Video Documentation of my father’s 70th “Surprise” Birthday Celebration

This 70th Birthday Celebration was organized by the churches and individuals whom my father’s ministry was touched by the sharing of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Much thanks to Mng Joana Kis-ing being the main coordinator and planner of this event and Minac Baptist Church who prepared and hosted the occasion, being the first church my father pioneered. And to all who took part in this, we thank you all! (we can not name you all ngem ni Apo ti makin amo ken mang-subalit kadakayo).

My father was born June 2, 1953 and to correct his spiritual birthday, it was on February 6, 1976 when he placed his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior (and not what I said to Ptr. Melchor, because I wasn’t sure then). His first ministry in teaching / preaching was in 1976 at Camp 6 for a month after his conversion and on 1978, he joined Ptr. Dawal in the Pocket Testament League. He and Ptr. Dawal roamed around showing films and preaching the gospel. Some of the stories or personal experiences with my father are narrated on the videos below as they reminisce the times they were with my father or have encountered his ministry / service.

(note: Sorry, wasn’t able to take all videos, but here are videos of others that I was able to acquire from my sister Jochebed and her husband Japhet and from Minac Baptist Church. And oh, sorry if you can’t understand, because most of them spoke in the Ibaloi or Nabaloi Dialect)
