the church's associate pastor, Ptr. Mike Lim, the LWA team was invited to explain what biblical evangelism is.

Together with Dennis Mark Y. Aglosolos were members of the Star Youth Ministries who were assigned small groups to handle practices of one-to-one witnessing among the attendees of the seminar. Dennis' 7-year old son, Alen Daniel, was likewise present as he gave a testimony of his experiences in sharing the Gospel to strangers in parks and marketplaces. The testimony aimed to impart the idea that if a 7-year old kid can do it, how much more older Christians.

The seminar was a big success! The hall where the seminar was conducted was really full packed. The team had a great time answering questions from the attendees. We hope that more churches like UEGC will open their doors for LWA to conduct WOTM Seminars.

Chinese Gospel Tract

We have finally printed Living Waters Asia's first ever Gospel tract in the Chinese language. We know that many of you have been inquiring to us about this. Thanks to a faithful brother in Christ, Benaiah Villanueva, our "Are you a good person" comic tract is now available in the simplified Chinese language. And because this tract was printed locally, it's way cheaper than the tracts we imported from the US.

As most of you know, this tract can clearly show any person who reads it how wrong his/her understanding of his/her morality. People will understand that it's not man's standard that will matter on Judgment Day. It's God's high benchmark that will be in play on that scary day of judgment. With the comic illustration, people will surely be attracted to read this tract.

So to our Chinese brethren, enjoy giving out this tract! A tract in the Japanese language will be next on our project. Please pray for this.

WOTM Seminar for RevGen members

Revive Generation is a Christian youth organization that affiliates with churches in the Bulacan area. The aim of the organization is to unite young Christians towards obedience to our Lord. One of the areas the organization would want to stir young Christians to obedience is in the Great Commission.

To achieve this goal, RevGen, through the leadership of its current President, Rannie Cabalquinto, organized a Way of the Master seminar for its members last July 12, 2009 at Christ Gospel Fellowship Ministries, Bustos, Bulacan. In attendance were youth representatives from member churches. Conducting the seminar was Dennis Mark Y. Aglosolos and the LWA team. The principle was well received and the need for a more active involvement in the ministry of evangelism of young Christians was unanimously agreed upon by the attendees. As a result, the RevGen leadership agreed to have two (2) simultaneous WOTM seminars on August at two different venues in Bulacan. Pray for the success of this upcoming event.

Dennis Mark Aglosolos at Macau

It was a great day to preach about the Gospel! Dennis Mark Aglosolos flew all the way to Macau to do just this. The event was the Recognition Day of Maranatha Learning Center, a ministry of Filipino International Baptist Church pastored by Dennis' cousin, Ptr. Samuel Dave Aglosolos.

The crowd was mixed. There were both Christians and non-Christians all waiting to watch their children be honored for their year-long accomplishments in the said school. But before all the festivities took place, Ptr. Dave made sure that the Gospel be delivered. And so, he asked his cousin to do the honors in delivering the life-changing message.

The event went well. Congratulations to FIBC, Ptr. Dave and his very supportive wife, Sis Dory. And thanks also for the great accommodation. God bless you all there!

Successful LWA Youth Evangelistic Camp '09

Last May 28 & 29, 2009, Living Waters Asia conducted a free evangelistic camp for young people. The theme for the 2-day event was "Life's Most Important Decision." It was held at Guess Resort at San Rafael, Bulacan.

Campers enjoyed the different amenities of the resort such as the swimming pools, billiards hall, air-conditioned rooms, etc. In between the games and swimming time were sessions conducted by Arvin Cunanan and Dennis Mark Aglosolos. Arvin delivered messages about the importance of the Scriptures in man's life, as well as the importance of honoring our parents. Dennis, on the other hand, delivered messages on the sinful man's standing infront a just and holy God, his destination and God's way of salvation. Other Star Youth members handled the morning and evening group devotions, as well as the counselings.

The event was a big success that's why LWA has decided to make this a yearly event. They also intend to make the camp longer for next year. To know how you can support events like this and othe LWA programs, email us at support@livingwaters-asia.com.

A "FIREPROOF" Summer

If there's one word that will describe LWA's 2009 summer, it's "FIREPROOF". We have been so busy in the past two months holding special screenings of this movies. We've screened it twice in Pangasinan, twice in a Baliuag theater, screened it in two homes were unsaved people were invited. And we're not yet done. On the 23rd of May, we will be screening it in Quezon City, and there's a standing invitation for another screening, possibly on the early part of June for a women's
group.

Thousands of people have already heared the Gospel both from the movie and the preaching that Dennis Mark Aglosolos does after every screening. We only have our Lord to thank for the opportunity he has opened for the Gospel through this once in a lifetime movie.

WOTM Seminar at GLCC Baguio City

Living Waters Asia was recently in Baguio City to do a WOTM seminar. Guiding Light Christian Church organized this event that ran from the evening of April 24 all the way to the rainy afternoon of April 25. Attending the seminar were about 150 faithful Christians from the GLCC workers, several from Agoo, La Union, some representatives from the Philippine Military Academy, and a van full of Christians from the far away province of Batac, Ilocos Norte.

Dennis Mark Aglosolos gave lectures on the following topics: True and False Conversion, the Power of the Shame of the Cross, Hell's Best Kept Secret and How to Make Soul-Winning a Lifestyle among Christians. After the lectures, GLCC organized an on-the-job training session. Participants were organized in small groups and then sent to different spots at Baguio City. When the OJT was over, a count of how many people had a chance to hear the Gospel from the one-to-ones was made. Everybody was praising God after knowing that 194 people heard the Gospel despite the heavy rain. The participants also felt the joy that comes with doing God's will in their lives. Everyone had a smile on their face as they left the seminar while telling the organizers of the event of their commitment to regularly declare the Gospel to people.

Thanks so much to GLCC and their head pastor, Robbie Casas, and Ptr. Rene Ely, the head of the church's Ministry of Evangelism for their efforts in making this event a big success. We hope to work with you again in the future.

Star Youth Ministries Celebrates 3rd Anniversary

Last April 19, 2009, Star Youth Ministries, the evangelism arm of Living Waters Asia, celebrated it's 3rd anniversary. and just like their anniversary last year, they celebrated God's three years of faithfulness by doing what they enjoy doing best--- sharing the Gospel. After a short worship time at the Living Waters Asia office, they headed to town proper of Pulilan, Bulacan. It was "market day" that day at Pulilan and so, people were all over the place. The team gave out Gospel tracts and did some one-to-one witnessing whenever it was possible. After that, everyone enjoyed a well-deserved lunch at a nearby restaurant.

God has really been so faithful to the ministry of Star Youth. Before Living Waters Asia was conceived, SYM was already doing WOTM seminars and sharing the Gospel to places. Looking back, we are really amazed how God has used these young people in training thousands of Christians to share the Gospel biblically, the way Jesus did, and in bringing the God's gift of salvation to people all over the Philippines (we've done already three mission trips in Philippine provinces). We can't wait for our next assignment from our Master.

To God be all the glory for what SYM has become in the last three years! Thanks for all of you who have supported this ministry.
