"Here Am I, Send Me"

As evening settles across the world, our hearts are thousands of miles away in the Philippines.

For many, today was just another day. For others, it was a day of uncertainty. A day of wondering where tomorrow's meal will come from, how school fees will be paid, or how a family will recover from hardship, flooding, illness, or loss.

Years ago, God placed a burden on our hearts. It was never about building a name. It was always about reaching people.

From Italy to the Philippines and throughout Asia, Pilgrim Outreach Ministries International has sought to be the hands, feet, eyes, ears, and voice of Jesus Christ to those who need Him most.

There are days when the road seems long. There are days when the needs far exceed our resources. Yet we continue because souls matter.

One of my favorite reminders is this:

"The size of the need should never determine the size of our obedience." — Pastor James Langston

And another:

"When God opens a door to serve, faith walks through it before the resources arrive." — Pastor James Langston

The prophet Isaiah answered God's call with five simple words:

"Here am I; send me."

Those words still echo today.

Please pray for the ministry. Pray for the people we serve. Pray for open doors, provision, protection, and souls to come to Christ.

And if God places it upon your heart, stand with us as we continue reaching the world one life, one family, and one community at a time.

  🕊️ Why Should You — or Shouldn’t You — Attend Church? I’ve spent most of my life surrounded by the rhythms of church life. From Sunday School and Vacation Bible School to revival meetings, baptisms, and Bible studies — I’ve seen the full spectrum of what it means to “go to church.” Church has been a regular part of my routine, my upbringing, and my community for as long as I can remember. But here’s the truth: It wasn’t until I surrendered my heart and life to Jesus Christ at the age of 14 that I truly understood the biblical reason for going to church. 🙋‍♂️ So Why Do We Go to Church? Some people go because they’re trying to check the box. Others go because they feel guilty if they don’t. Some just need a little spiritual boost to get through the week. But none of those are the right reasons. Yes, Hebrews 10:25 reminds us: “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the...

  🎉 A Birthday, A Ministry, A Mission: 67 Years of Life & 28 Years of Service 🎉 This Sunday, August 17 , I’ll be celebrating my 67th birthday —a milestone that fills my heart with gratitude to God. 🎂 But this celebration is more than candles on a cake; it represents a life poured out in service to Christ and to others. For 28 years of ministry , the Lord has given me the privilege of preaching, teaching, encouraging, and serving people across nations. For 21 years , my family and I ministered in Italy , where we saw God’s hand at work in ways that humbled us daily. Today, our journey has brought us to the Philippines , where we continue to serve as missionaries—bringing the light of Christ to communities that desperately need hope. 🌍 As I look back, I see God’s faithfulness in every step of the way. And as I look forward, I see opportunities—big opportunities—for impact, outreach, and transformation. 🌟 Why This Birthday Is Different This year, instead of asking for g...
