Ozamis
We are preparing for a Huge Harvest in Mindanao!
An Eternal Harvest!

Special Note and request from Pastor Tony!
We have the opportunity to break the back of the devil’s religious tyranny in Northern Mindanao this month in one dynamic swoop by training 170 of God’s finest to win souls and Multiply!

First of all I want you to know this is a two for one set of seminars! What a bargain! We will fly to Cagayan de Oro then go by bus to Ozamis City for the first seminar of 100 Pastors, April 24-26. This is a real opportunity to kick the devil where it hurts (Win more souls!) The Pastors are hungry to be equipped to win the people to the Lord and learn how to multiply themselves by training some of their members. With God’s grace they will win approximately 5,000 plus souls during the 3 day seminar.

After graduation we will take another bus ride to Oroquieta City for the next seminar of between 60 to 70 pastors, April 27-29. Same scenario, we do the training and literally thousands will be saved. These two seminars will ignite a wave of evangelism that potentially can sweep that area for Jesus. Creating a perpetual stream of new souls every month till the region is won for Jesus! These seminars will cost us approximately $2,000 total because they are back to back and only about a 2 hour bus ride from each other. Normally we’d spend up to $1,500 for each, so we save time and money with a huge impact! We need sponsors or a sponsor for this set of seminars immediately. When you sow into the souls of men, you are making an eternal imprint that will last for eternity. There’s nothing more important! Jesus sowed His life into the souls of men! You can sow into the souls of men with this and many more opportunities by partnering with us on a monthly basis sharing in all these seminars making your own eternal imprint. Just do what you can and help us build the Kingdom of God together, Hallelujah!

In God’s grace and grip, Tony

Mindanao

Ozamis and Oroquieta City in Northern Mindanao

Misamis Occidental
Batches 181 and 182
We have just scheduled 2 batches of Stealth Evangelism for the last of April in Misamis Occidental, northern Mindanao.

The first batch is a gathering of 100 pastors coming from different churches and denominations in Ozamis City. It has been organized by a graduate of Stealth Evangelism from Batch 176 in Davao City held on March 7 of this year. Bishop Balili with his 4 pastors traveled by car 6 hours from Cagayan de Oro in order to join that class that made him fired up for evangelism and he vowed to bring the Stealth Program to the whole of Mindanao through his network of over 700 pastors. He has actually organized 6 classes in different locations which are due in the next few months with 51 different barangays (districts). Ozamis is predominantly Catholic having the Spaniards influence and the presence of Spanish garrison during the 18th century, the time where the pirate activities were rampant and needed to be controlled by the garrison.

Ozamis is part of Misamis Occidental, whose name derived from “MISA” which meant Catholic Mass thereby making Roman Catholicism the predominant faith of the people of Misamis Occidental having 70% affiliation and second most members are with the Aglipayan Church with 20% while several Protestant Churches as well as Islam are the minorities that represent only 10%. Misamis Occidental has a population of 602,126 people, that’s about 750 inhabitants per square mile. The dense population along the coast consists mainly of migrants from Cebu and Bohol.

The 2nd batch is in the capital city of Misamis Occidental which is Oroquieta City where 60-70 pastors are eagerly awaiting to be equipped. With the Protestant Church as a minority in the region, there is a huge task to pull it up significantly and raise the numbers of born again Christians. With the vast majority believing in Jesus and in the Holy Bible, the season is ripe to bring them into a relationship with Jesus. These 2 classes in a row (Monday to Wednesday – Ozamis and Thursday to Saturday in Oroquieta), will certainly launch a revival in the region, an immediate result of 8-10 thousand new souls being led to the Lord during the class and 30-40 thousand more souls when these pastors do the training/practicums in their churches. Imagine training 10 reapers each per church of 160 churches. That is an additional 4,000 + souls per week plus the countless ones they will win during their monthly practicums. WOW, the numbers are unimaginable but GOD is in the business of multiplication! In such a short span of time, there will be a rapid increase of new churches planted in the next 6 months. All because these pastors attended the Stealth Evangelism Seminar. And in a year’s time, Ozamis and Oroqueta City, with a combined population of 240,000 (2015 Census) can be conquered for Jesus! Our Lord and Savior’s blood certainly did not flow in vain.

It’s all worth our resources, blood, sweat, and tears poured out into these 2 classes. And those who support us financially will share in that harvest of souls and where there is harvest, there is abundance and prosperity!

I pray that the Lord shall multiply our generous committed sponsors and they in turn, shall reap more than a hundred fold in this eternal harvest!

Much blessing to you all,

Praise the Lord!

Fire insurance claim finally released!

 
Although not for the full amount and over 13 and a half months later (but from what we are told we got them to pay more than most people do here in the Philippines) we have enough to rebuild a School/Mission Center. Can’t build it back the way it was, but we can shrink it down some and keep going! We placed the funds in time deposit to preserve it till we start to rebuild. We are presently working on the plans. Now please pray with us as we look for the right people to work with us. We are seeking people that are skilled and also have the integrity to complete the work. Love you, Calli

Tony in Makati Class

Pastor Tony teaching at the class we held in Makati, the business center of Manila.

Urgent Message from Tony and Calli!
What am I here on this earth for?
This year has started off with a bang, in that we have anywhere from 3 to 5 Mobile Seminars scheduled every month. When we do a seminar there are invitations during every one of them to come and do a seminar in other locations. Some times 2 to 3 invites. This means our schedule is filling up for months in advance to do seminars all over the Philippines. Well, if we do 4 mobile seminars every month the cost is between $5,000 to $6,000 per month. Our total income is between $2,000 to $2,500 monthly from partners. The rest comes from our personal Social Security and about $2,000 from rental income which is not always there, because of expenses and vacancies. In other words we are running full blast at a $3,500 deficit per month and we refuse to stop. I’ll die first! I don’t want to be here on this earth unless we are helping these pastors to grow and become self-sufficient in their ministries and lives. We can’t just stop or slow down because the world is 9/10’s lost and going to hell. We cannot give up or slow down no matter what, we need your help Now!!!

We’d like you to ask yourself one question, “What amount could I give on a monthly basis that would not impede anything else going on in my life.” Sometimes people don’t give anything because they think it’s too little. If everyone that we know would realize that something is better than nothing, I truly believe that the deficit that we’ve been experiencing would be obliterated and the kingdom of darkest will shake in fear from the results. To give you an idea, every month we see 5,000 plus souls won to the Lord just doing the seminars. That doesn’t include the residual effect of the seminars in the local churches that participate. 35 families giving $100 a month would do it. 100 families giving $35 a month would do it. Please pray about it and pray for us.

You can be a part of this battle for men’s souls by joining us with your monthly support helping us reach out to pastors to train them how to win this lost and dying world.

Love you all, Tony

Remy Class Trio

Pastora Remy teaching and with two of our recent classes.

Pastora Remy Reflects
on Recent Seminars!
We are now on the 5th batch in 6 weeks and the sense of achievement and fulfillment overflow in our hearts that the physical exhaustion and fatigue came unnoticed. Glory to God that despite the odds with 4 batches in a row God is faithful in meeting the rising cost of these seminars, we are able to fulfill its purpose of equipping attendees not only to be powerful but unstoppable soul winners.

In Davao City batch 174, a pastor’s daughter and a leader in their church had an eye surgery 3 weeks prior to the seminar. It has been her ardent desire to win souls but she is not effective in memorizing long verses, so that she considered herself as a failure in evangelism. So despite her blurred vision she attended. During her first 2 practicums she had zero presentations!!! Reason? Her vision was impaired and cannot read the Bible. With loud sobs and tears she knelt down to the Lord for help. She was able to memorize the 6 steps including the 3 verses!!! She graduated as the top soul winner for winning 62 souls to the Lord. She became so addicted to soul winning she missed her dinner and skipped breakfast the next day to do the practicum. A young evangelist at the age of 17 is born – sis Jessiah! She can win millions of souls in her life time as a result of attending this 3 day seminar HALLELUJAH!!

In Cordova Cebu Batch 173 a pastor finally won the respect and the souls of his immediate family and relatives which he had been working on for years…they were impressed that he can now read English. Ptr Ernie 79 years old memorized the steps and the 357 magnum that it looked like he was reading them from the Bible (He is illiterate by the way, never been to a formal school). Impressed and realizing the command of Jesus to be born again the whole family was led to the Lord. What a joy to have the assurance that your whole household is saved. Glory to God!!

Every time we finish a class there is at least 2-3 invitations to conduct the class to another location. This means our calendar for 2017 is full and loaded with 3-4 classes in a month. The demand is rising which is tantamount to rising costs. We have increased food supplements and vitamins (lol but true) as we are in our golden ages, to cope with the physical demand. A rabbi said this could be the last jubilee and we need to double time winning the lost before Jesus comes.

I feel the urgency of winning souls and I have faith that as we do God’s business He will provide. How blessed are the people who partner with us as their return on investments come from our Great Source and it counts for eternity! As I remember the fact that a soul cost the blood of Jesus the more I am convicted to pursue this ministry with all our sweat, tears and blood in the trainings which also produce Jessiahs and Ernies.

Praise God He will fan the flames, pour gasoline on the fires of these mobile seminars thru our partners who have the same kingdom and eternal mindset!!!

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!

Home Office

Tony, Al and Remy in the office, getting the materials ready for the next seminar.

New Home / Office!
Just got moved into Erick’s house. Office is squeezed into his little living room and over flows into the adjoining garage. Tight, but it works, and from here we can easily oversee the building process on the mission center when it starts. I know we keep saying the insurance may fund any day, but we really do think it could be this next week. So keep praying!

Pastor Steve Hill and his son Judah dropped by for lunch and fellowship last week while they were in the Philippines. Always a blessing to see that sweet family!

God bless & love you, Calli

Fellowshipping with our dear friends Steve and Judah Hill.

Fire Anniversary

Out of the ashes comes beauty!
February-first anniversary of tragedy
On February 17, 2016 our mission center burnt to the ground destroying everything and tragically taking the life of Felicity our precious daughter. At the time the only thing that survived in the fire was our training materials and Bibles that were in the only room in the house that didn’t completely burn. It was a miracle. We did our first seminar 6 days after the fire and 3,094 souls were saved. We made a commitment in our hearts that we would not succumb to the fire’s devastation. This month is the first anniversary of that tragic event and we baptized that event with the souls of 2,516 precious people last week! There will be 11 more of these baptisms in the next 3 months! Do we hear an enormous Amen?

God is so good!
We have 12 Stealth Evangelism seminars in the next 3 months from one end of the Islands to the other. God is moving in a powerful way in these pastor training seminars. Pastors are having mind set changes, breakthroughs such as going from a tendency to shy away from talking to strangers to an incredible boldness to reach out to the lost with their new found witnessing tool.

Also learning special programs to implement in their churches to make their church grow through the harvest of men’s souls. This is so strategic to winning this nation to the Lord so they can move on to the ultimate call that God has placed on the Philippines to go forth and make disciples of all the nations.

This is the commandment of the Lord in Matthew 28:19-20 to all of us. It has been prophesied 100’s of times that the Philippines would be the launching pad for missions to Asia and the rest of the world. When we win the Philippines to the Lord the overseas workers will be living epistles going out to every nation as tentmaker missionaries under the guise of whatever job they will do. Right now there are more than 12 Million Filipino’s abroad across the world. That’s right, they will be the largest missionary force ever and it’s coming soon with your help!

We just completed a seminar in Sarangani this week and it was amazing with 2,516 new believers won to the Lord in the 3 day seminar. You could have financed that seminar for $1,200 and reaped the eternal harvest with us. I had several special gifts in January that we used to partially finance that Seminar. Folks we have 11 more of these seminars in the next 3 months and honestly we need help with them all. Just imagine if you had sponsored the seminar below how you’d feel right now. Please read about this seminar and it’s amazing impact and ask yourself if you would like to be a part of the next one. I don’t think there is a better way to invest your money than into men’s souls, Amen? You will love this story so take time to read it.

We leave this afternoon for the next seminar in Tacloban which is where one of the largest Typhoons ever (Yolanda) hit 3 years ago and destroyed the city. We will train 100 pastors in the next 3 days. It promises to be a huge evangelism thrust. It’s not too late to sponsor this one for we are going by faith to do the seminar. I’ve already purchased our plane tickets for the staff and myself and we are so excited about what God is going to do. Please help! Each of these seminars cost between $1,200 and $1,500. There is always a huge harvest!

Love you all – Tony Poole

Sarangani Seminar

Sarangani
First of 12 seminars
in the next 3 months!

By Pastora Remy Modeno
A total of 29 pastors and 10 leaders graduated from the life changing seminar on Stealth Evangelism held at the Glan Training Center in Sarangani Province. A total of 2,516 new believers were led to the Lord using the 357 Magnum Technique.

The batch awardee, Pastor Carlos Batang, 86 years old, did the highest number of presentations of the Gospel, recording 117 presentations and 117 souls won.

A pastor for more than 60 years and never attended any formal schooling, except a literacy program, a short course on reading and writing, standing tall in front of the batch, he said that he cannot believe himself that he will learn this technique being illiterate and he was surprised he won 117 souls.

He was so overwhelmed that he extended his practicum hours till 12midnight (He stayed over in the venue and slept there because it would cost him 150 pesos transportation). He went to hospitals, bus terminals and he would wait for the bus to meet and greet the passengers as they got off their bus to share the Gospel. He was in tears when he said happily that finally he won his relatives and friends to the Lord who used to ignore the Gospel. Alleluia!!!

No age barrier for this 357 Magnum technique! He is even flawless in his presentation, which posed a challenge to the others younger than him. By the way, he was the oldest student in this class but emerged Number 1!!!

Sarangani Seminar

Glory to God
for this anointed tool!
Erlinda Bueno, a teacher and a church leader claims she has been a soul winner since 1985 but it is only thru these practicums that she won so many souls to the Lord. As the lost souls cannot escape the reality and the command of the Lord to be born again. It is a strategy that cannot miss its target. Glory to God for this anointed evangelism tool.

Pastor’s mindset change!
Ptr Roger Axalan declared his mindset, and attitude towards his ministry has changed. He used to feel heavy and burdensome in his ministry and never thought that soul winning could ever become this easy for him. He now visualizes a much larger congregation in his church.

Over all, the flame of evangelism has started to grow in a big fire, each of the students are eager to go out and do the practicums and even extended their time to win more souls.

Despite the language problem in the lectures, as 70% of the attendees are tribal belonging to Balaan Tribe, the Holy Spirit moved and gave them understanding and wisdom for them to apply it. They had difficulty in the Cebuano dialect but flawless in their own dialect.

Truly, they have shown that they have become fanatic and addicted to winning souls. Glory to God for this batch, We are so blessed and proud with each one of them.
