Testimony:

I was born in a fundamental Christian family. My father was the only reverend in the area. I was raised in a strict Christian home. From my childhood I didn’t want to follow in his footsteps. All my friends had freedom; I wanted to be a medical doctor. God had different purposes for me. One night reading the scripture, I cried the whole night. My father finally woke me and I told him I didn’t want to do this but God was calling me to preach the word. I worked as a librarian after my education and did missions. I decided to do more schooling in worship in the Philippines. Afterwards I began to work with youth discipling them and giving them vision for their life. In 2020 I began to train other pastors in evangelism. Recently war came to my village and we had to leave for another state. In 2023 a friend contacted my wife about how we needed to know OSP and how they do evangelism and discipleship. He introduced me to Gilbert. I like OSP because my passion is to help people to disciple others. The indigenous way of sharing the gospel is the best way to share. God’s word will move faster. I love the method of local people sharing with their community.
