Working closely with Pastor Zaldy Castillo, Pastor Isaac Melis, and the Stepping Stones, their focus is to deal with issues that deal with teens in an ever changing world. IMPACT meets every Friday 7:30pm-9:30pm at First Filipino Baptist Church. IMPACT ministries is welcome to all young people. Their goal is to create an impact in society and wherever they are despite their age.
1 Timothy 4:12 “Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity”
December 2020 Update
IMPACT has been doing well. We continue to have our weekly fellowships on Friday 7:30pm – 9:00pm through ZOOM. We maintain our monthly prayer meeting, small groups and bible studies. Occasionally, we have other Friday activities planned and have extended fellowship before and after we start our program.
School also started in september which all made us very stressed as the workload piled up, some members chose to go to in-person school and some members have also started working. Our attendance for fellowships has been inconsistent lately due to the busy schedules of our members (during summer and quarantine more members were available). Some still attend from time to time but have been blessed as we have gained a few more members. Please pray for everyone’s safety and good health.
Our in person meet up on Dec. 5 was cancelled due to the city lockdown, which made everyone pretty sad as we weren’t all able to have our gift exchange. But everyone understood the circumstances. Praying for another opportunity to have an in-person meeting with our youth members some day. Please pray for everyone to have hope.
Please pray for our group members as we find that this is a difficult time to get through. Pray for the mental, physical and most importantly, spiritual health of our members.
