Dear Brethren in the Lord: 
 
"And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations
which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship
the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.”  
Zechariah 14: 16) As reported, the Bible study and visitation at Sitio 
Mahinhin, Taytay keep moving in an encouraging pace.  Honelyn, Ernesto, 
Sherly’s family, Joel, Zeny and Arlyn are the participants in the study of 
the Word at Barrio Dolores.  Some senior citizens in the area showed up 
during the Bible teaching conducted at the Freedom Park last Monday, Nov. 12th.
They raised questions about the Gospel, forgiveness of sins, the need to turn 
away from an evil heart of unbelief and to return to God, Who will abundantly 
pardon.  They also inquired about the mercy and justice of God and the command 
to believe the Gospel, that the Lord Jesus Christ died for His elect, who’re 
chosen before the foundation of the world, justified by grace through the 
sanctification of the Holy Spirit and be glorified, that we might rejoice in 
the Hope of the Gospel and receive the Promise of Eternal Life--the Lord Jesus 
Christ. 
The Bible study in Ilocos Region I, located north-midwest of Luzon Island and 
Calabarzon, Region IV, located south of Manila, moves on fine and well 
according to schedule.  The families from these locations have been encouraged 
to invite their neighbors, relatives and friends to the core group.  Maritess, 
Amy, Aling Monica, Maureen, Edgar, Rowena, Rodilyn, Daisyree and Adri, strive 
to attend church with the brethren at Maybunga every Sunday.  Some of them are 
also present in the Bible study held every week at Poblacion Pateros, Makati, 
Block 3 Floodway, Raymundo area, Jenny’s and Brgy.  Antonio Abad.  Certain 
individuals just can’t make it to the worship service because of illness, flu 
and other health problems.  Sister Emelyn, Bro. Anto and Sister Mariel, who 
reside in Albay, Bicol in Region V, located south of Luzon Island, have shown 
interest to learn more about the doctrine of grace and other Bible truths.  
Bro. Anto is experiencing some form of breathing and respiratory problem, 
that makes him physically weary and weak.  He will soon get a doctor’s 
appointment at the medical clinic in his hometown.  A church visitor, Eva 
Marquez keeps her good attendance during the Sunday and Wednesday worship in 
GMA.  Two weeks ago, Sister Dhing and Sister Daisy said goodbye to the brethren 
in Cavite.  They flew to Kuwait to work as contractual employees in a service-
oriented firm there.  The Bible study at the Alabanza home in Cabuyao, Laguna 
continues every Saturday afternoon with 10 school teachers in attendance.  
Please remember these precious souls in your faithful prayers. 
We thank the Lord for the brethren at Grace Baptist Church in Mt.Vernon, 
Georgetown, KY, South Irvine Baptist Church, Irvine, KY, Ocoonita 
Missionary Baptist Church in Jonesville, VA, Bryan Station Baptist 
Church, Lexington, KY and the other brethren from the Lords’ Churches of 
like faith and order, for your continued financial support and most 
especially for your faithful prayers in our behalf and the Lords’ work. 
May we grow stronger in God’s grace as we wait for His soon return. 
"Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great 
God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;" (Titus 2:13) 
In His glorious service, 
Bro. Ed Quetua
