The Valbuenas: March 2025
March 2025
Dear Friends,
Greetings from the Valbuenas in the Philippines! I realized I have not sent out an update in such a crazy long time. I feel terrible and hate for anyone of our friends, family and faithful supporters to think that you are not appreciated. I thank God for you all often! Thank you for understanding my slothfulness in keeping you all posted.
The Lord is continually blessing and adding to the ministry. I praise God for our adult children who are a tremendous blessing and asset in the various ministries. Hannah and Ruel are doing wonders in the Subic Bay Children’s Home. We recently took in several more children who were rescued from an abusive environment. We appreciate your prayers as we work with the children as they navigate their inner turmoil and accept all that they have gone through and come to the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Timothy and Bianca have been working tirelessly in our bible basketball ministry (AMAGOH). There are sports clinics, games, training camps all throughout the week and every activity has a dedicated hour to preaching God’s word and teaching godly character traits. Our relief and rescue operation (Project Dorcas) is focusing, at the moment, on single mothers in the 17 Barangays of Olongapo City. We have provided workshops in candle making and making dish soap. Each mother receives a starter kit that will help her begin a small business. During every meeting we start out with a bible study and each of our ladies of our church will set their sights on several of the mothers to follow-up on. Our main goal is that they will come to know the Lord Jesus Christ and we will disciple them in their faith. There is also our Saturday feeding centers to which we have added new locations. The Lord has also blessed our church plants and we have now built six churches.
I would like to ask that you remember us in prayer as Odek and I (Annalisa) and our youngest Eliza will make a two week trip to the US. We will tend to family matters and at the same time we would like to give a personal update to supporting churches and/or present the ministry to new churches while we are there. We will be in Houston so it would have to be near there. We arrive April 1st and fly out on April 17, which, btw, is Eliza’s 13th birthday :). That will give us two Sundays (04/06 and 04/13) and two Wednesdays (04/09 and 04/16) there. If you or anyone you know could help us fill those dates that would be such a blessing. Please send me a message here or you may also reach us through text or phone call at this number: 314 745-9419.
Thank you so very much for your prayers, Love and support.
In Christ,
Annalisa Fulfer-Valbuena
