During the past year, Edwin E. Vicente has been stretching himself to the breaking point as Director of the WEI Learning Center in San Fernando City, Philippines and as Minister of the new congregation that he established at the Center.
As a relatively new member of the church of Christ, Edwin wisely sought help from the veteran preaching elder of the San Fernando Church of Christ, Dr. John C. Quiniones.
On August 25, Edwin wrote, “I am happy to let you know that I, Brother John, and his wife had a formal discussion yesterday, and we agreed that he will start to be our preacher beginning the first Sunday of September.”
At 7:30 AM August 21, Brother John and his wife Feliciad joined Edwin and other Christians at Acupulco Beach and John baptized two of Edwin’s WEI students, Andrea and Ninio, in the surf.
After Bro. John preached and taught a Bible class at the WEI Learning Center, Edwin reported, “I and our new Christians were impressed by the way he presented the Study. At the age of 73, he teaches well. He presented the topic clearly so that everyone understood. He is the one who is fitted for this kind of calling because he retired as Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences and Director of the Research Department of Union Christian College here in San Fernando City. We are blessed to have him as our preacher.”
“Brother John has been preaching the gospel since 1971. In addition to serving as volunteer preacher at the Church of Christ in San Fernando City, he is currently a Bible Professor at Heritage Bible College at Baguio City and at Philippine Bible College, Baguio City.
More and more national preachers around the world are using WEI courses in their local outreach ministries. National preachers are our most efficient and productive partners in world evangelism. Your donations for printing and mailing these materials are appreciated.
