“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” These words from Psalm 46:1 have echoed through time, a testament to God’s faithfulness as a promise-keeper. His presence continues to offer comfort and hope in suffering.
It was a privilege to serve as His hands and feet by reaching out to the vulnerable residents of Kanlungan sa Pasig on October 5, 2024.
This facility provides shelter and support to children, women, the elderly, adults, teen moms, and victims of violence and abuse. It offers temporary residential care, diagnostic services, basic social services, and quality healthcare.
We were blessed to engage with the shelter residents, offering encouragement, prayer, and a listening ear.
These meaningful conversations paved the way for us to preach the gospel—the good news about Christ’s love that is available to all, regardless of the circumstance. This love welcomes those who place their faith in Christ to an eternal hope and a secure home forever.
Currently, Kanlungan sa Pasig is home to 149 individuals: 48 Children with Conflict with the Law (11-18+ years old), 80 Children in Need of Special Protection (0-18+ years old), and 21 Adults and Elderly (20-89 years old).
Let us continue to pray for them and trust in God’s power to nurture the seeds we have sown. We look forward to serving with more volunteers in our next outreach in December.
May we all remain vessels of God’s refuge and strength, a present help that endures in and out of troubles—through all of life’s seasons.
