FilAm Mission Update:   The goal of Mililani Filam Mission is to spread the good news and make disciples in both local and international missions.   To fulfill this goal, Mililani Fil-Am is involved on different fronts.   Locally, MFABC works cooperatively with sister churches to reach Oahu for Jesus. International, MFABC reaches around the globe beginning with its daughter church in the Philippines, Sta Barbara Christian Fellowship.   Your support and prayers help sustain the disciple-making effort of MFABC in Hawaii and around the world.

• 1 Church plant- Sta Barbara Christian Fellowship in San Jose, Philippines
• 2. Education- Center of Biblical Studies, facebook
• 3. Adoption/Church plant- Pastor Rogelio-Aeta Tribe

This is the pdf report that came from CBS staff informing the church how the monies have been used (dated 10/05/2022).   Please continue to pray for CBS as it continues to train and grow up men and women in the ministry.   

Thank you to all Mililani Fil-Am partners who uphold CBS in prayer and financial support.    

Background:   Pastor Bong Abagon had his early seminary influence with the First Fundamental Baptist Bible Institute of Project 6, Quezon City.   The Lord has it that a new seminary was born in 1995 which the majority of Pastor Bong's professors and ministry colleague was a part of.  Since then, many kababayans like the Ormeos of California and Filipino churches in America like ours have sent prayers and support to CBS.
