                                                   COGWMF Minutes of Meeting of Sept-Oct 2011 Venue: Umuahia
11/10/11
This meeting commenced at about 10 am and was attended by all the elders and pastors and discussion on the camp meeting was finally settled.
 
There were not much as the meeting was mainly for camp meeting
 
Though the issue of pastor Udobong in regard to Ikot Inyang Eti's place was of worship came up through elder Friday who asked why this congregation is yet to be roofed, he added even though the building was too large. So he advised the pastor to lease with Pastor Christian in other to make the estimate that will enable for the roofing. Brother Friday noted that the amount that he earlier quoted was too much, that he should look at how they at Abam/Abala started.
 
Information was given to all by the General Secretary for all congregations to respond positively by bringing all the things that were distributed.
 
All thanked the brethren from WMF USA for the camp meeting support of $600 but put request for additional support of that equivalent i.e., $600 to help us for publication of the materials because printing is costing much this time.
 
Pastors requested for a step up in the stipend as to enable them meet up with the high transport fares.
 
Pastor Christian demanded that pastors and elders should try to bring more people to the camp, not after now some will come with three or five people all in the name of there is no transport fare, that since the year, a congregation should save some money preparing for the camp meeting which is once a year.
 
The meeting ended at about 2pm as to make enough time for our brothers from Calabar and Akwa Ibom to travel home on time because of bad road and high fares.

 

Philippines November Letter
November 12, 2011 Dearest Info + Editor & Saints,
 
Greetings in our Lord’s marvelous Name! We have just resumed in our country’s second semester schedule of classes after about two weeks’ vacation in which many Filipinos went home to their home provinces to visit their dead loved ones on the cemeteries. For God’s kingdom, it’s also good season for our local congregations to schedule their revival services and the others have it these remaining weeks of the month.
 
Because we’re late to start the Seminary (Pastoral Training) in San Leon, Pangasinan, we used the Semestral Break with the insert teachings of subjects by the visiting trainers such as Bro. Jerwin Ladio, Sis. Jo Albarico and Bro. Welbert Curilan. Because they’re working in Manila, they took the opportunity using their vacation to minister by helping to teach in the seminary. Sis. Minerva Ladio, the semi­permanent & stay in instructor and me do the alternate teaching in the absence of the visiting mentors.
 
We thank God for the answer of prayers in sending more than what we asked for number of trainees (11) to signal God’s will for us to open the formal pastoral training. At present, we do have fifteen (15) enrollees from the 10 in the pictures taken on the opening service we sent you last October letter report. We have 10 males and 5 females who majority entered the seminary by faith. Praying God will provide their sponsors to meet their Seminary’s financial obligation & needs amounting to about $37 per student monthly. God willing we’ll send another set of picture on our next report with the complete pose of the Seminarians with the trainers. We’re also nearing again our Youth Conventions scheduled this December vacation. We covet your prayers that God will further promote his works here in the Philippines thru the gatherings we have, Seminary trainings and with the supplication of needed provisions.

-In Philippine Labor,
    Sister Noemi Luzan Esteban
