BEARING FRUITS IN SEASON OR OUT OF SEASON

Can be likened to a poor family that is experiencing real hardship, this small and struggling pioneering Orthodox Community of the Holy Theophany Orthodox Mission still shows life - the very ethos of Orthodoxy is evident; that even in the midst of persecution and hardship, two new converts are added to the flock.  

Tatay Rene, now Nectan and Lea who is Maria now were just baptized and Christmated today, October 13, 2013 at the biggest baptismal font in the whole world - the Pacific Ocean.  "Maski papan-o sa butnga man san masakiton na kamutangan nakapaluwas baya man sin buhay. Maski luway-luway, maski inanay padagos na mabubuhay sa herak nin Kagurangnan na marhay."  "Doxa si o Theo!"
