Anderson: Manila, Philippines

Steve serves as boarding home administrator at Faith Academy. The campus overlooks the megacity of Manila, a metropolis of more than 17 million people.

The school’s enrollment is from pre-k through grade 12 with 560 students from more than 24 different nations. Its primary focus is to provide for the educational needs of missionary families serving in Asia.

One of the real privileges of our ministry is that we get to partner with families who are on the cutting edge of evangelism.

By caring for and providing their children with a quality education at Faith Academy, we are investing in God’s Kingdom work, allowing parents and families the opportunity to penetrate the darkness around us.

We are the rope holders in much the same way that you are as you pray for our ministry here in the Philippines and give of your tithes/offerings.

Pray that the students would have an appreciation and understanding of their parents’ ministry and that parents would have wisdom in how to balance family and ministry needs.

Pray that they would have a personal relationship with Christ, putting Him first in their lives with a thankful attitude.

Pray for good cultural adjustments/transitions to their host culture as well as re-entry to their “home” culture and appreciation for their unique experiences.

Pray that God would continue to give Steve and Judy wisdom as they counsel and make decisions concerning the boarding program as it affects the lives of many.

Pray for our family as we begin to prepare for our upcoming one-year stateside assignment, starting this June, and all the logistics of housing, transportation, schooling and schedules.

Pray for all our kids’ adjustment back to living in the States and that it would be a positive experience and smooth transition for them all.
