This larger map is a map of Fuga island, population of about 2000, approximate size 11 miles X 4 miles. It is reached from Claveria, Cagayan via small boats with outriggers.A few years ago I had a vision of this becoming another Iona, an even smaller island (1 mile X 3.5 mile) in Scotland which bec
ame the hub of European missionary activity in the 6th century. Is it God's vision to use this small, poor island for His mighty purposes? I certainly hope so. Iona is pictured here.Fuga island has no electricity, plumbing or health-care.
The folks here are very open to Christianity and our dream here is to see disciples made and another church on the other end of the island. I believe the enemies of Christ will put up a fight for this little place. Please join us in praying for:
1. Filipino's who will commit to seeing God's kingdom come to this island.
2. Permission to build another church on this island. One was restored by Church of the Holy Spirit, Orchard Hills, last year.
3. Open doors for evangelism and discipleship in all 7 villages of the island
Our team will share the gospel, pray for folks, give out eye glasses and vitamins, and enjoy eating and talking with the residents.
