Ministry Focus: We believe in using the arts to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Over the years we have partnered with the Bible Christian
Church of Pampanga to help plant churches. In fact, the main church itself was planted with the assistance of one of our teams years ago. Since
that time the Lord has used teams to reach out to the community and as recent as January launched a new daughter church in San Isidro as a result. We look forward to the next chapter in our partnership with them.
