Tinoc, Ifugao is located in the northern tip of the Cordillera mountain.. It is nestled in a beautiful mountain spine that has a clear view of Mount Pulag during sunny and fogless days. During this particular mission trip, the weather denied us the beautiful sight of Mount Pulag due to heavy fog and rainy weather.

Sometimes things happen so fast that you can't keep people updated... you just have to go with it. We are working with partners from Iloilo, GCF, Bukal, VBMB, and more in doing disaster work in Tublay, Anda, Daramuangan, and elsewhere. Several of our group were trained by the Navigators for disaster relief counseling. Another trainer from the Virginia Baptist Mission Board will be joining us next week for further training and crisis care work. AV-STM training has been moved to start November 7th, for four Saturdays. The Tinoc, Ifugao mission is still on target to happen. There is a lot more going on as well. But right now, we will just leave it at that and hope give more information when we have more time. Our apologies.
